You can tail logs for a particular service:
dokku clickhouse:logs lollipop
By default, logs will not be tailed, but you can do this with the --tail flag:
dokku clickhouse:logs lollipop --tail
The default tail setting is to show all logs, but an initial count can also be specified:
dokku clickhouse:logs lollipop --tail 5
# usage
dokku clickhouse:link <service> <app> [--link-flags...]
flags:
-a|--alias "BLUE_DATABASE"
: an alternative alias to use for linking to an app via environment variable-q|--querystring "pool=5"
: ampersand delimited querystring arguments to append to the service link-n|--no-restart "false"
: whether or not to restart the app on link (default: true)
A clickhouse service can be linked to a container. This will use native docker links via the docker-options plugin. Here we link it to our playground
app.
NOTE: this will restart your app
dokku clickhouse:link lollipop playground
The following environment variables will be set automatically by docker (not on the app itself, so they won’t be listed when calling dokku config):
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_LOLLIPOP_NAME=/lollipop/DATABASE
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_LOLLIPOP_PORT=tcp://172.17.0.1:9000
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_LOLLIPOP_PORT_9000_TCP=tcp://172.17.0.1:9000
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_LOLLIPOP_PORT_9000_TCP_PROTO=tcp
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_LOLLIPOP_PORT_9000_TCP_PORT=9000
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_LOLLIPOP_PORT_9000_TCP_ADDR=172.17.0.1
The following will be set on the linked application by default:
CLICKHOUSE_URL=clickhouse://lollipop:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-clickhouse-lollipop:9000/lollipop
The host exposed here only works internally in docker containers. If you want your container to be reachable from outside, you should use the expose
subcommand. Another service can be linked to your app:
dokku clickhouse:link other_service playground
It is possible to change the protocol for CLICKHOUSE_URL
by setting the environment variable CLICKHOUSE_DATABASE_SCHEME
on the app. Doing so will after linking will cause the plugin to think the service is not linked, and we advise you to unlink before proceeding.
dokku config:set playground CLICKHOUSE_DATABASE_SCHEME=clickhouse2
dokku clickhouse:link lollipop playground
This will cause CLICKHOUSE_URL
to be set as:
clickhouse2://lollipop:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-clickhouse-lollipop:9000/lollipop
If you specify CLICKHOUSE_DATABASE_SCHEME
to equal http
, well also automatically adjust
CLICKHOUSE_URL` to match the http interface:
http://lollipop:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-clickhouse-lollipop:${PLUGIN_DATASTORE_PORTS[1]}
# usage
dokku clickhouse:unlink <service> <app>
flags:
-n|--no-restart "false"
: whether or not to restart the app on unlink (default: true)
You can unlink a clickhouse service:
NOTE: this will restart your app and unset related environment variables
dokku clickhouse:unlink lollipop playground
# usage
dokku clickhouse:set <service> <key> <value>
Set the network to attach after the service container is started:
dokku clickhouse:set lollipop post-create-network custom-network
Set multiple networks:
dokku clickhouse:set lollipop post-create-network custom-network,other-network
Unset the post-create-network value:
dokku clickhouse:set lollipop post-create-network
The lifecycle of each service can be managed through the following commands:
# usage
dokku clickhouse:connect <service>
Connect to the service via the clickhouse connection tool:
NOTE: disconnecting from ssh while running this command may leave zombie processes due to moby/moby#9098
dokku clickhouse:connect lollipop
# usage
dokku clickhouse:enter <service>
A bash prompt can be opened against a running service. Filesystem changes will not be saved to disk.
NOTE: disconnecting from ssh while running this command may leave zombie processes due to moby/moby#9098
dokku clickhouse:enter lollipop
You may also run a command directly against the service. Filesystem changes will not be saved to disk.
dokku clickhouse:enter lollipop touch /tmp/test
expose a clickhouse service on custom host:port if provided (random port on the 0.0.0.0 interface if otherwise unspecified)
# usage
dokku clickhouse:expose <service> <ports...>
Expose the service on the service's normal ports, allowing access to it from the public interface (0.0.0.0
):
dokku clickhouse:expose lollipop 9000 8123
Expose the service on the service's normal ports, with the first on a specified ip adddress (127.0.0.1):
dokku clickhouse:expose lollipop 127.0.0.1:9000 8123
# usage
dokku clickhouse:unexpose <service>
Unexpose the service, removing access to it from the public interface (0.0.0.0
):
dokku clickhouse:unexpose lollipop
# usage
dokku clickhouse:promote <service> <app>
If you have a clickhouse service linked to an app and try to link another clickhouse service another link environment variable will be generated automatically:
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_BLUE_URL=clickhouse://other_service:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-clickhouse-other-service:9000/other_service
You can promote the new service to be the primary one:
NOTE: this will restart your app
dokku clickhouse:promote other_service playground
This will replace CLICKHOUSE_URL
with the url from other_service and generate another environment variable to hold the previous value if necessary. You could end up with the following for example:
CLICKHOUSE_URL=clickhouse://other_service:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-clickhouse-other-service:9000/other_service
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_BLUE_URL=clickhouse://other_service:ANOTHER_PASSWORD@dokku-clickhouse-other-service:9000/other_service
DOKKU_CLICKHOUSE_SILVER_URL=clickhouse://lollipop:SOME_PASSWORD@dokku-clickhouse-lollipop:9000/lollipop
# usage
dokku clickhouse:start <service>

List all clickhouse services that are linked to the playground
app.
dokku clickhouse:app-links playground
# usage
dokku clickhouse:exists <service>
Here we check if the lollipop clickhouse service exists.
dokku clickhouse:exists lollipop
# usage
dokku clickhouse:linked <service> <app>
Here we check if the lollipop clickhouse service is linked to the playground
app.
dokku clickhouse:linked lollipop playground
# usage
dokku clickhouse:links <service>

Datastore backups are supported via AWS S3 and S3 compatible services like minio.
You may skip the backup-auth
step if your dokku install is running within EC2 and has access to the bucket via an IAM profile. In that case, use the --use-iam
option with the backup
command.
Backups can be performed using the backup commands:
# usage
dokku clickhouse:backup-set-public-key-encryption <service> <public-key-id>
Set the GPG
Public Key for encrypting backups:
dokku clickhouse:backup-set-public-key-encryption lollipop
# usage
dokku clickhouse:backup-unset-public-key-encryption <service>
Unset the GPG
Public Key encryption for backups:
dokku clickhouse:backup-unset-public-key-encryption lollipop
If you wish to disable the docker image pull
calls that the plugin triggers, you may set the CLICKHOUSE_DISABLE_PULL
environment variable to true
. Once disabled, you will need to pull the service image you wish to deploy as shown in the stderr
output.
Please ensure the proper images are in place when docker image pull
is disabled.
