Hello and thank you. I recently downloaded the image, ofbiz/fulltrunk, to see if ofbiz would meet my needs and it appears that it will far exceed them! Is there a way to run a docker without the sample data? I fully believe the stock db will be plenty for my needs especially if I can start with an empty version or scrub the current data.
I want to run ofbiz in a docker container rather than a standalone.
