What is OpenCart?

OpenCart is a free and open source e-commerce platform for online merchants. It provides a professional and reliable foundation for a successful online store.

Why use Bitnami Images?

Bitnami closely tracks upstream source changes and promptly publishes new versions of this image using our automated systems.
With Bitnami images the latest bug fixes and features are available as soon as possible.
Bitnami containers, virtual machines and cloud images use the same components and configuration approach - making it easy to switch between formats based on your project needs.
Bitnami images are built on CircleCI and automatically pushed to the Docker Hub.
All our images are based on minideb a minimalist Debian based container image which gives you a small base container image and the familiarity of a leading linux distribution.

Prerequisites

To run this application you need Docker Engine 1.10.0. Docker Compose is recomended with a version 1.6.0 or later.

Run OpenCart with a Database Container

Running OpenCart with a database server is the recommended way. You can either use docker-compose or run the containers manually.

Run the application using Docker Compose

This is the recommended way to run OpenCart. You can use the following docker compose template:

version: '2'
services:
  mariadb:
    image: 'bitnami/mariadb:latest'
    environment:
      - ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
    volumes:
      - 'mariadb_data:/bitnami'
  opencart:
    image: 'bitnami/opencart:latest'
    ports:
      - '80:80'
      - '443:443'
    volumes:
      - 'opencart_data:/bitnami'
    depends_on:
      - mariadb
volumes:
  mariadb_data:
    driver: local
  opencart_data:
    driver: local

Run the application manually

If you want to run the application manually instead of using docker-compose, these are the basic steps you need to run:

Create a new network for the application and the database:

$ docker network create opencart-tier

Start a MariaDB database in the network generated:

$ docker run -d --name mariadb -e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes --net=opencart_network bitnami/mariadb:latest

Note: You need to give the container a name in order to OpenCart to resolve the host

Run the OpenCart container:

$ docker run -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 --name opencart --net opencart-tier bitnami/opencart:latest

Then you can access the OpenCart storefront at http://your-ip/. To access the administration area, logon to http://your-ip/admin

Note: If you want to access your application from a public IP or hostname you need to configure OpenCart for it. You can handle it adjusting the configuration of the instance by setting the environment variable OPENCART_HOST to your public IP or hostname.

Persisting your application

If you remove the container all your data and configurations will be lost, and the next time you run the image the database will be reinitialized. To avoid this loss of data, you should mount a volume that will persist even after the container is removed.

For persistence you should mount a volume at the /bitnami path. Additionally you should mount a volume for persistence of the MariaDB data.

The above examples define docker volumes namely mariadb_data and opencart_data. The OpenCart application state will persist as long as these volumes are not removed.

To avoid inadvertent removal of these volumes you can mount host directories as data volumes. Alternatively you can make use of volume plugins to host the volume data.

Mount persistent folders in the host using docker-compose

This requires a minor change to the docker-compose.yml template previously shown:

version: '2'

services:
  mariadb:
    image: 'bitnami/mariadb:latest'
    environment:
      - ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes
    volumes:
      - '/path/to/mariadb-persitence:/bitnami'
  opencart:
    image: 'bitnami/opencart:latest'
    depends_on:
      - mariadb
    ports:
      - '80:80'
      - '443:443'
    volumes:
      - '/path/to/opencart-persistence:/bitnami'

Mount host directories as data volumes using the Docker command line

In this case you need to specify the directories to mount on the run command. The process is the same than the one previously shown:

Create a network (if it does not exist):

$ docker network create opencart-tier

Create a MariaDB container with host volume:

$ docker run -d --name mariadb -e ALLOW_EMPTY_PASSWORD=yes \
  --net opencart-tier \
  --volume /path/to/mariadb-persistence:/bitnami \
  bitnami/mariadb:latest

Note: You need to give the container a name in order to OpenCart to resolve the host

Create the OpenCart container with host volumes:

$ docker run -d --name opencart -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
  --net opencart-tier \
  --volume /path/to/opencart-persistence:/bitnami \
  bitnami/opencart:latest

Upgrade this application

Bitnami provides up-to-date versions of MariaDB and OpenCart, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container. We will cover here the upgrade of the OpenCart container. For the MariaDB upgrade see https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-mariadb/blob/master/README.md#upgrade-this-image

Get the updated images:

$ docker pull bitnami/opencart:latest

Stop your container

For docker-compose: $ docker-compose stop opencart
For manual execution: $ docker stop opencart

Take a snapshot of the application state

$ rsync -a /path/to/opencart-persistence /path/to/opencart-persistence.bkp.$(date +%Y%m%d-%H.%M.%S)

Additionally, snapshot the MariaDB data

You can use these snapshots to restore the application state should the upgrade fail.

Remove the currently running container

For docker-compose: $ docker-compose rm -v opencart
For manual execution: $ docker rm -v opencart

Run the new image

For docker-compose: $ docker-compose start opencart
For manual execution (mount the directories if needed): docker run --name opencart bitnami/opencart:latest

Configuration

Environment variables

When you start the opencart image, you can adjust the configuration of the instance by passing one or more environment variables either on the docker-compose file or on the docker run command line. If you want to add a new environment variable:

For docker-compose add the variable name and value under the application section:

opencart:
  image: bitnami/opencart:latest
  ports:
    - 80:80
    - 443:443
  environment:
    - OPENCART_HOST=your_host
  volumes:
      - opencart_data:/bitnami

For manual execution add a -e option with each variable and value:

$ docker run -d --name opencart -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
  -e OPENCART_PASSWORD=my_password \
  --net opencart-tier \
  --volume /path/to/opencart-persistence:/bitnami \
  bitnami/opencart:latest

Available variables:

OPENCART_USERNAME: OpenCart application User's First Name. Default: user
OPENCART_PASSWORD: OpenCart application password. Default: bitnami1
OPENCART_EMAIL: OpenCart application email. Default: [email protected]
OPENCART_HOST: OpenCart Host Server.
MARIADB_PASSWORD: Root password for the MariaDB.
MARIADB_HOST: Hostname for MariaDB server. Default: mariadb
MARIADB_PORT_NUMBER: Port used by MariaDB server. Default: 3306

SMTP Configuration

To configure OpenCart to send email using SMTP you can set the following environment variables:

SMTP_HOST: SMTP host.
SMTP_PORT: SMTP port.
SMTP_USER: SMTP account user.
SMTP_PASSWORD: SMTP account password.
SMTP_PROTOCOL: SMTP protocol.

This would be an example of SMTP configuration using a GMail account:

docker-compose:

  opencart:
    image: bitnami/opencart:latest
    ports:
      - 80:80
      - 443:443
    environment:
      - SMTP_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
      - SMTP_PORT=587
      - [email protected]
      - SMTP_PASSWORD=your_password
    volumes:
      - opencart_data:/bitnami

For manual execution:

$ docker run -d --name opencart -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
  -e SMTP_HOST=smtp.gmail.com \
  -e SMTP_PORT=587 \
  -e [email protected] \
  -e SMTP_PASSWORD=your_password \
  --net opencart-tier \
  --volume /path/to/opencart-persistence:/bitnami \
  bitnami/opencart:latest
