Install with Docker Compose
Introduction
In this section, you’ll learn how to get up and running with a stand-alone Anchore Enterprise installation for trial, demonstration and review with Docker Compose.
Requirements
The following instructions assume you are using a system running Docker v1.12 or higher, and a version of Docker Compose that supports at least v2 of the docker-compose configuration format.
- A stand-alone installation will requires at least 4GB of RAM, and enough disk space available to support the largest container images you intend to analyze (we recommend 3x largest container image size). For small images/testing (basic Linux distro images, database images, etc), between 5GB and 10GB of disk space should be sufficient.
- In order to access the Anchore Enterprise, you will also require a valid
license.yamlfile that has been issued to you by Anchore. If you do not have a license yet, visit this page for instructions on how to request one.
Step 1: Setup installation location
Create a directory in which to store your configuration files and license file.
mkdir ~/aevolume
Step 2: Copy configuration files
Download the latest Anchore Enterprise container image, which contains the necessary docker-compose.yaml and configuration files that will be used for the deployment. In order to be able to download the container, you’ll need to login to docker (if you are not logged in already) using the dockerhub account that you provided to Anchore when you requested your license.
# docker login
Login with your Docker ID to push and pull images from Docker Hub. If you don't have a Docker ID, head over to https://hub.docker.com to create one.
Username: <your_dockerhub_account>
Password: <your_dockerhub_password>
# docker pull docker.io/anchore/enterprise:latest
Next, copy the included docker-compose.yaml to the ~/aevolume/ directory.
# docker create --name ae docker.io/anchore/enterprise:latest
# docker cp ae:/docker-compose.yaml ~/aevolume/docker-compose.yaml
# docker rm ae
Finally, copy the license.yaml file that was provided to you into the ~/aevolume/ directory.
# cp /path/to/your/license.yaml ~/aevolume/license.yaml
Once these steps are complete, your ~/aevolume/ workspace should now look like this:
# cd ~/aevolume
# find .
.
./docker-compose.yaml
./license.yaml
Step 3: Download and run the containers
Download the containers listed in the docker-compose.yaml, and run the entire setup using the docker-compose CLI.
NOTE: by default, all services (including a bundled DB instance) will be transient, and data will be lost if you shut down/restart
# cd ~/aevolume
# docker-compose pull
# docker-compose up -d
Step 4: Verify service availability
After a few moments (depending on system speed), your Anchore Engine, Anchore Enterprise, and Anchore UI services should be up and running, ready to use. You can verify the containers are running with docker-compose:
# cd ~/aevolume
# docker-compose ps

You can run a command to get the status of the Anchore Engine services:
# cd ~/aevolume
# docker-compose exec engine-api anchore-cli system status
Service policy_engine (anchore-quickstart, http://engine-policy-engine:8228): up
Service rbac_authorizer (anchore-quickstart, http://enterprise-rbac-authorizer:8228): up
Service rbac_manager (anchore-quickstart, http://enterprise-rbac-manager:8228): up

Service catalog (anchore-quickstart, http://engine-catalog:8228): up

Service apiext (anchore-quickstart, http://engine-api:8228): up

Note: The first time you run Anchore Enterprise, it will take some time (10+ minutes, depending on network speed) for the vulnerability data to get synced into the engine. For the best experience, wait until the core vulnerability data feeds have completed before proceeding. You can check the status of your feed sync using the CLI:
# cd ~/aevolume
# docker-compose exec engine-api anchore-cli system feeds list

As soon as you see RecordCount values > 0 for all vulnerability groups, the system is fully populated and ready to present vulnerability results. Note that feed syncs are incremental, so the next time you start up Anchore Enterprise it will be ready immediately.
Step 5: Begin using Anchore
You can point your browser at the Anchore Enterprise UI by directing it to http://localhost:3000/.
Enter the username admin and password foobar to log in. There, you will be able to navigate your images, inspect image contents, perform security scans, review compliance policy evaluations, edit compliance policies with a complete policy editor UI, manage accounts/users/RBAC assignments, and review system events (and other UI features).
Note: This document is intended to serve as a quickstart guide. Before moving further with Anchore Enterprise, it is highly recommended that you enhance your learning by reading the Overview sections to gain a deeper understanding of fundamentals, concepts, and proper usage.
