Prerequisites

The new Docker image overwrite will be added to a file called docker-compose.override.yml. So before going any further, read the following section that shows you how to create this file for the Devilbox as well as what pitfalls to watch out for.

Overwrite Docker image for the bind service

The following example is using the bind service and overrides the Docker image to illustrate how this is done :

First you simply copy the while definition of the bind service from docker-compose.yml to docker-compose.override.yml:

version: '2.1'
services:
  bind:
    image: cytopia/bind:0.11
    restart: always
    ports:
      # [local-machine:]local-port:docker-port
      - "${LOCAL_LISTEN_ADDR}${HOST_PORT_BIND:-1053}:53"
      - "${LOCAL_LISTEN_ADDR}${HOST_PORT_BIND:-1053}:53/udp"

    environment:
      ##
      ## Debug?
      ##
      - DEBUG_ENTRYPOINT=${DEBUG_COMPOSE_ENTRYPOINT}
      - DOCKER_LOGS=1

      ##
      ## Bind settings
      ##
      - WILDCARD_ADDRESS=172.16.238.11
      - DNS_FORWARDER=${BIND_DNS_RESOLVER:-8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4}

    dns:
      - 127.0.0.1

    networks:
      app_net:
        ipv4_address: 172.16.238.100

The second step is to remove everything that you do not need to overwrite:

version: '2.1'
services:
  bind:
    image: cytopia/bind:0.11

The last step is to actually adjust the value you want to change for the bind service:

version: '2.1'
services:
  bind:
    image: someother/bind:latest
