• cd discourse
• curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitnami/containers/main/bitnami/discourse/docker-compose.yml > docker-compose.yml
• nano docker-compose.yml
  • services: -> discourse: -> environment:
    • - DISCOURSE_HOST=docker01-eitan
  • services: -> sidekiq: -> environment:
    • - DISCOURSE_HOST=docker01-eitan
  • save and exit
• stop any containers already using port 80 with docker compose down in other dir
• return to discourse dir
• docker compose up -d
• takes about 10 minutes on the VM
• I can't create accounts without a working SMTP server, so I can't really do anything other than look at the default posts
