```bash
git clone https://github.com/frappe/frappe_docker
cd frappe_docker
cp example.env .env
# Edit .env file with your configuration
```

2. **Deploy with production settings:**

```bash
docker compose up -d
```

### ARM64 Architecture Support

For ARM64 systems (Apple Silicon, Raspberry Pi):

```bash
# Build ARM64 images
docker buildx bake --no-cache --set "*.platform=linux/arm64"

# Modify pwd.yml to add platform: linux/arm64 to all services
# Then deploy
docker compose -f pwd.yml up -d
```

## Bench Wrapper Script

To simplify working with bench commands, we provide a convenient wrapper script `bench.sh` that eliminates the need to type `docker compose exec backend bench` repeatedly.

### Setup

```bash
# Make the script executable (one-time setup)
chmod +x bench.sh
```

### Usage

The script automatically detects which compose file you're using and provides a simpler interface:

```bash
# Instead of: docker compose exec backend bench new-site mysite.local
./bench.sh new-site mysite.local

# Instead of: docker compose exec backend bench --site mysite.local migrate
./bench.sh --site mysite.local migrate

# With specific project name
./bench.sh -p erpnext-prod --site production.local backup

# Get help
./bench.sh --help
```

### Features

- **Auto-detection**: Automatically finds and uses the correct compose file (pwd.yml or compose.yaml)
- **Project support**: Use `-p` flag for specific docker-compose projects
- **Full compatibility**: Supports all bench commands and arguments
- **Error handling**: Checks if containers are running before executing commands
- **Help system**: Built-in help with common command examples

## Deployment Options

### Development Environment

Perfect for developers working on Frappe apps:

```bash
# Setup development environment with VSCode integration
cp -R devcontainer-example .devcontainer
cp -R development/vscode-example development/.vscode

# Open in VSCode with Dev Containers extension
code .
# Then: "Reopen in Container"
```

**Features:**

- Hot-reload support
- Debugging capabilities
- Pre-configured VSCode settings
- Multiple Python/Node versions

### Production Environment

For production deployments:

```bash
# Using standard compose file
docker compose up -d

# With external database/Redis
# Configure DB_HOST, REDIS_CACHE, REDIS_QUEUE in .env
docker compose up -d
```

**Features:**

- Auto-restart on failure
- Health checks
- Log rotation
- Backup capabilities

### Single Server Setup

Simplified setup for single server deployments:

```bash
docker compose -f pwd.yml up -d
```

This creates a complete ERPNext instance with all required services.

## Architecture

The Frappe Docker setup consists of multiple interconnected services:

### Core Services

| Service         | Purpose                     | Port |
| --------------- | --------------------------- | ---- |
| **backend**     | Gunicorn application server | 8000 |
| **frontend**    | Nginx reverse proxy         | 8080 |
| **websocket**   | Socket.io real-time server  | 9000 |
| **scheduler**   | Background job scheduler    | -    |
| **queue-short** | Short-running job worker    | -    |
| **queue-long**  | Long-running job worker     | -    |

### Supporting Services

| Service         | Purpose                     | Default      |
| --------------- | --------------------------- | ------------ |
| **db**          | MariaDB/PostgreSQL database | MariaDB 10.6 |
| **redis-cache** | Redis cache server          | Redis 6.2    |
| **redis-queue** | Redis queue server          | Redis 6.2    |

### Service Flow

```
User Request → Nginx (frontend) → Gunicorn (backend) → Database
                ↓                      ↓
            WebSocket              Redis Cache
                                      ↓
                                  Job Queues → Workers
```

## Common Tasks

### Using the Bench Wrapper Script

For convenience, we provide a `bench.sh` wrapper script that simplifies running bench commands from your host machine.

```bash
# Make the script executable (first time only)
chmod +x bench.sh

# Create a new site
./bench.sh new-site mysite.local --admin-password=admin --install-app erpnext

# Run migrations
./bench.sh --site mysite.local migrate

# Backup a site
./bench.sh --site mysite.local backup

# Get help
./bench.sh --help
```

The script automatically detects which compose file you're using and handles the docker compose execution for you.

### Site Management

Using wrapper script:

```bash
./bench.sh new-site mysite.local \
  --mariadb-user-host-login-scope=% \
  --db-root-password=admin \

  --install-app erpnext
```

Or directly with docker compose:

```bash
docker compose exec backend bench new-site mysite.local \
  --mariadb-user-host-login-scope=% \
  --db-root-password=admin \
  --admin-password=admin \
  --install-app erpnext
