Azure Web App use case with docker-compose.yml

[mjbroerman]

Hi thanks for the image and the help!

I'm new to these deployments, but I got the image running locally no problem. When I try to use Azure Web Apps, I point to the docker hub image and use your docker command as the startup command:

docker run -it \
  -e PBF_URL=https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/monaco-latest.osm.pbf \
  -e REPLICATION_URL=https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/monaco-updates/ \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  --name nominatim \
  mediagis/nominatim:4.2

And no luck. I dug into the logs and, I find this hard to believe, but it seem they just concatenate the startup command to their own command, rather than replace it? Obviously not a valid command.

2023-09-19T15:26:15.586Z INFO  - Pull Image successful, Time taken: 0 Minutes and 55 Seconds

-e REPLICATION_URL=https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/monaco-updates/ \ 
-p 8080:8080 \ 
mediagis/nominatim:4.2 

So I tried to use the docker-compose.yml option, modified for the simple case:

version: "3"

services:
    nominatim:
        container_name: nominatim
        image: mediagis/nominatim:4.2
        restart: always
        ports:
            - "8080:8080"
        environment:
            # see https://github.com/mediagis/nominatim-docker/tree/master/4.2#configuration for more options
            PBF_URL: https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/monaco-latest.osm.pbf
            REPLICATION_URL: https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/monaco-updates/

On the second time it worked. If you all have any work arounds or tips for the first case, let me know.

From here I tried a non-trivial use case, with no luck again.

version: "3"

services:
    nominatim:
        container_name: nominatim
        image: mediagis/nominatim:4.2
        restart: always
        ports:
            - "8080:8080"
        environment:
            # see https://github.com/mediagis/nominatim-docker/tree/master/4.2#configuration for more options
            PBF_URL: https://download.geofabrik.de/north-america/us/pennsylvania-latest.osm.pbf
            REPLICATION_URL: https://download.geofabrik.de/north-america/us/pennsylvania-updates
            NOMINATIM_PASSWORD: very_strong_password
            WEBSITES_CONTAINER_START_TIME_LIMIT: 1800
        volumes:
            - nominatim-data:/var/lib/postgresql/14/main
        shm_size: 1gb

volumes:
    nominatim-data:

Each time it launches the container, it terminates here:

I thought this might be a timeout thing, so I added WEBSITES_CONTAINER_START_TIME_LIMIT: 1800 but I am not sure if the env var was set, since it seemed to fail on the same thing. I tried locally composing, and get this far, with a seemingly different issue. So still looking for a non-trivial setup example on Azure.
