Docker Compose Setup for Helpy.io

This repository contains the neccessary files to run your own helpy.io instance. Thanks to Caddy and let's encrypt, everything is https encrypted (if you have a domain)

How to run?

• modify .env and Caddyfile
• optionally, create a modified seeds.rb and mount it into the helpy container
• point your domain to the ip of your server
• wait for dns change propagation
• run docker-compose up -d

What do you need to know

• If you set DO_NOT_PREPARE=true in the .env file, asset precompilation and database migrations will be skipped. It is advised to leave this alone to ensure running database migrations on version change

What does not work? (aka Todo)

• Email is untested
• Caddy static gzip
• Mailin Container
