# a "service". In our case, our Rails application is one
# service ("web") and our PostgreSQL database instance
# is another service ("database").

      # We need to tell Docker where on the PostgreSQL
      # container we want to keep the PostgreSQL data.
      # In this case we're telling it to use a directory
      # called /var/lib/postgresql/data, although it
      # conceivably could have been something else.
      #
      # We're associating this directory with something
      # called a volume. (You can see all your Docker
      # volumes by running +docker volume ls+.) The name
      # of our volume is db_data.

      # This copies our init.sql into our container, to
      # a special file called
      # /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/init.sql. Anything
      # at this location will get executed one per
      # container, i.e. it will get executed the first
      # time the container is created but not again.
      #
      # The init.sql file is a one-line that creates a
      # user called (arbitrarily) boats_development.

  web:

    # changed a file.
