Awesome Docker Compose Examples

Various Docker Compose examples of selfhosted FOSS and proprietary projects.

• Docker Compose

• Volume bind mounts are assumed to be located at /mnt/docker-volumes/<container-name>/. You can adjust the path via the global env variable DOCKER_VOLUME_STORAGE to your liking though. The compose examples will fall back to /mnt/docker-volumes/<container-name>/ if the env variable is not set on your Docker server.
• Volume permissions (UID:GUID) must be set correctly by yourself. Usually 1000:1000 - otherwise read the notes!
• Docker networks are not pre-defined. Adjust to your preference and network/proxy setup.
• Example config files are usually provided but not yet located in the correct volume bind mount paths. Adjust!
• Example credentials should be always adjusted due to security reasons. Read the comments!

Otherwise, it should be a matter of:

git clone https://github.com/Haxxnet/Compose-Examples && cd Compose-Examples
cd <container-of-interest>

# read the notes, comments and adjust compose   volumes   configs
