PowerDNS Docker Image with PostgreSQL Backend

Minimalistic Alpine-based PowerDNS image with PostgreSQL backend

Features

Based on Alpine 3.7 with APK pdns package version 4.1.0-r0
PostgreSQL backend only
Guardian process enabled with graceful shutdown
Convenient configuration via mounting /etc/pdns/conf.d dir, /etc/pdns/pdns.conf file or via command-line arguments
Default configuration is adopted to docker environment:
- API port is changed from 8081 to 80 and exposed
- Connections to the API webserver are allowed from local docker networks (but webserver itself is not enabled by default)
Neither PostgreSQL server itself nor DB initialization are not included, this image is aimed to just run pdns server inside more complex setup using docker-compose or something else

Basic:

docker run --name pdns \
  --link postgres \
  -p 53:53 -p 53:53/udp \
  procraft/pdns-postgres

With docker-compose and companion db server container (see example docker-compose.yml):

docker-compose up -d
