This is a fork of the official Board18 repo that adds support for running the site locally under docker-compose. This might be an easier way to run the site for local game box development if you don't want to learn how to run Apache, PHP and MySQL on your local environment.

I will try to keep this branch periodically up to date with the official branch.

Checkout this repository and from the root folder run:

docker-compose up

This will spin up the site and it should be available at http://localhost:8080

Just like normal Board18, the first account you register will be an admin on your local site. Email might work depending on your current internet access and how agreesive your personal email provider is about spamming emails from localhost services.

For more information on the different features of docker-compose please read their documentation.

The database is saved in a docker volume named b18. You can remove this volume with normal docker commands or by running docker-compose down --volumes if you want to clear it out and start again.
