Setup Keycloak Docker Container

Docker is becoming main streamline to package and deploy self sufficient application containers. It wrap up a piece of software in a complete file system that contains everything it needs to run: code, run-time, system tools, system libraries – anything you can install on a server. This guarantees that it will always run the same, regardless of the environment it is running in. The same Linux kernel and libraries can be shared between multiple containers running on the host.

Please visit my blog previous blog Install Docker to setup docker.

Let’s Started

Docker hub provides images for all the software and tools. let’s find out the Keycloak docker image.

There are many Keycloak Docker images available, but it is always better to go with the official release. As they are highly optimised, bug free and stable. You can download to your computer using pull command. After that we can list down the docker images. Let’s go with jboss/keycloak.

Run Keycloak Container

After an image has been downloaded, you may then run a container using the downloaded image with the run sub command. If an image has not been downloaded when docker is executed with the run sub command, the Docker client will first download the image, then run a container using it.

krishna@ubuntu:~$ docker run --name sso -d jboss/keycloak

Looks good. Our Keycloak Container is running now. As per the details from above logs.

Let’s verify the status of the container.

krishna@ubuntu:~$ docker ps

Access Method

Your command prompt should change to reflect the fact that you’re now working inside the container and should take this form

[jboss@9a46193f7a0c ~]$

Now you may run any command inside the container.

krishna@ubuntu:~$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND                  CREATED             STATUS              PORTS               NAMES
9a46193f7a0c        jboss/keycloak      "/opt/jboss/docker..."   8 minutes ago       Up 8 minutes        8080/tcp            sso
krishna@ubuntu:~$ 
krishna@ubuntu:~$ docker exec -it sso bash
[jboss@9a46193f7a0c ~]$ 

Keycloak Dashboard

Conclusion

VOWW…. We now have a Keyclaok instance running in a container.

Docker allocates a dynamic IP address on every running container. Whenever a container is restarted, you will get a new IP address. You can get the IP address range from the Docker network interface in the Linux box. To sort this issue there is an option called –link

    krishna@ubuntu:~$ docker run -p 8080:8080 -e KEYCLOAK_USER=admin -e KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD=admin –name sso -d jboss/keycloak

  2. thanks 🙂
    For all copy and past kiddies like me:
    it’s –name (double minus)

    i think some parser on this page converts minus minus — to another character

    docker run -p 8080:8080 -e KEYCLOAK_USER=admin -e KEYCLOAK_PASSWORD=admin –name sso -d jboss/keycloak
