@LinuXY thanks for this. Looks pretty useful!

Yes. I definitely concede that this is a compromise on the Docker model. I say so in the post and mention using compose. At least I have all the bits playing nicely which would be the first step to splitting them all up anyway :)

You're probably right. To be honest, just an opportunity to play around with Docker and make it easier to duplicate for others in our team.

Yeah, I was a bit disappointed with the upgrade methods for InfluxDB, but I've noticed the leak of the _internal DB https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/issues/5290. I'll probably upgrade soon.

The motivation to put this into an image was that other teams wanted to deploy this and they'll probably end up on the same host so I was looking for isolation of the databases (mainly to protect our team's working dashboard from other fiddlers).
