Step-by-Step Guide to MEDIAWIKI Deployment

Docker Image Selection:
- Docker Image Name: mediawiki
Application Details:
- Application Name: mediawiki
- Resource Allocation: Set the desired resource allocation from 0-100%.
Protocol Configuration:
- Protocol: HTTP
- Port: 1880
Installation Options:
- Choose between "Default" or "Advanced" installation.
Advanced Installation (Optional):
- If selecting "Advanced," you can customize the environment variables and working directory:
- Environment Variables:
  Environment variables are dynamic values used by a containerized application for configuration. They are defined as key-value pairs, like API_KEY=xyz, and provide flexibility to adjust an app's behavior without changing its code.
  - Environment Variables: Define environment variables with keys and values (e.g., key=value).
- Working Directory:
  The working directory is the starting point inside a container where an app's files are located. It affects relative file paths and operations. For example, if set to /usr/src/yourAPP, an app will reference files from there, like /usr/src/yourAPP/data.txt.
  - Working Directory: Set the working directory for the application (e.g., usr/src/yourAPP).
  - Here use ( use the path after " :" )
  - -v myNodeREDdata:/data
Access Configuration:
- Choose between "Public" or "Private" access to the deployed application.
Installation:
- Click the "Install" button to initiate the deployment process.

By following these steps, you can effortlessly deploy an Node-RED instance with your chosen configurations.
