How to Run Hop Web and Hop Server Together in a Single Docker Container?

Hi,

I would like to run Hop Web and Hop Server in the same Docker container.
Is there an official method or best-practice steps to build a combined Docker image that includes both components?

It is a best practice in containers to keep containers limited to a single service, but you can use docker compose to combine multiple services/containers in a single deployment.
That said, you don't have to follow those best practices. You can build a container image that combines both services (Hop Web uses Tomcat, Hop Server use Jetty, so will be complex), but that's not something we can help you with.

Thanks, I I thought to doing same that you suggested.
My main goal here is to ensure that the same pipeline definitions are available to both Hop Web and Hop Server.

Our use case:
We want to be able to edit and update pipelines through API calls from Hop Web, and for those same pipelines to be executed by Hop Server. For this reason, having both components share the same runtime filesystem is important.

should be possible with volumes/mounts
