A docker container for elasticmq which is a nice message queue server with an SQS interface which makes it fantastic for SQS app developers.

It's on docker-hub and github

• latest, 0.14.6 (Dockerfile)

Running can be as simple as

docker run -P fingershock/elasticmq

however, to be generally useful, additional arguments or configuration files will need to be provided.

To provide an elasticmq configuration file, bind mount it and tell elasticmq where it is using the ELASTICMQ_OPTS environment variable.

docker run -P -e ELASTICMQ_OPTS="-Dconfig.file=my.conf" -v /docker/host/emq/my.conf:/elasticmq/my.conf:ro  fingershock/elasticmq

Passing simple options without a full-blown config file can also be done using ELASTICMQ_OPTS

docker run -p 9999:9324 -e ELASTICMQ_OPTS="-Dnode-address.host=10.2.3.4 -Dnode-address.port=9999" fingershock/elasticmq
