JDBC connection arguments for UnifiedViews FE

[joasilva]

Hi!

Let me just suggest a change in your the docker run command of Unified Views FE from:

docker run --name unified-views
-p 8080:8080 --link my-mysql:mysql
-v /path/to/lib:/unified-views/lib
-v /path/to/dpus:/dpus
-e UV_DATABASE_SQL_URL=jdbc:mysql://188.12.34.56:3306/unified_views_db?characterEncoding=utf8
-e UV_DATABASE_SQL_USER=unified_views_user
-e UV_DATABASE_SQL_PASSWORD=unified_views_pwd
-e MASTER_API_USER=master
-e MASTER_API_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword
-d tenforce/unified-views

to:

docker run --name unified-views
-p 8080:8080 --link my-mysql:mysql
-v /path/to/lib:/unified-views/lib
-v /path/to/dpus:/dpus
-e UV_DATABASE_SQL_URL=jdbc:mysql://mysql:3306/unified_views_db?characterEncoding=utf8
-e UV_DATABASE_SQL_USER=unified_views_user
-e UV_DATABASE_SQL_PASSWORD=unified_views_pwd
-e MASTER_API_USER=master
-e MASTER_API_PASSWORD=mysecretpassword
-d tenforce/unified-views

The reason is that you're starting the default name for the BE host is "mysql":

$ docker exec -it backstabbing_hopper less /etc/hosts
