git clone https://github.com/CanastaWiki/Canasta
docker-compose.override.yml
file. Under the web
container's configuration, add:image: canasta:dev
build:
context: ./Canasta/
This will use the Dockerfile
located in the newly-added Canasta/
directory.
If you made no other changes to your docker-compose.override.yml
file, it should appear to be:
version: '3.7'

Canasta supports creating derivative images using your own Dockerfile
when done in the officially supported way.
Rather than forking the Canasta image's repo and modifying its Dockerfile, the correct way to make a derivative image is by creating your own Dockerfile whose base image is the Canasta image. The directives on your Dockerfile therefore is quite concise, clean, and only contain changes made to Canasta.
You can change _sources/canasta/CanastaDefaultSettings.php
however you want, but you should never change _sources/canasta/LocalSettings.php
, as this is reserved for Canasta developers to make fundamental changes needed to keep MediaWiki working on the Canasta tech stack.
Keep in mind:
CanastaDefaultSettings.php
will still be changed by Canasta developers. Whenever you update the base image your derivative is using, it is your responsibility to incorporate new changes to it.If you want to contribute changes to base Canasta rather than simply making a change in a derivative image, you can make changes to the Canasta image at https://github.com/CanastaWiki/Canasta.
