====== Docker: MariaDB ======

This Guide will briefly show how to setup MariaDB on Docker in rootless- mode as written here [[.:docker|https://obel1x.de/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=content:serverbasics:docker|]]

Note that this will NOT work out of the Box right now, see this bug here: [[https://github.com/phpmyadmin/docker/issues/187#issuecomment-1872177089|https://github.com/phpmyadmin/docker/issues/187#issuecomment-1872177089]] Currently you need to change the file docker-entrypoint.sh manually after downloading the images.

Using Postgres for some time, i switched to mysql and than to mariadb as i like it most, as you can do good performence- measurements with the ability to slowlog.

Remarks to my setup:

  * Tuned mariadb for Nextcloud
  * Using Sockets, not TCP/IP on the host
  * Added some tweaks from the net

===== Create Socket in tmpfs =====

On the Host, the directory /run/mysqld/mysqld.sock will be used instead of tcp/ip. This directory needs to be created as tmpfs by systemd at boot.

Create the File ''/etc/tmpfiles.d/docker-mariadb.conf''  with content
<file>

#Type Path            Mode UID      GID    Age Argument
d     /run/mysqld     0755 docker   docker -   -

</file>

===== Yaml and .env, configuration of mariadb and phpMyAdmin =====

First, create the directory ''/srv/docker-compose/mariadb''  and put the following files and content in it:

File ''.env''

<file>
COMPOSE_HTTP_TIMEOUT=180

MARIADB_TAG=11.2.2

</file>

File ''docker-compose.yml''

===== Backup =====

Backing up MariaDB works like this:

<file>
#!/bin/bash
# This would be Postgres - i don't like postgres, so see beneath for mariadb:
# rm /backup/nextcloud_pgdumpall.zstd
# docker exec -t postgresql-pgsql_db-1 pg_dumpall -c -U postgres  | zstd -19 -o /backup/nextcloud_pgdumpall.zstd --no-progress
# For mariadb use mariadb-dump and root
# For mysql use mysqldump and admin
BACKUPFILE=/backup/nextcloud_mariadbdump.zstd
MARIADB_PASS='verysecretpassword'
echo "Backup of mariadb to ${BACKUPFILE}"
rm ${BACKUPFILE}
docker exec -t mariadb-mariadb-1 mariadb-dump --all-databases --single-transaction --quick --lock-tables=false -u root -p${MARIADB_PASS}  | zstd -19 -o ${BACKUPFILE} --no-progress
echo 'Backup done.'

</file>
===== Optimizing Tables =====

Doing this will remove defragmentation and repair some stuff, so maybe you want to do this once a month or so ''mariadb_optimize.sh'':
<file>

#!/bin/bash

# 28.11.2023: Docker-Version

#
