# By default, Etherpad container is built and run in "production" mode. This is
# leaner (development dependencies are not installed) and runs faster (among
# other things, assets are minified & compressed).
ENV NODE_ENV=production

# Follow the principle of least privilege: run as unprivileged user.
#
# Running as non-root enables running this image in platforms like OpenShift
# that do not allow images running as root.
