Developing with Docker

Docker is a powerful tool that can be used to quickly spin up an OpenSearch cluster. When you follow the steps to run OpenSearch with Docker, you will find the Security Plugin already included in the basic distribution.

Configuring Security

By default, the Docker installation of OpenSearch does not enable the Security plugin. In order to enable Security development, you will need set DISABLE_SECURITY_PLUGIN=false, as well as change DISABLE_INSTALL_DEMO_CONFIG and DISABLE_SECURITY_DASHBOARDS_PLUGIN. This will install the demo certificates, and allow you to develop with realistic Security configurations. An example of a completely configured docker-compose file is shown below.

Warning: You should never use the demo certificates for a production environment. Instead, you will need to follow the steps on configuring security before using the cluster for production.

Mounting Local Volumes

In order to test development changes with an OpenSearch Docker-installation, you will need to mount the volumes in your docker-compose file.

To update your cluster to have local changes, follow these steps:

  1. First you will need to make changes in your local opensearch-project/security repository. For this example, assume your fork is cloned into a directory called security.
  2. After you make changes to your cloned repository, you will need to run ./gradlew assemble. This will create a .jar file you can mount into the Docker container. The file will be located at ./security/build/distributions/opensearch-security-<OPENSEARCH_VERSION>.0-SNAPSHOT.jar, where the <OPENSEARCH_VERSION> field is simply the OpenSearch distribution.
  3. You will then need to navigate to your docker-compose.yml file where you are running you OpenSearch cluster from. For this example, let us assume this is in another directory called opensearch-docker.
  4. Modify the compose file, so that in the volumes: section of each node configuration (the default configuration will have opensearch-node1 and opensearch-node2), you have a new line which reads ~/security/build/distributions/opensearch-security-<OPENSEARCH_VERSION>.0-SNAPSHOT.jar:/usr/share/opensearch/plugins/opensearch-security/opensearch-security-<OPENSEARCH_VERSION>.0.jar. This line should be added to the volumes section of all nodes in the compose file. You will not need to add it to the opensearch-dashboards section.
  5. You can now restart the Docker container by running docker-compose down -v and docker-compose up. Your changes will now be live in the OpenSearch cluster instance.

Example docker-compose

This is an example of a completely configured docker-compose file for a local installation of the 2.5.0 version of OpenSearch.
