I’ve put together a cloud install profile and documented it here if anyone is interested. It contains a lot of answers to questions I ran into as I worked through INSTALL.md and further simplifies getting up and running.

I do have some questions specifically around python-docker vs docker-py. It seems like the requirement is to install one or the other but not both. Also it seems the nodejs requirement in INSTALL.md is more of a \>= version requirement. I suspect these may be closely tied to versions of packages in centos7 specifically.

I also have an RTFM question if anyone has a fast answer for me. What is use\_docker\_compose=true/false setting doing for me?

Hopefully this helps someone along the way.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions and thanks for your work.

Sincerely,

Ray Ferguson
