I’m running a server with Ubuntu 14.04 and managed with Plesk Onyx (preview of version 17). One of the awesome things about the upcoming Plesk release is their support for Docker images. So setting up a domain or subdomain on my server and running a docker container is about three clicks hard. I tried installing Discourse from the Docker hub but this failed and then after some careful reading realized that I can’t install it without the Discourse installer. Is there any way to use Discourse in a container with an existing Docker install?
