Couchdb

Create a Pipeline with a CouchDB dependency.

CouchDB

This guide covers configuring continuous integration pipelines for projects that have a CouchDB dependency.

Basic Example

In the below example we demonstrate a pipeline that launches CouchDB as a background step. The database server will be available at database:5984, where the hostname matches the background step name.

kind: pipeline
spec:
  stages:
  - type: ci
    spec:
      steps:
      - name: database
        type: background
        spec:
          container: couchdb:3.3.2
          envs:
            COUCHDB_USER: admin
            COUCHDB_PASSWORD: password

      - name: test
        type: run
        spec:
          container: couchdb:3.3.2
          script: |-
            sleep 15
            curl http://database:5984

Common Problems

Initialization

If you are unable to connect to the CouchDB container please make sure you are giving the instance adequate time to initialize and begin accepting connections.

      - name: test
        type: script
        spec:
          image: couchdb:3.3.2
          run: |-
            sleep 15
            curl http://database:5984

Incorrect Hostname

You cannot use 127.0.0.1 or localhost to connect with the database. If you are unable to connect to the database please verify you are using the correct hostname, corresponding with the name of the container.

Bad:

      - name: test
        type: script
        spec:
          image: couchdb:3.3.2
          run: |-
            sleep 15
            curl http://localhost:5984

Good:

      - name: test
        type: script
        spec:
          image: couchdb:3.3.2
          run: |-
            sleep 15
            curl http://database:5984
