# Etherpad Lite image for docker

on debian jessie instead of the official node docker image, since the latest
stable version of etherpad-lite does not support npm 2.

First you need a running mysql container, for example:
Copy-paste the following content in a `docker-compose.yml` file
```bash
$ docker network create ep_network
$ docker run -d --network ep_network -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password --name ep_mysql mysql
```yaml

command: --character-set-server=utf8mb4 --collation-server=utf8mb4_unicode_ci

Finally you can start an instance of Etherpad Lite:
```bash
$ docker run -d \
--network ep_network \
-e ETHERPAD_DB_HOST=ep_mysql \
-e ETHERPAD_DB_PASSWORD=password \
-p 9001:9001 \

server if it does not already exist.
You can now access Etherpad Lite from http://localhost:9001/
