Executing user scripts

It is possible to automate the execution of user code inside a container every time it starts. This can take the form of a dash script or the path to a script file.

This feature is controlled by two environment variables:

MAYAN_DOCKER_SCRIPT_PRE_SETUP

Optional. Executed after the container’s environment variables are configured but before the UID/GID setup, extra OS package installation and extra Python library installations. Executes the content as a script or call a script using the value as the filename.
MAYAN_DOCKER_SCRIPT_POST_SETUP

Optional. Executed after the container’s environment variables are configured, after the UID/GID setup, extra OS package installation and extra Python library installations but before launching the Mayan EDMS stack. Executes the content as a script or call a script using the value as the filename.

Examples:

As script content:

docker run \
-d \
--name mayan-edms \
--restart=always \
-p 80:8000 \
...
-e MAYAN_DOCKER_SCRIPT_PRE_SETUP='echo "Pre setup command" >/tmp/pre_setup_output.txt'
-v /docker-volumes/mayan-edms/media:/var/lib/mayan \
mayanedms/mayanedms:s4

As a script file:

echo 'echo "Pre setup script" >/tmp/pre_setup_output.txt' > /docker-volumes/mayan-edms/media/script.sh

docker run \
-d \
--name mayan-edms \
--restart=always \
-p 80:8000 \
...
-e MAYAN_DOCKER_SCRIPT_PRE_SETUP=/var/lib/mayan/script.sh
-v /docker-volumes/mayan-edms/media:/var/lib/mayan \
mayanedms/mayanedms:s4

With Docker Compose, make the changes in the env_file using the same format.

As script content:

MAYAN_DOCKER_SCRIPT_PRE_SETUP='echo "Pre setup command" >/tmp/pre_setup_output.txt'

As a script file:

MAYAN_DOCKER_SCRIPT_PRE_SETUP=/var/lib/mayan/script.sh
