Crowd is where you manage users from multiple directories - Active Directory, LDAP, Crowd - via a single admin console, and control application permissions from the same place.

This Docker container makes it easy to get an instance of Crowd up and running.
Based on Official Ubuntu Docker Image with some minor hack:
- Packaging by Packer Docker builder and Ansible provisioner in single layer
- Handle
ENTRYPOINT
with catatonit
For the CROWD_HOME
directory that is used to store the repository data
(amongst other things) we recommend mounting a host directory as a data
volume,
or via a named volume if using a docker version >= 1.9.
Volume permission is NOT managed by entry scripts. To get started you can use a data volume, or named volumes.
Start Atlassian Crowd Server:
# Pull latest image
docker pull alvistack/crowd-6.1
# Run as detach
docker run \
-itd \
--name crowd \
--publish 8095:8095 \
--volume /var/atlassian/application-data/crowd:/var/atlassian/application-data/crowd \
alvistack/crowd-6.1
Success. Crowd is now available on http://localhost:8095
Please ensure your container has the necessary resources allocated to it. We recommend 2GiB of memory allocated to accommodate both the application server and the git processes. See Supported Platforms for further information.
To upgrade to a more recent version of Crowd Server you can simply stop the Crowd container and start a new one based on a more recent image:
docker stop crowd
docker rm crowd
docker run ... (see above)
As your data is stored in the data volume directory on the host, it will still be available after the upgrade.
Note: Please make sure that you don't accidentally remove the crowd container and its volumes using the -v option.
For evaluations you can use the built-in database that will store its
files in the Crowd Server home directory. In that case it is sufficient
to create a backup archive of the directory on the host that is used as
a volume (/var/atlassian/application-data/crowd
in the example above).
