Nexus Platform on Docker

This repo contains docker-compose files associated sample configuration for quickly standing up a number of Reference Architectures for the Nexus Platform components.

Ideal if you want to get hands on quickly :-)

Unless you have a license from Sonatype, you will only be able to use Neuxs Repository OSS.

If you don't have a trial license and would like one contact Sonatype.

What is the Nexus Platform?

When we refer to the Nexus Platform, we actually refer to three of Sonatype's core-products and their associated add-on packs. These are:

1. Neuxs Repository (either Neuxs Repository OSS or Nexus Repository Pro)
2. Nexus Lifecycle and it's add-on packs:
   • Advanced Development Pack
   • Advanced Legal Pack
   • Infrastructure as Code Pack
3. Nexus Firewall

For the full suite of products - check out www.sonatype.com.

How does this code work?

We utilise docker-compose profiles to allow you to quickly stand up the required containers to realise a specific refernece architecture.

Assuming you have [Docker Desktop](https:// 19.03.0+ (or similar) installed, you can simply run docker-compose passing the required profile. An example using the proxied profile might be:

docker-compose --profile=proxied up -d

Providing your Sonatype License

For most of the reference architecutres, you'll need a Sonatype license. If you have this, (it's a .lic) file you can use it through one of two methods:

1. Put your .lic file in config/sonatype-license-all.lic
2. Modify the path to your .lic file in the .env file:

   NEXUS_LICENSE_PATH=/your/path/to/your-sonatype.lic
