Remove setup.sh as a dependency

[darrylAlexander]

Hi All,

I came across Precious Plastics earlier this summer and it is amazing! Good job on the site so far, I would like to get involved as well and as I am a software engineer, I thought would start here. I have read through the other issues and thought I would raise a new one for this particular problem. Please let me know if this was wrong and whether it fits somewhere else.

Currently the docker container for the site requires running setup.sh after running the container. Docker containers are supposed to contain everything you need without having to run destructive processes after it. I think the docker solution should be able to do everything we need without having to run additional processes.

I propose creating the site from the official WordPress image and using the RUN commands in a docker file to install dependencies for plugins and the plugins themselves. the compose file could be amended as well removing anything no longer needed and tweaks to volume maps, WordPress, MySQL config, etc...

If you accept this issue, I would also be willing to have a go at doing this. I've played around with this and have managed to get the theme installed from using the WordPress image as a base.

What do you think?

thanks! @nzchicken was working on this, maybe he could help out?
That said, we are currently working on a much bigger ambitious project using react and node.js. Not sure if thats your cup of tea but we could also really use some help there 🤘

@davehakkens - I would be happy to help out with the much bigger ambitious project of using react and node.js. I have used JavaScript loads with node.js. I haven't used react but I can learn it and contribute no problem. Just point me in the right direction.
