Pull MariaDB through Command

  • To download MariaDB through the command line, we need to log in to SSH and use the below-given command to download the image.
sudo docker pull mariadb

Credit to Linux Server

sudo docker pull linuxserver/mariadb
  • If the first command doesn’t work you can always use the second one.
  • After the image is successfully downloaded, we can go ahead and start configuring the container.

Docker Compose

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  mariadb:
    image: linuxserver/mariadb
    container_name: mariadb
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=ROOT_ACCESS_PASSWORD
      - TZ=Europe/London
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=USER_DB_NAME #optional
      - MYSQL_USER=MYSQL_USER #optional
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=DATABASE_PASSWORD #optional
      - REMOTE_SQL=http://URL1/your.sql,https://URL2/your.sql #optional
    volumes:
      - path_to_data:/config
    ports:
      - 3306:3306
    restart: unless-stopped

MariaDB Container Configuration

  • First of all, we need to navigate and click on the add container.
  • Now, we need to type a name and select the image in the next section.
  • After that, we need to concentrate on 3 things only i.e Volume, Environment, and Restart Policy.

The Default Port for MariaDB is 3306, you can always bind the port with some other port according to our requirement or if the port is already in use.

Adding Custom Configuration

  • You can add your own custom config.inc.php settings by creating a file named “config.user.inc.php” with the various user-defined settings in it, and then linking it into the container using:
docker run --name myadmin -d --link mysql_db_server:db -p 8080:80 -v /local_dir/config.user.inc.php:/etc/phpmyadmin/config.user.inc.php ebspace/armhf-phpmyadmin

  • Secondly, we need to navigate and click on add container.
  • Now, we need to type a name and select the image in the next section.
  • After that, we need to concentrate on 3 things only i.e Volume, Environment, and Restart Policy.

The Default Port for phpMyAdmin is 80, you can always bind the port with some other port according to our requirement or if the port is already in use.

Environment variables

  • PMA_ARBITRARY – when set to 1 connection to the arbitrary server will be allowed
  • PMA_HOST – define address/hostname of the MySQL server
  • PMA_VERBOSE – define the verbose name of the MySQL server
  • PMA_PORT – define port of the MySQL server
  • PMA_HOSTS – define a comma-separated list of address/hostnames of the MySQL servers
  • PMA_VERBOSES – define a comma-separated list of verbose names of the MySQL servers
  • PMA_USER and PMA_PASSWORD – define username to use for the config authentication method
  • PMA_ABSOLUTE_URI – define user-facing URI

In conclusion

  • Now, we can go ahead and access our phpMyAdmin on http://omv_ip_address:8085 because we have bound port 8085 to port 80.

you only install the mariadb docker. there is no further information about a phpmydamin container. so you can not acces to rasperryIP:3306/phpmyadmin

Hello! It is very strange, I did it several times as in the instructions and the same result. When installing phpmyadmin, I specify the port, but as a result, they are not registered in the container.
