Docker-compose failed running a jar that read configuration from a file

I want to run a jar on a docker container, it was working fine, but if I use a jar that need to read from a config file it fail.

The next is my docker-compose.yml:

jar:
  image: frolvlad/alpine-oraclejdk8:slim
  ports:
    - "3000:3000"
  volumes:
    - /tmp
    - "./farr-api-0.1.0.jar:/fagor/app.jar"
    - "./config/application.yml:/fagor/config/application.yml"
  command: sh -c 'touch /fagor/app.jar'
  environment:
    - JAVA_OPTS=""
  entrypoint: [ "sh", "-c", "java $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom -jar /fagor/app.jar" ]

Exceptions:

Here is a simple dockerfile that copies your app to an image, mounts a volume and copies the config to the volume.

FROM frolvlad/alpine-oraclejdk8:slim

MAINTAINER Asier

VOLUME /config

COPY your_app.jar app.jar
COPY your_config.yml config/application.yml

RUN touch /app.jar

ENTRYPOINT exec java $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom -jar /app.jar

compose file can be simple like

version: '2'
    services:
      farrapi_container:
        container_name: farrapicontainer
        build:
          context: ./
          dockerfile: Dockerfile
        ports:
         - "3000:3000"

By that you should be able to change config via host. Be sure that app references the config file properly. Anyways I would still try to have the configuration done via environment settings. It's pretty straight forward to override settings in you application.properties with ENV settings in spring boot.

This's not an answer, just want to show how to test the jar with docker run. Now we are:

docker run -it -p 3000:3000 \
    -v ./farr-api-0.1.0.jar:/fagor/app.jar \
    -v ./config/application.yml:/fagor/config/application.yml \
    frolvlad/alpine-oraclejdk8:slim \
    /bin/bash

# Now when you're inside the container

# Make sure you can run Java
java -version
# Make sure you had your files
ls -la  /fagor/app.jar
ls -ls /fagor/config/application.yml
# Run it
export JAVA_OPTS=""
java $JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/./urandom -jar /fagor/app.jar
