answer the questions
My docker-compose script successfully runs the mysql/mariadb service and copies the "init.sql" script containing the database schema to "/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d". However, according to the docs](https://hub.docker.com/_/mariadb/), the sql script will never execute like [.
No errors, nothing in the logs. I checked that the sql file is copied to the correct location in the container. I checked that the script runs without errors on an empty database.
What am I missing? If the script is executed (and does nothing for some reason), is it even visible in the logs?

Answers
Looking at the source of the files for the mariadb image docker-entrypoint.sh
, the script should execute your init.sql
, obviously
-
The script will only be executed if the container does not previously contain a database (script line 76), and
-
There will be a log output informing you that your script was called.
To use docker-compose
achieve this, you have to stop the service, delete the container (to get rid of the database) and restart it:
docker-compose stop
docker-compose rm
docker-compose start
Here's an example of image behavior, just using .sh
files instead .sql
:
$ cat hello.sh
echo "This is output of the hello script"
$ docker run -it -v `pwd`/hello.sh:/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/hello.sh -v mariadb_test:/var/lib/mysql -e MYSQL_RANDOM_ROOT_PASSWORD=1 mariadb

You'll see the script's invocation and its stdout buried somewhere in the log output . On subsequent starts of the container, the script will not be executed because the database has already been created (in the local mariadb volume):
