Improve readme installation instructions #56

Open emmetog opened 8 years ago

emmetog commented 8 years ago

I'm trying to get Conveyor running for the first time but I'm running into problems with lack of documentation :S

In particular I'm not quite sure how to get converyor running on a swarm, there is mention that this can be done in the readme but I haven't figured out how to do it yet.

I realise that the way you guys do it is using cloudformation but I'm looking for a way to avoid cloudformation and use Conveyor on a simple docker host, is this possible? Could you improve the readme with some more detailed instructions/guidance for installation?

Thanks!

Hey @emmetog. Conveyor recently went through some big changes and the install docs haven't been updated to reflect that. I'll let you know when the docs are updated.

Regarding using swarm, Conveyor is agnostic to the Docker API that it talks to, so that can be a local Docker daemon or Docker Swarm serving up multiple Docker daemons. I'll try to add some more information about what a swarm setup might look like.

surely the instructions should be a one line docker command which pulls and runs conveyor with env variables set
