如何在Dockerfile中运行多个JAR？

Question

I have a simple Java code with three main classes. I want to build 3 different JARs out of it and then add those JARs to my Dockerfile and call each JAR in a different Docker image. How can I do it?

Answer 1

The Docker run command accepts an optional COMMAND argument. You can simply add 3 JARs to the Docker image and specify which to run via Docker command.

On the other hand, if you're willing to create multiple images of a single Dockerfile, docker currently supports multi-stage builds (that actually create multiple images) but does not allow you to tag every one of them.

Answer 2

Adding bash script to execute multiple commands and blocks:

#start.sh
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/java -jar MyFirst.jar &
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/bin/java -jar MySecond.jar
... etc

Change your Dockerfile:

# base image is java:8 (ubuntu)
FROM java:8

    # add files to image 
    ADD first.jar .
    ADD second.jar .
    ...
    ADD start.sh .

    # start on run
    CMD ["bash", "start.sh"]
