Dawn is a set of tools and configuration to help you bootstrap and maintain a Docker-based PaaS. On top of configuring Docker Swarm, Dawn also configures and maintain the systems required for traffic routing, service discovery, logging, monitoring and storage.
Note: Windows users will need to make sure that their work drive (normally C:) is shared in Docker. See https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/stevelasker/2016/06/14/configuring-docker-for-windows-volumes/ for more details.
Software | Version |
---|---|
Docker | 1.13.0+ |
The client consists of two components:
- A small binary to run on your local machine
- A local Docker container, containing playbooks and tools (Ansible, Terraform, Docker binaries, etc.)
Because tools and basic playbooks are bundled together into a single Docker image, it makes it easier to manage multiple deployments (by using a specific version of the local container). It also makes it easier to create custom Docker images (additional tools, playbook customisations, etc).
# Must run as administrator
Invoke-RestMethod https://dawn.sh/install-win | powershell -command -
# Or, to install a specific version
Invoke-WebRequest -uri https://dawn.sh/install-win -OutFile install.ps1
.\install.ps1 -version v0.0.1
# Will request sudo password after download
curl -fsSL https://dawn.sh/install | sh
# Or, to install a specific version
curl -fsSL https://dawn.sh/install | version=v0.0.1 sh

System | Software |
---|---|
Container execution | Docker Swarm |
Traffic routing | Traefik |
Service discovery | Consul |
Logging | Kibana |
Metrics | Grafana |
Storage | Ceph |
We also install additional subsystems which will sit behind each components above; for instance, logs are collected using rsyslog and are sent to Logstash to be stored in ElasticSearch, while metrics are collected with Telegraf before being sent to Prometheus.
For a more detailed view of what software Dawn will install for you, please see the ansible folder.
