Version: v1.5

Deploy Seata Server By Docker Compose

Precautions

  • Please avoid directly pulling the latest version image. The latest version is not necessarily a stable version. To avoid unnecessary problems, please go to docker image warehouse to determine the image version to be pulled.
  • Starting from Seata Server version 1.5.0, the configuration file has been changed to application.yml. So when using custom configuration, you need to copy the native configuration first.

Use custom configuration file

In order to obtain the configuration file of seata server 1.5.0, we need to first start a service of seata server 1.5.0, then copy the default configuration file from the started container instance, and then modify it.

docker-compose.yaml

version: "3.1"
services:
seata-server:
image: seataio/seata-server:${latest-release-version}
ports:
- "7091:7091"
- "8091:8091"

Next, copy the resource file in the /seata-server/resources location in the container to the specified location of the host through the docker cp command. In the specified location of the host, we can see the corresponding application.yml configuration file, and the relevant configuration only needs to modify this file.

The configuration of application.yml can refer to application.example.yml

Quick Start

No Registration Center, File Storage

In this mode, there is no need for a registration center or any third-party storage center.

docker-compose.yaml

version: "3.1"
services:
seata-server:
image: seataio/seata-server:${latest-release-version}
hostname: seata-server
ports:
- "7091:7091"
- "8091:8091"
environment:
- SEATA_PORT=8091
- STORE_MODE=file

No Registration Center, db Storage

The db mode needs to create the corresponding table structure in the database, please refer to [table creation script].

(1)application.yml

The configuration of application.yml can refer to application.example.yml

For more storage mode support, please refer to More Storage Modes.

High Available Usage Deployment

Seata high availability usage deployment relies on the registration center and database, but does not depend on the configuration center.
Ensure that multiple Seata Servers use the same registry and the same storage center to form a highly available deployment.
The db mode needs to create the corresponding table structure in the database, please refer to [table creation script].

Environment variables

seata-server supports the following environment variables:

  • SEATA_IP

Optional. It specifies the IP started by seata-server. This IP is used when registering with the registration center, such as eureka, etc.

  • SEATA_PORT

Optional. It is used to specify the port where seata-server starts. The default port is 8091.

  • STORE_MODE

Optional. It is used to specify the transaction log storage method of seata-server, supports db, file, redis (supported by Seata-Server 1.3 and above). The default value is file.

  • SERVER_NODE

Optional. It is used to specify the seata-server node ID, such as 1,2,3... The default value is generated based on ip.

  • SEATA_ENV

Optional. It is used to specify the seata-server operating environment, such as dev, test, etc. When the service is started, configurations such as registry-dev.conf will be used.

  • SEATA_CONFIG_NAME

Optional. It is used to specify the configuration file location, such as file:/root/registry, which will load /root/registry.conf as the configuration file. If you need to specify the file.conf file at the same time, you need to change the value of config.file.name in registry.conf to something like file:/root/file.conf.
