I saw that Ignition has a docker image on docker hub (https://hub.docker.com/r/inductiveautomation/ignition) . Looks nice for testing possibly but was wondering if you can setup volumes to persist Gateway data? And also wouldn’t mind testing with Kubernetes if possible.
I know that kcollins has an image as well ( https://hub.docker.com/r/kcollins/ignition#How-to-persist-Gateway-data ) and recommends mounting here /var/lib/ignition/data . Would this also be the same for the inductiveautomation/ignition image?
Not quite - on the official images, the entire service is installed to /usr/local/bin/ignition, rather than the ‘exploded’ path we used in previous versions - so the equivalent path would be /usr/local/bin/ignition/data. Not that Ignition as a whole has some limitations with single volume persistence like this; backing up the /data directory will capture the internal database and projects, which is 90% of what you would want to restore, but it does omit any custom JDBC driver files, modules or Python libraries you’ve installed (all of which are in ${install dir}/user-lib/).
That sounds good, thank you! I’ll give it a shot
