|

|
||||
By default the gateway runs a WebSocket echo service similar to [websocket.org](https://www.websocket.org/echo.html).
|
||||
|
||||
You must give your gateway container a hostname. To do this, use the `docker run -h somehostname` option, along with the -e option to define an environment variable, GATEWAY_OPTS, to pass this hostname to the gateway configuration (your hostname may vary):
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker run --name some-kaazing-gateway -h somehostname -d -p 8000:8000 kaazing-gateway
|
||||
$ docker run --name some-kaazing-gateway -h somehostname -e GATEWAY_OPTS="-Dgateway.hostname=somehostname -Xmx512m -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/urandom"-d -p 8000:8000 kaazing-gateway
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note: the additional GATEWAY_OPTS options, `-Xmx512m -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/urandom`, are added in order to preserve these values from the original Dockerfile for the gateway. The `-Xmx512m` value specifies a minimum Java heap size of 512 MB, and `-Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/urandom` is to facilitate faster startup on VMs. See the `Dockerfile` link referenced above for details.
|
||||
|
||||
You should then be able to connect to ws://somehostname:8000 from the [WebSocket echo test](https://www.websocket.org/echo.html).
|
||||
|
||||
Note: this assumes that `somehostname` is resolvable from your browser, you may need to add an etc/hosts entry for `somehostname` on your `dockerhost ip`.

## Custom Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
To launch a container with a specific configuration you can do the following:
|
||||
|
||||
```console
|
||||
$ docker run --name some-kaazing-gateway -v /some/gateway-config.xml:/kaazing-gateway/conf/gateway-config.xml:ro -d kaazing-gateway
|
||||
$ docker run --name some-kaazing-gateway -h somehostname -e GATEWAY_OPTS="-Dgateway.hostname=somehostname -Xmx512m -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/urandom" -v /some/gateway-config.xml:/kaazing-gateway/conf/gateway-config.xml:ro -d kaazing-gateway
|
||||
```
