Docker installation + MySQL connection working

Hi all,

I had a lot of difficulty installing Akaunting locally using docker. First permission errors (about the bootstrap/cache and storage/logs, context here) and after that one I couldn't connect to my databse. What I had to do were the following steps.

 

git clone https://github.com/akaunting/akaunting.git

cd akaunting

docker-compose down -v && docker build -t akaunting . && docker-compose up -d

docker-compose exec web composer install

sudo chmod -R 777 storage/

sudo chmod -R 777 bootstrap/cache/

cp .env.example .env

sudo chmod 777 .env

docker-compose exec web php artisan key:generate

 

Go to: http://127.0.0.1:8080/install/requirements

 

host = docker inspect akaunting_web_1 | grep Gateway

db = akaunting_db

db_username = root

db_password = akaunting_root_password

 

After doing this you are able to continue the installation. Doing all these things feels kind of hacky. Is this the right way to go or is there certainly something wrong with my set up.
