A self-hosted chat app for small teams.

docker run  --name some-letschat --link some-mongo:mongo -d sdelements/lets-chat

If you'd like to be able to access the instance from the host without the container's IP, standard port mappings can be used:

docker run  --name some-letschat --link some-mongo:mongo -p 8080:8080 -d sdelements/lets-chat

Then, access it via http://localhost:8080 or http://host-ip:8080 in a browser.

Example docker-compose.yml for sdelements/lets-chat:

app:
  image: sdelements/lets-chat
  links:
    - mongo
  ports:
    - 8080:8080
    - 5222:5222

mongo:
  image: mongo:latest

Run docker-compose up, wait for it to initialize completely, and visit http://localhost:8080 or http://host-ip:8080.

You can config your Let's Chat Docker instance using one of the following methods:
