intekhabrizvi/beanstalkd repository overview

⁠Beanstalkd - simple, fast work queue

The security hardened production-ready beanstalkd⁠ image based on Google's distroless⁠ base image.

This is a security-hardened beanstalkd⁠ image based on Google's Distroless image. The sole purpose of this image is to create an extremely minimal image (minimal than alpine) to run the beanstalkd service in extreme isolation with significantly reduced attack vectors.

You can read more about the distroless image here⁠

⁠Quickstart (no data preserved)

This will delete the data once the container stops.

docker run -d --rm \
    --name beanstalkd \
    -p 11300:11300 \
    intekhabrizvi/beanstalkd:latest \
    -l 0.0.0.0 -p 11300

⁠Quick test

We can use telnet or nc to quickly check the beanstalkd health and stats.

printf "stats\r\n" | nc localhost 11300
#or
echo -e "stats\r\n" | telnet localhost 11300

# EXAMPLE OUTPUT
# OK 1020

# current-jobs-urgent: 0
# current-jobs-ready: 0
# current-jobs-reserved: 0
# current-jobs-delayed: 0
# current-jobs-buried: 0

⁠Quickstart with data preserved

This command will save all the data inside the Docker volume, hence all the data will remain preserved even after stopping the container.

1. Create the Volume (one time)

docker volume create beanstalkd-data;

1. Start the container with volume attached.

docker run -d --rm \
    --name beanstalkd \
    -p 11300:11300 \
    -v beanstalkd-data:/data \
    intekhabrizvi/beanstalkd:latest \
    -b /data -f 50 -l 0.0.0.0 -p 11300

⁠Docker compose example

services:
  beanstalkd:
    image: intekhabrizvi/beanstalkd:latest
    ports:
      - "11300:11300"
    # You can put your flags here
    command: ["-b", "/data", "-f", "50"]
    volumes:
      - beanstalkd_data:/data
