-
docker-compose is not strictly necessary, it just provides a nice framework for handling the ports, volume, and environment settings. Since it is only one container, a similar effect could be reached using only the
dockercommand passing these things via command line options. -
That the intent of this is to build and run the docker image from source in a local environment. Another consideration would be to simplify things for servers that have internet connectively by publishing a docker images from the CI pipeline so that docker-compose (or docker) could be used without checking out the code.
