Running with docker compose

[PaulRudin]

I'm experimenting with vineyard. I made an image from the following Dockerfile:

FROM python:3.11-slim

RUN pip install vineyard

CMD python -m vineyard --socket /var/run/vineyard.sock

I create a file:

touch /tmp/vineyard.sock

And my docker-compose.yml has a vineyard service:

vineyard:
    ...
    volumes:
      - type: bind
        source: /tmp/vineyard.sock
        target: /var/run/vineyard.sock

But in the logs I see:

20230420 12:20:38.759117     7 vineyardd.cc:107] Hello vineyard v0.14.0!

Unhandled exception:
   std::exception:what(): bind: Address already in use

How can I get this to work?

Is there's another services in the docker-compose yaml uses port 9600?

You can try disabling the vineyard's RPC services temporarily, by changing the command in dockerfile to

CMD python -m vineyard --socket /var/run/vineyard.sock -norpc

It wasn't the rpc. I changed as follows and this works:
In the dockerfile:

CMD python -m vineyard --socket /tmp/vineyard/vineyard.sock

In the compose file the mount is now:

volumes:
      - /tmp/vineyard:/tmp/vineyard

And with this setup vineyard starts OK, and in another service with the same volume mount I can connect a client.

Thanks for the feedback. I see why touch & mount /tmp/vineyard.sock cannot work: vineyardd requires the socket to be a UNIX-domain socket file, however touch /tmp/vineyard.sock creates an ordinary file, thus mounting the file doesn't work but mounting the directory is ok.

The error message needs to be improved, though.
