Hi Daniel This github repo is to setup dev environment with MySQL and PostgreSQL databases.
For production we need to create a bind mount for content, images and logs directories when creating docker image. Whenever I get a chance will create and push OFBiz Trunk docker image to the docker hub with external database support (MySQL and PostgreSQL) and also share Dockerfile for reference.
