> I installed guacamole as docker container for the first time. Great software! I followed the guide on [https://guacamole.incubator.apache.org/doc/gug/guacamole-docker.html]. There is a lot of unnecessary work to get the container up and running, here are some suggestions to improve the documentation:
> # The link flag is a deprecated legacy feature of Docker. It may eventually be removed. [Legacy container links |https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/networking/default_network/dockerlinks/]. It is no problem to get guacamole running with a user defined network.
> # The database should be generated automatically on first run. The user and database could be automatically created by [mariadb|https://hub.docker.com/_/mariadb/].
> # ...You should add mariadb as possible backend.
> # Due to its complexity (three services) you should provide a {{docker-compose.yml}} file for use with [docker-compose|https://docs.docker.com/compose/]. This also creates an user defined network.
> Here is an example {{docker-compose.yml}} for use with mariadb:
> {noformat}
> version: '3'
> services:
>   guacd:
>     image: guacamole/guacd
>     depends_on:
>       - db
>   guac:
>     image: guacamole/guacamole
>     ports:
>       - 8080:8080
>     depends_on:
>       - db
>       - guacd
>     environment:
>       - GUACD_HOSTNAME=guacd
>       - MYSQL_PASSWORD=x
>       - MYSQL_DATABASE=guacamole_db
>       - MYSQL_USER=guacamole_user
>       - MYSQL_HOSTNAME=db
>   db:
>     image: mariadb
>     volumes:
>       - /srv/docker/guacamole-mysql:/var/lib/mysql
>     environment:
>       - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=x
>       - MYSQL_PASSWORD=x
>       - MYSQL_DATABASE=guacamole_db
>       - MYSQL_USER=guacamole_user
> {noformat}
> I don't know why, but {{GUACD_HOSTNAME}} and {{MYSQL_HOSTNAME}} are needed (maybe a bug?)
