Configure Database

The above example uses --link to connect Taiga with a running postgres container. This is probably not the best idea for use in production, keeping data in docker containers can be dangerous.

Using Docker container

If you want to run your database within a docker container, simply start your database server before starting your Taiga container. Here is a simple example pulled from postgres's guide.

docker run --name taiga-postgres -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mypassword -d postgres

Using Database server

Use the following, required, environment variables for connecting to another database server:

  • -e TAIGA_DB_NAME=... (defaults to postgres)
  • -e TAIGA_DB_HOST=... (defaults to the address of a linked postgres container)
  • -e TAIGA_DB_USER=... (defaults to postgres))
  • -e TAIGA_DB_PASSWORD=... (defaults to the password of the linked postgres container)

The following environment variable is mandatory

  • -e TAIGA_DB_TIMEOUT=... (number of connexion try, each 250ms, by defautl 240 for 1 minute)

If the TAIGA_DB_NAME specified does not already exist on the provided PostgreSQL server, it will be automatically created the the Taiga's installation scripts will run to generate the required tables and default demo data.

An example docker run command using an external database:

docker run \
  --name mytaiga \
  -e TAIGA_DB_HOST=10.0.0.1 \
  -e TAIGA_DB_USER=taiga \
  -e TAIGA_DB_PASSWORD=mypassword \
  -itd \
  novanet/taiga
