Could you tell me how to use docker install to generate the docker-comoose.yml file?

TL;DR
User is having trouble installing a new instance. Solution: The user was able to find the solution by reading the pending release notes and modifying the development docker-compose.yml file to production. They suggest updating the documentation to avoid confusion.

Good... Now look in the current folder

Drake

There should be an appwrite folder with a docker-compose.yml file and .env file

Now I was able to understand the complete installation. Wouldn't it be better to update the documentation. So as not to get confused?

Thank you very much for your attention.

The manual installation part or what?

Marcelo Delta

We got confused in the steps. The command creates all necessary files for installation. And the documentation for manual installation states that it must be downloaded from the repository. It's confusing.

Drake

Yes, we will be updating the manual installation docs

I also wasted few hours, tried to modify development docker-compose.yml(from github) to production as I could not find it anywhere and Manual install docs did not state that you can generate production yaml this way. Reading this solved the issue. thanks. would like if this clearly in docs

There was a PR pending release (which just happened now): https://appwrite.io/docs/advanced/self-hosting#manual
