Virtualizor inside Docker

Virtualizor is a powerful web based VPS Control Panel which a user can deploy and manage VPS on servers with a single click. This will install the master server from which you can control your slave servers. The virtualizor.sh script provided in the repo can facilitate most if not all actions needed to manage your panel. Alternatively you can use our example docker-compose templates if you are more comfortable with compose.

Installation

This assumes that you already have docker installed.

1. Fetch the repo

   git clone https://github.com/Ivstiv/virtualizor-docker.git && cd virtualizor-docker

2. Create & Edit your config

   cp example-config.sh config.sh

3. Build the image

   sh virtualizor.sh build

4. Install the panel

   sh virtualizor.sh install

   If you have done everything correctly you should see output similar to this:

   Congratulations, Virtualizor has been successfully installed
   
   API KEY : key
   API Password : password
   
   You can login to the Virtualizor Admin Panel
   using your ROOT details at the following URL :
   https://IP:4085/
   OR
   http://IP:4084/
   

   If you see this you can login to your admin panel, if not check your variables or firewall. Use CTRL+C to exit the installation. (This would also stop the container)

5. Start the panel running in the background

   sh virtualizor.sh start

Script manual

virtualizor.sh — A tool to easily control your virtualizor instance.

Examples:
  sh virtualizor.sh start
  sh virtualizor.sh reinstall

Options:
  start     Starts the container
  stop      Stops the container
  install   Creates a container and runs the installation script
  reinstall Deletes all panel data and installs a fresh panel
  uninstall Completely removes all traces of virtualizor
  build     Rebuilds the image
  shell     Starts a shell inside the panel's container
  help      Shows this message

Docker-Compose

Build locally:

If you would like to use this docker image with docker-compose, there is an example docker-compose.yml in this repository. Simply clone the repository to the folder you would like to store your data and run the command docker-compose up -d.

Use prebuilt image:

We provide hosted prebuilt images on Docker Hub, see those images above. You can use the altered example dockerhub_docker-compose.yml here.

Keep it updated

In order to keep the container packages up to date you would unfortunately have to suppress the unsigned repositories of OpenVZ and virtualizor: Ref

docker exec -it virtualizor apt-get --allow-unauthenticated update
docker exec -it virtualizor apt-get upgrade -y

Pushing an image

VERSION=$(date +'%Y-%m-%d')-1
docker login
docker build -t ivstiv/virtualizor-docker:latest -t "ivstiv/virtualizor-docker:$VERSION" . --load
docker push ivstiv/virtualizor-docker:latest
docker push "ivstiv/virtualizor-docker:$VERSION"
docker logout
