Darryl Nixon 3cc1dfcd14 We'll deploy with docker because it's easier for
students to try, review, and give feedback.
Also, maybe it'll make actual development easier.

## Deployment
Installation instructions are only provided for `docker`-based deployment. For manual deployment, you'll need to set environment variables (see `.env`) for database access before running `ghostforge` yourself.
### With docker
You'll need `docker-compose` installed or you can convert the contents of `docker-compose.yml` into `docker run` commands yourself. Install and run `ghostforge` with something like:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/darrylnixon/ghostforge.git;
cd ghostforge;
docker-compose up --detach --build;
docker exec --interactive --tty ghostforge ghostforge_adduser;
```
Follow the prompts to create an administrator user. Assuming you didn't change the default port, browse to [http://localhost:1337/](http://localhost:1337/) to begin using `ghostforge` with your new credentials.
