In need of a database
For a demonstration project of ours we need a database.
(First we made sure that our Docker client was running on the localhost)
Phoenix comes with PostgreSQL setup baked in hence we went with that
% docker volume create ticket
ticket
We needed somewhere to persist the data so we started by creating a volume and then turned on
% docker run -it --rm -v ticket:/var/lib/postgresql/data -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=secret postgresDocker didn't find any image locally - but that didn't stop it:
Unable to find image 'postgres:latest' locally

The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale "en_US.utf8".The default database encoding has accordingly been set to "UTF8".The default text search configuration will be set to "english".

With the Postgres ready we now had us a container with a database!
Notice that line The database cluster will be initialized with locale "en_US.utf8".The default database encoding has accordingly been set to "UTF8".The default text search configuration will be set to "english". ? I have a feeling that is going to hurt us later on, but for now we're good..
