So it's safer to configure, as we don't need to pass env variables to a docker run service. Also it's easier to configure without needing to pass a whole lot of env vars.
Usage
Installation
The easiest way this is to run the docker container and set it to restart always. This basically makes it a system service that will always run.
To make it safe and avoid passing credentials we're using a configuration file.
