Tips

Service of the system startup

To add the service to the system startup (Ubuntu 16.04), you should execute the next commands:

$ cp /home/docker-kit/docker/docker-kit.service /etc/systemd/system/
$ sudo systemctl enable docker-kit
$ sudo systemctl start docker-kit

Docker updating

To update Docker Engine and Docker Compose you should delete both, and then install again specifying the desired version. Also change DOCKER_API_VERSION and COMPOSE_API_VERSION in the .env file according new API version of Docker Engine ($ docker version) and Docker Compose (docker compose version) respectively.

"Permission denied" error

Use correct permissions for application directories. For PHP projects set permissions via execute the sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /home/docker-kit/php/ command. Or run the docker-compose exec command with the --user option.
