Docker image for Liferay v7.x bundeled with wildfly and PostgreSQL 10

The project will build a docker image with up and running Liferay 7.x distribution. The image include :

• PostgreSQL 10 database

• JDK installation from provided tar.gz

• Liferay installation from provided Liferay-portal-wildfly-x bundle zip archive

Note : The docker image should not be used in production environment.

This image is based on Ikizema (https://github.com/ikizema) liferay docker image : https://github.com/ikizema/docker-postgre9.3-liferay

Required Customization

Before running the docker builder, you need to provide following packages in ./assets/packages/ folder :

• Oracle JDK archive : jdk-8uXX-linux-x64.tar.gz

• Official Liferay Portal wildfly bundle .zip archive : liferay-portal-wildfly-7.x<...>.zip

Added to those packages, you may need to create a "/opt/liferay/docker" folder to be able to link a host deploy folder to the one in the container (used in the docker run command below)
