Installing Flarum via Docker in Plesk

Nabix

Hello everyone!

I'm considering using Flaurm for my business support forums. Currently, for our web server, we are operating a Ubuntu 20.04 system with the latest version of Plesk installed. Can we install Flarum via Docker in our Plesk panel? If so, how would I go about doing this?

Thank you in advance for your support 🙂

Nabix Plesk ships with a composer setup and all other requirements to just install and use Flarum.

I don't know about Plesk but currently I am using a dockerized image in production with docker-compose (it is a small forum so I don't really need to scale horizontally with swarm or kubernetes) and it works quite well.
There are some images already built online and with some helpers script to simplify the installation of extensions, mondedie is the one with more active development but I always had problems with running it, crazymax is less active but honestly I had more success using it.
Keep in mind that if you plan to use one of these images and an extension requires additional packages or edits to the nginx configuration (eg, every local websocket extension) you will need to fork and modify them for your needs so at least some experience with unix/linux systems is required.
