Adminer

What is Adminer?

Adminer (formerly phpMinAdmin) is a full-featured database management tool written in PHP. Conversely to phpMyAdmin, it consist of a single file ready to deploy to the target server. Adminer is available for MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, MS SQL, Oracle, Firebird, SimpleDB, Elasticsearch and MongoDB.

adminer.org

How to use this image

Standalone

$ docker run --link some_database:db -p 8080:8080 adminer

Then you can hit http://localhost:8080 or http://host-ip:8080 in your browser.

FastCGI

If you are already running a FastCGI capable web server you might prefer running Adminer via FastCGI:

$ docker run --link some_database:db -p 9000:9000 adminer:fastcgi

Then point your web server to port 9000 of the container.

Note: This exposes the FastCGI socket to the Internet. Make sure to add proper firewall rules or use a private Docker network instead to prevent a direct access.

... via docker stack deploy or docker-compose

Example stack.yml for adminer:

# Use root/example as user/password credentials

version: '3.1'

services:

  adminer:
    image: adminer
    restart: always
    ports:
      - 8080:8080

  db:
    image: mysql:5.6
    restart: always
    environment:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: example

Run docker stack deploy -c stack.yml adminer (or docker-compose -f stack.yml up), wait for it to initialize completely, and visit http://swarm-ip:8080, http://localhost:8080, or http://host-ip:8080 (as appropriate).

Loading plugins

This image bundles all official Adminer plugins. You can find the list of plugins on GitHub: https://github.com/vrana/adminer/tree/master/plugins.

To load plugins you can pass a list of filenames in ADMINER_PLUGINS:

$ docker run --link some_database:db -p 8080:8080 -e ADMINER_PLUGINS='tables-filter tinymce' adminer

If a plugin requires parameters to work correctly you will need to add a custom file to the container:

$ docker run --link some_database:db -p 8080:8080 -e ADMINER_PLUGINS='login-servers' adminer
Unable to load plugin file "login-servers", because it has required parameters: servers
Create a file "/var/www/html/plugins-enabled/login-servers.php" with the following contents to load the plugin:

<?php
require_once('plugins/login-servers.php');

/** Set supported servers
    * @param array array($domain) or array($domain => $description) or array($category => array())
    * @param string
    */
return new AdminerLoginServers(
    $servers = ???,
    $driver = 'server'
);

To load a custom plugin you can add PHP scripts that return the instance of the plugin object to /var/www/html/plugins-enabled/.

Choosing a design

The image bundles all the designs that are available in the source package of adminer. You can find the list of designs on GitHub: https://github.com/vrana/adminer/tree/master/designs.

To use a bundled design you can pass its name in ADMINER_DESIGN:

$ docker run --link some_database:db -p 8080:8080 -e ADMINER_DESIGN='nette' adminer

To use a custom design you can add a file called /var/www/html/adminer.css.

Usage with external server

You can specify the default host with the ADMINER_DEFAULT_SERVER environment variable. This is useful if you are connecting to an external server or a docker container named something other than the default db.

docker run -p 8080:8080 -e ADMINER_DEFAULT_SERVER=mysql adminer

Supported Drivers

While Adminer supports a wide range of database drivers this image only supports the following out of the box:

• MySQL
• PostgreSQL
• SQLite
• SimpleDB
• Elasticsearch

To add support for the other drivers you will need to install the following PHP extensions on top of this image:

• pdo_dblib (MS SQL)
• oci8 (Oracle)
• interbase (Firebird)
• mongodb (MongoDB)
