Define an Adempiere image connected to external PostgreSQL starting from sources

[sramazzina]

We want to have an Adempiere image generated starting from the Adempiere sources that can be appropriately compiled at any tag or branch level so that we can have a very flexible way to create a container. The image must work primarily with by connecting to an external container containing the Porstgres DB for best production performance and better architectural design. Main target for this kind of generated image is for a use in production.

Implementation already finished on a forked repository at this url https://github.com/serasoft/adempiereDocker.

The image takes an already compiled binary distribution, made available under a dist directory and generates the ADempiere image. It is possible to launch the system through docker-compose by using the compose file named docker-compose.yml available in directory compose/postgresql.

Waiting for the sources to be merged in the adempiere-docker repository to complete the process.

First release of the docker image released today. Give it a try

Added new environment variable RESTORE_SEED defaulted to N to prevent the drop and re-creation of an existing ADempiere DB. Useful when we are upgrading the container to a new release.
