Spring Boot and Docker Containers

With microservices based deployment, the first step is to dockerize your software. In our case, we want to create docker images for each of our microservices so that we can orchestrate them better. I have decided to use container registry provided by Google to build and upload the images.

The first thing we need to do is to create a dependency to spring-cloud-dependencies pom. Then we add a dependency to spring-cloud-config-server. Then we add a dockerfile-maven-plugin. Now we need to keep in mind that in the configuration for dockerfile-maven-plugin we need to provide the repository. If can see that our repository starts with gcr.io/. This makes sure that the image after creation is pushed to the container registry hosted by Google. If you want to have some other registry, you need to provide it in the form hostname:portnumber.
Now we can issue the following command the docker image would be build and pushed to google registry.

$ mvn deploy -DskipTests
