Docker documentation:
### Build-in docker image
- build docker image `docker build -t monit .`
- start monit: `docker run --rm -it -p 2812:2812 -v $(pwd)/monitrc:/etc/monitrc monit`
### Docker Hub image
- pull docker image from docker hub: `docker pull kijart/monit:latest`
- start monit: `docker run --rm -it -p 2812:2812 -v $(pwd)/monitrc:/etc/monitrc kijart/monit:latest`
- create a docker container:
```bash
docker create \
--name=monit \
-p 2812:2812 \
-v $(pwd)/monitrc:/etc/monitrc \
kijart/monit:latest
```
### Docker compose
- create a container using docker-compose: `docker-compose up --no-start`
- start monit: `docker-compose up`
### Troubleshooting
If when starting Monit returns the following message: `The control file '/etc/monitrc' permission 0755 is wrong, maximum 0700 allowed`, simply give the appropriate permissions to _monitrc_: `chmod 700 monitrc`.
