- Updated dockerfile
- Added minimal peppermint.json to the docker folder, for use by the dockerfile.
- Updated getting started with alternate docker-compose instructions & troubleshooting.
No idea why git didn't pick up this file being added to the repo, but here it is manually uploaded anyway... Minimal peppermint.json so the dockerfile can use it. :)
| 1. Build the container (see above) on the machine you want to run the container on. | ||
| - Building it on the machine itself means you don't need to worry about motherboard/kernal type, it will build the correct one for that machine. | ||
| - If you need to install Apache in order to install PHP so you can build it, remember to turn the 'start on boot' setting off. (Also just turn it off straight away, you don't need it to build.) |

You should be able to use phpX.Y-cli and phpX.Y-zip. You shouldn't need to install Apache to build Pepperminty Wiki?

The advice I got from a quick google is the easiest way to install php is to just install Apache? Haven't used PHP for years before I did this, so if there's an actual better way feel free to get rid of that line. (I did manage to confuse myself with it though so idk might be useful, but I THINK I also put it in the troubleshooting so that should be good enough.)

I assume by doing docker run -v /test/example.json:/srv/app/peppermint.json .... you overwrite this file? I don't quite understand how that would work in the scenario of a -v if the file doesn't exist on the host, and the alternate situation in which peppermint.json does exist on the host

Oooh, yeah, if it's an update you definitely wouldn't want it in there. But for a first run it's extremely useful. I'm not familiar enough with the code to know if there'd be an easy way of putting in some kinda if statement there, but if there is that might be the best option?
