Adobe ColdFusion development with Docker starter project

This repo exists to make your life easier when starting a new Adobe ColdFusion project or converting an existing ColdFusion project to run inside a Docker container.

The only prerequisite that you need to use this repo is to have Docker installed. You can install Docker Desktop on Mac or Windows. If you are on Windows, I highly recommend setting up Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and using it for your development environment.

• Download the zip file from GitHub and extract it to a folder.
• In the folder where you extracted the zip file, run the following command in a terminal window docker-compose up
• In your browser, browse to https://localhost:8500
• Add your application code in the app/ folder located in the directory where you extracted the repo
• View the ColdFusion logs under logs/ for execptions and other log information you need while developing

Notes

• If you're on Mac or Linux (including WSL), you'll need to run the fixperms.sh file in the root of the repo to set the permissions on the logs/ folder correctly so that ColdFusion can create its log files there.
• If you need a specific version of ColdFusion, you can specify a particular tag on line 4 of docker-compose.yml. You can find a complete list of tags for the image here

I'd love to hear from you on what else you would like to see in this starter project. Please create an issue on the repo or clone the repo and submit a PR with your proposed changes.
