How to setup Artifactory using Docker compose?

Artifactory is open source, binary repository manager. Artifactory is the single solution for managing all the artifacts, binaries, files and containers throughout your software supply chain. 

Some of the key features of Artifactory:

• Supports 27 different package types including helm charts, docker images regardless of tech stack.
• A single source of truth for all your binaries
• Integration with all CICD tools
• role based authorization with teams to manage artifacts 
• you can create local, remote and virtual repositories

What is Docker Compose?

Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. With Compose, you use a YAML file to configure your application’s services. Then, with a single command, you create and start all the services from your configuration. Since Docker Compose lets you configure related containers in a single YAML file, you get the same Infrastructure-as-Code abilities as Kubernetes. But they come in a simpler system that’s more suited to smaller applications that don’t need Kubernetes’ resiliency and scaling.

 

The purpose of docker-compose is to function as docker cli but to issue multiple commands much more quickly. To make use of docker-compose, you need to encode the commands you were running before into a docker-compose.yml file

 

Run docker-compose up and Compose starts and runs your entire app.
