Running with persistence

Local directories

Alternatively you can use volumes to make the changes persistent and change the configuration.

mkdir -p /srv/mqtt/config/
mkdir -p /srv/mqtt/data/
mkdir -p /srv/mqtt/log/
# place your mosquitto.conf in /srv/mqtt/config/
# NOTE: You have to change the permissions of the directories
# to allow the user to read/write to data and log and read from
# config directory
# For TESTING purposes you can use chmod -R 777 /srv/mqtt/*
# Better use "-u" with a valid user id on your docker host

Copy the files from the config directory of this project into /src/mqtt/config. Change them as needed for your particular needs.

docker run -ti -p 1883:1883 -p 9001:9001 \
-v /srv/mqtt/config:/mqtt/config:ro \
-v /srv/mqtt/log:/mqtt/log \
-v /srv/mqtt/data/:/mqtt/data/ \
--name mqtt toke/mosquitto

Volumes: /mqtt/config, /mqtt/data and /mqtt/log

Docker Volumes for persistence

Using Docker Volumes for persistence.

Create a named volume:

docker volume create --name mosquitto_data

Now it can be attached to docker by using -v mosquitto_data:/mqtt/data in the Example above. Be aware that the permissions within the volumes are most likely too restrictive.
