Adding Flyway to a MySQL Docker Container - mysql

Question

I'm building an derivative to this Docker container for mysql (using it as a starting point): https://github.com/docker-library/mysql
I've amended the Dockerfile to add in Flyway. Everything is set up to edit the config file to connect to the local DB instance, etc. The intent is to call this command from inside the https://github.com/docker-library/mysql/blob/master/5.7/docker-entrypoint.sh file (which runs as the ENTRYPOINT) around line 186:
flyway migrate
I get a connection refused when this is run from inside the shell script:
Flyway 4.1.2 by Boxfuse
ERROR:
Unable to obtain Jdbc connection from DataSource
(jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db-name) for user 'root': Could not connect to address=(host=localhost)(port=3306)(type=master) : Connection refused
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SQL State : 08
Error Code : -1
Message : Could not connect to address=(host=localhost)(port=3306)(type=master) : Connection refused
But, if I remove the command from the shell script, rebuild and log in to the container, and run the same command manually, it works with no problems.
I suspect that there may be some differences with how the script connects to the DB to do its thing (it has a built in SQL "runner"), but I can't seem to hunt it down. The container restarts the server during the process, which is what may be the difference here.
Since this container is intended for development, one alternative (a work-around, really) is to use the built in SQL "runner" for this container, using the filename format that Flyway expects, then use Flyway to manage the production DB's versions.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Answer 1

I mean it's the good way to start from the ready image (for start).
You may start from image docker "mysql"
FROM mysql
If you start the finished image - when creating new version your docker then
will only update the difference.
Next, step you may install java and net-tools
RUN apt-get -y install apt-utils openjdk-8-jdk net-tools
Config mysql
ENV MYSQL_DATABASE=mydb
ENV MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root
Add flyway
ADD flyway /opt/flyway
Add migrations
ADD sql /opt/flyway/sql
Add config flyway
ADD config /opt/flyway/conf
Add script to start
ADD start /root/start.sh
Check start mysql
RUN netstat -ntlp
Check java version
RUN java -version
Example file: /opt/flyway/conf/flyway.conf
flyway.driver=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
flyway.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb
flyway.user=root
flyway.password=root
Example file: start.sh
#!/bin/bash
cd /opt/flyway
flyway migrate
# may change to start.sh to start product migration or development.
Flyway documentation
I mean that you in next step may use flyway as service:
For example:
docker run -it -p 3307:3306 my_docker_flyway /root/start << migration_prod.sh
docker run -it -p 3308:3306 my_docker_flayway /root/start << migration_dev.sh
etc ...
