Babelfish on Docker

Docker templates and Dockerfiles for Babelfish.

For building the images, see BUILD.md.

Building the image

./build.sh -o ubuntu -v focal -T BABEL_2_1_1__PG_14_3

See releases.json for referring to the available Dockerfiles, or check <version>/distro/osversion/.

Docker run

docker run -d -i -t  \
        -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password -e POSTGRES_DB=postgres \
        -e POSTGRES_USER=postgres -e BABELFISH_USER=bbf \
        -e BABELFISH_PASS=password -e BABELFISH_DB=bbf \
        -e BABELFISH_MIGRATION_MODE=multi-db \
        -e POSTGRES_HOST_AUTH_METHOD=trust \
        -p 1433:1433 -p 5432:15432 \
        --name babelfishpg-2.1.1-ubuntu.focal \
        babelfishpg:2.1.1-ubuntu.focal

Docker Compose

For using the available docker-compose files, go to the corresponding flavor folder (<version>/distro/osversion/) and execute:

docker-compose up

A basic structure with the build included would be:

eg:

version: "3"

services:
  babelfishpg-2.1.1-amazonlinux-2:
    container_name: babelfishpg-2.1.1-amazonlinux.2
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
      args:
        buildno: 1
        MAX_JOBS: 4
    image: babelfishpg:2.1.1-amazonlinux.2
    ports:
      # Port forwarding not supported by BabelfishPG
      - 1433:1433
      - 5432:15432
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password
      - POSTGRES_DB=postgres
      - POSTGRES_USER=postgres
      - BABELFISH_USER=bbf
      - BABELFISH_PASS=password
      - BABELFISH_DB=bbf
      - BABELFISH_MIGRATION_MODE=multi-db
      - POSTGRES_HOST_AUTH_METHOD=trust
    networks:
      - babelfish

...

networks:
  babelfish:

Access

Access through local:

docker-compose exec babelfishpg-ubuntu-focal bash -c 'sqlcmd -H localhost:1433 -P password -U bbf'

To access through host mode in the same machine, it can be issued a similar command to the below (you may need to change the network name entry):

DOCKER_BBF_IP=$(docker inspect -f "{{with index .NetworkSettings.Networks \"babelfish-on-docker_babelfish\"}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}" babelfishpg-ubuntu-focal)

Then, you can either use your psql or your MSSQL Server client of preference (FreeTDS in the following example):

/opt/babelfish/bin/psql -h ${DOCKER_BBF_IP} -p 5432 -U bbf bbf 
tsql -S ${DOCKER_BBF_IP} -p 1433 -U bbf bbf

BABELFISH_DB is the Postgres database that has the Babelfish extensions, and it is called master in SQL Server. So, certain clients like DBeaver will need to specify the master instead of the Postgres name.

Multi-DB / Single-DB

The current image uses multi-db as the default migration mode. It means that all the databases you create in the Babelfish database (through TDS), will be reflected as Postgres schemas in the selected Babelfish database.

The mapped schemas will had the *-dbo suffix. This mode is useful if you rely on multi schema login against your SQL Server.

Single-DB will allow only one user database, and it might be the most recommended mode for beginners.

Extending the image

The current entrypoint is compatible with the Official Docker Images.
