Docker: 6. Change the configuration

This documentation is part of the Automate with the CLI guide. You can view the complete guide here: Start Docker, retrieve its credentials, and modify its configuration programmatically using the Stackhero CLI.

Welcome to the Stackhero documentation

Stackhero offers a ready-to-use Docker cloud CaaS (Containers as a Service) platform, designed for fast and reliable container deployments:

• Deploy to production with a single docker-compose up command. No additional configuration is required: simply start your containers.
• Choose your own domain name, automatically secured with HTTPS (for example: https://api.your-company.com, https://www.your-company.com, or https://backoffice.your-company.com).
• Benefit from high performance and enhanced security on private, dedicated infrastructure.
• Apply updates with a single click for straightforward, effortless maintenance.

Your containers can be live in production in around five minutes. Stackhero manages the infrastructure, updates, and security for you, so you can focus on developing your applications. Find out more about Docker CaaS cloud hosting.

You can review an example configuration schema and then apply your own settings. When you update the configuration, the service may restart to apply the changes.

# View the configuration schema and an example for your service
stackhero service-configuration-example --service=svc-xxxxxx

# Apply a custom configuration (the service restarts if necessary)
stackhero service-configuration-set \
  --service=svc-xxxxxx \
  --configuration='{ "...": "..." }'

# Wait for the new configuration to be applied
stackhero service-wait-for --service=svc-xxxxxx

That is it. You have now seen the full lifecycle: start a service, retrieve its credentials, and reconfigure it, all in a scriptable, automated manner. To explore further, refer to the full CLI documentation, which also covers the non-interactive STACKHERO_TOKEN authentication demonstrated here.
