NATS和Docker

NATS Server Containerization

The NATS server is provided as a Docker image on Docker Hub that you can run using the Docker daemon. The NATS server Docker image is extremely lightweight, coming in under 10 MB in size.

Synadia actively maintains and supports the NATS server Docker image.

Nightly

The nightly build container can be found here

Usage

To use the Docker container image, install Docker and pull the public image:

docker pull nats

Run the NATS server image:

docker run nats

By default the NATS server exposes multiple ports:

4222 is for clients.
8222 is an HTTP management port for information reporting.
6222 is a routing port for clustering.
Use -p or -P to customize.

To run a server with the ports exposed on a docker network:

First create the 'docker network' nats

docker network create nats

And start the server

docker run --name nats --network nats --rm -p 4222:4222 -p 8222:8222 nats --http_port 8222

Creating a NATS Cluster

First run a server with the ports exposed on the 'nats' docker network:

docker run --name nats --network nats --rm -p 4222:4222 -p 8222:8222 nats --http_port 8222 --cluster_name NATS --cluster nats://0.0.0.0:6222

Next, start another couple of servers and point them to the seed server to make them form a cluster:

docker run --name nats-1 --network nats --rm nats --cluster_name NATS --cluster nats://0.0.0.0:6222 --routes=nats://ruser:T0pS3cr3t@nats:6222
docker run --name nats-2 --network nats --rm nats --cluster_name NATS --cluster nats://0.0.0.0:6222 --routes=nats://ruser:T0pS3cr3t@nats:6222

NOTE Since the Docker image protects routes using credentials we need to provide them above. Extracted from Docker image configuration

To verify the routes are connected, you can make a request to the monitoring endpoint on /routez as follows and confirm that there are now 2 routes:

curl http://127.0.0.1:8222/routez

Creating a NATS Cluster with Docker Compose

It is also straightforward to create a cluster using Docker Compose. Below is a simple example that uses a network named nats to create a full mesh cluster.

version: "3.5"
services:
  nats:
    image: nats
    ports:
      - "8222:8222"
    command: "--cluster_name NATS --cluster nats://0.0.0.0:6222 --http_port 8222 "
    networks: ["nats"]
  nats-1:
    image: nats
    command: "--cluster_name NATS --cluster nats://0.0.0.0:6222 --routes=nats://ruser:T0pS3cr3t@nats:6222"
    networks: ["nats"]
    depends_on: ["nats"]
  nats-2:
    image: nats
    command: "--cluster_name NATS --cluster nats://0.0.0.0:6222 --routes=nats://ruser:T0pS3cr3t@nats:6222"
    networks: ["nats"]
    depends_on: ["nats"]

networks:
  nats:
    name: nats

Now we use Docker Compose to create the cluster that will be using the nats network:

docker-compose -f nats-cluster.yaml up

Testing the Clusters

Now, the following should work: make a subscription on one of the nodes and publish it from another node. You should be able to receive the message without problems.

docker run --network nats --rm -it natsio/nats-box

Inside the container

nats sub -s nats://nats:4222 hello &
nats pub -s "nats://nats-1:4222" hello first
nats pub -s "nats://nats-2:4222" hello second

Also stopping the seed node to which the subscription was done, should trigger an automatic failover to the other nodes:

docker-compose -f nats-cluster.yaml stop nats

Output extract

... 
16e55f1c4f3c:~# 10:47:28 Disconnected due to: EOF, will attempt reconnect
10:47:28 Disconnected due to: EOF, will attempt reconnect
10:47:28 Reconnected [nats://172.18.0.4:4222]

Publishing again will continue to work after the reconnection:

nats pub -s "nats://nats-1:4222" hello again
nats pub -s "nats://nats-2:4222" hello again
