Features

Java optisation tweaks

• Lucee 4's Java Agent is enabled for better memory management of compiled CFML code.

• JVM is set to use /dev/urandom as an entropy source for secure random numbers to avoid blocking Tomcat on startup.

• Tomcat is configured to skip the default scanning of Jar files on startup, significantly improving startup time.

Optimised for single-site application

The default configuration serves a single application for any hostname on the listening port. Multiple applications can be supported by editing the server.xml in the Tomcat config.

Spinning things up locally

You can build images locally using the Vagrant workbench provided, or using your own Docker tooling.

Note Workbench assumes: Virtualbox, git v1.6.5, vagrant v1.7.4

These instructions assume you have the parent Workbench up and running:

git clone git@github.com:lucee/lucee-dockerfiles.git
cd lucee-dockerfiles
vagrant up lucee45 lucee50 nginx45 nginx50

You don't have to bring up all the images in one fell swoop; for example, vagrant up lucee50 to just build Lucee 5.0.

Containers are forwarded onto the following ports:

lucee45 -> $ open http://workbench:8001/
lucee50 -> $ open http://workbench:8002/
nginx45 -> $ open http://workbench:8003/
nginx45 -> $ open http://workbench:8004/

Alternatively, you can run a make-shift workbench locally. This will only work if you DO NOT have a parent Vagrantfile:

git clone git@github.com:lucee/lucee-dockerfiles.git
cd lucee-dockerfiles
vagrant up dockerhost
vagrant up lucee45
open http://192.168.56.100:8001
