Gracefully shutdown services in Docker container
Created by: kfei
The problem is docker stop
only sends SIGTERM to the PID 1 inside the container, and the PID 1 (/bin/sh -c ...
) does not take care of signals. Hence the services (e.g., postgresql, redis, sidekiq, etc) never have chances to graceful shutdown. Docker just kills the container after its 10 seconds timeout by default.
What this commit does:
- Add a wrapper as the entrypoint of Docker container. Which starts
services through
runit
, reconfigure Gitlab bygitlab-ctl
and gracefully shutdown all services when a SIGTERM is received. - Create an
assets
directory for assets. - Add
.dockerignore
file.
Now you'll see the following log messages after docker stop
:
SIGTERM signal received, try to gracefully shutdown all services...

ok: down: nginx: 0s, normally up
ok: down: postgresql: 1s, normally up
ok: down: redis: 0s, normally up
ok: down: sidekiq: 0s, normally up
