Setup compose

This compose yaml file will help get the compiler to work with PostgreSQL so you can compile your 4GL files which link to your database.

1. Copy the sample

   cp docker-compose.yml.sample docker-compose.yml
       

2. Change the areas marked
3. Build

   docker-compose up -d --build
       

4. Test

   docker-compose exec docker-aubit4gl bash
       

   Change to your 4gl code and compile, then run.

5. Stop

   docker-compose stop
       

Build and updating docker

docker build -t map7/aubit4gl .;docker push map7/aubit4gl:latest
