Docs: Include docker-compose snippet
Directing users to use the container repo to install
HedgeDoc has caused upgrade-trouble in the past, after we made
incompatible changes to the docker-compose.yml in the repo.

This commit inserts a minimal docker-compose snipped in the
docs, which can be used to get started. Upgrading can then
be performed by just incrementing the referenced image version.

# HedgeDoc Docker Image
!!! info "Requirements on your server"
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/)
- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) 17.03.1 or higher
- [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)
The official docker images are [available on quay.io](https://quay.io/repository/hedgedoc/hedgedoc).
We currently only support the `amd64` architecture.
The easiest way to get started with HedgeDoc and Docker is to use the following `docker-compose.yml`:
!!! warning
This is a minimal example to get started quickly and not intended for production use.
```yaml
version: '3'
services:
database:
image: postgres:9.6-alpine
environment:
- POSTGRES_USER=hedgedoc
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password
- POSTGRES_DB=hedgedoc
volumes:
- database:/var/lib/postgresql/data
restart: always
app:
# Make sure to use the latest release from https://hedgedoc.org/latest-release
image: quay.io/hedgedoc/hedgedoc:1.7.2
environment:
- CMD_DB_URL=postgres://hedgedoc:password@database:5432/hedgedoc
- CMD_DOMAIN=localhost
- CMD_URL_ADDPORT=true
volumes:
- uploads:/hedgedoc/public/uploads
ports:
- "3000:3000"
restart: always
depends_on:
- database
volumes:
database:
uploads:
```
After executing `docker-compose up`, HedgeDoc should be available at [http://127.0.0.1:3000](http://127.0.0.1:3000).
You can now continue to configure your container with environment variables.
Check out [the configuration docs](/configuration) for more details.
## Upgrading
!!! warning
Before you upgrade, **always read the release notes**.
You can find them on our [releases page](https://hedgedoc.org/releases/).
!!! info "Upgrading to 1.7"
Together with changing the name to "HedgeDoc" the default username,
password and database name have been changed in `docker-compose.yml`.
In order to migrate the existing database to the new default credentials, run
```shell
docker-compose exec database createuser --superuser -Uhackmd postgres
docker-compose exec database psql -Upostgres -c "alter role hackmd rename to hedgedoc; alter role hedgedoc with password 'password'; alter database hackmd rename to hedgedoc;"
```
before running `docker-compose up`.
You can upgrade to the latest release by stopping the containers and changing the referenced image version in `docker-compose.yml`.
Then run `docker-compose up` to start HedgeDoc again.
### Migrating from HackMD
If you used the [`docker-hackmd`](https://github.com/hackmdio/docker-hackmd) repository before,
you can migrate to [`hedgedoc-container`](https://github.com/hedgedoc/container).
`hedgedoc-container` is a fork of `docker-hackmd`, so you need to replace the upstream URL:
```shell
git remote set-url origin https://github.com/hedgedoc/container.git
git pull
```
Since both codebases diverged since the fork, we recommend that you read the
[HedgeDoc release notes](https://hedgedoc.org/releases/) at
least since 1.6.0 and follow any instructions present there. A particular issue
that has come up is when handling TLS connections when using a reverse proxy.
You must [set the `X-Forwarded-Proto` header
correctly](https://docs.hedgedoc.org/guides/reverse-proxy/).
## Backup
If you use a PostgreSQL database, you can leverage this command to create a backup:
```shell
docker-compose exec database pg_dump hedgedoc -U hedgedoc > backup.sql
```
## Restore
If you want to restore your PostgreSQL backup, run these commands before starting the application for the first time:
```shell
docker-compose up -d database
cat backup.sql | docker exec -i $(docker-compose ps -q database) psql -U hedgedoc
```
## Custom build
The default setting is to use pre-built docker images.
If you want to build your own containers uncomment the `build` section in the
[`docker-compose.yml`](https://github.com/hedgedoc/container/blob/master/docker-compose.yml)
and edit the
[`config.json`](https://github.com/hedgedoc/container/blob/master/resources/config.json).
If you change the database settings and don't use the `CMD_DB_URL` make sure
you edit the
[`.sequelizerc`](https://github.com/hedgedoc/container/blob/master/resources/.sequelizerc).
## Issues
