Running Hammy in Docker Compose

To run Hammy using Docker Compose, follow these steps:

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/go-hammy/hammy/main/examples/docker-compose.yaml
docker-compose up

This will download the docker-compose.yaml file and start the Hammy service along with any other defined services. The default configuration maps the local content directory to the container's web root, allowing you to easily manage your web content.

Note that while Docker Compose simplifies the deployment process, it does not handle SSL termination. To expose Hammy securely over HTTPS, you will need to set up a reverse proxy or load balancer that can manage SSL certificates and forward traffic to Hammy. This ensures secure communication between clients and your server.

Customizing the Docker Compose Setup

To customize the Hammy setup in Docker Compose, you can modify the docker-compose.yaml file to include additional services, volumes, or configurations. For instance, you might add a database service or adjust environment variables to suit your deployment needs. This flexibility allows you to tailor the setup to your specific requirements.
