Requirements

  • 4GB of RAM

    $ cd bbb-docker

    $ git checkout main 
    
  4. Run setup:
    $ ./scripts/setup
    
  5. (optional) Make additional configuration adjustments
    $ nano .env
    # always recreate the docker-compose.yml file after making any changes
    $ ./scripts/generate-compose
    
  6. Start containers:
    $ docker compose up -d --no-build
    
  7. If you use greenlight, you can create an admin account with:
    $ docker compose exec greenlight bundle exec rake admin:create
