Using the marvambass/mediawiki Container

You can use SQLite or MySQL or Postgresql as a Database.

So you might want to use a running MySQL Container (you could use: marvambass/mysql).

If you want a HTAccess protection, you just need to link in the htpasswd file to /htpasswd - after that the HTAccess protection will be enabled

You need to --link your mysql container to marvambass/phpmyadmin

docker run -d \
-p 443:443 \
--link mysql:mysql \
-v /my/dbpath/:/usr/share/nginx/data/ \
-v /my/uploads/:/uploads \
-v /my/LocalSettings.php:/LocalSettings.php \
-v /my/htpasswd:/htpasswd \
--name mediawiki \
