Sitecore Docker Examples

This repository contains companion code for the Sitecore Containers documentation. Together, these are meant to help you get started using Docker containers with Sitecore.

Briefly, here's what you'll find in this repo:

  • Example for running an out of the box Sitecore instance (see getting-started).
  • Example solution for creating custom Sitecore images, with recommended folder structure for container development (see custom-images).
  • Sample PowerShell scripts for container-based Sitecore instance preparation (init.ps1) and cleanup (clean.ps1).
  • Docker compose files for building Sitecore instances in various topologies (see custom-images).

Please refer to the Sitecore Containers documentation for complete details, including running the examples and recommended usage.

Steps to setup on the your local Windows machine:

  1. Download and install Docker Desktop for Windows: https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/windows-install/
  2. Create a folder on your local drive, e.g. 'C:\Sitecore Headless'
    • Open the folder 'C:\Sitecore Headless' in Windows File Explorer
    • Open Windows Powershell as Administrator
      • Execute the following powersell commands:
        • cd "C:\Sitecore Headless"
        • Copy-Item "C:\Sitecore Headless\docker-examples\GettingStartedSetup\SetupDependecies" "C:\Sitecore Headless" -Force;
        • Copy-Item "C:\Sitecore Headless\docker-examples\GettingStartedSetup\SitecoreHeadless_WithContainers.ps1" "C:\Sitecore Headless" -Force;
          • Manually copy your company's own license file into the "C:\Sitecore Headless\SetupDependecies" folder.
        • powershell.exe -executionpolicy bypass -file .\SitecoreHeadless_WithContainers.ps1 true true
          • Note the first 'true' param in the above command is for a $cleanInstall, i.e. removes the 'MyProject' folder instance created from any previous installation.
          • Note the second 'true' param the above command is for a $switchRunFolderSource (optional param), i.e. copies the content of the 'C:\Sitecore Headless\docker-examples\GettingStartedSetup\SetupDependecies\run' folder into the newly created 'MyProject' folder instance created from this installation.
            • The $switchRunFolderSource param is only if you require custom 'run' folder scripts, i.e. any script commands changes from 'powershell.exe -Command "& C:\tools\entrypoints\iis\Development.ps1' to 'powershell.exe -Command "& C:/tools/entrypoints/iis/Development.ps1'
              • Note this is only in instance when your windows instance an issue with the backslashes in the script command.
