Installing Docker

These installation instructions relies heavily on both Docker and Docker-compose. Some introductory guides to get you familiar with these technologies are linked below:

The default deployment model uses Docker and Docker Compose to deploy containers for the project's tools, and so, require the following:

Docker >= 1.13.1
Docker Compose >= 1.15.0

Please note that you will have a more stable experience by installing docker-compose and docker from your distributions repos, rather than downloading docker directly from Docker. Direct downloads from Docker do tend to have more features, but those features often come at the price of unresolved bugs.

Note: On Linux, you will need some escalated privileges to run docker. This may include having rights to run $ sudo docker-compose, or your user being a part of the docker group.

Ubuntu Installation
