I am working to setup Ignition with K8 using a docker image and I need features like source control, MQTT, Database connection to MS SQL outside of docker.

There are a lot of custom images out there that are based on the Ignition image and wondering if there is a way with docker compose to setup MQTT with the standard image that would allow something like IIOT\_MODULES\_ENABLED=mqtt-transmission,mqtt-engine,mqtt-distributor and would also need to apply the license etc etc.

Is there more information somewhere about using docker compose to configure? I know I will need to convert the compose to K8 as well. Any help would be great.

@kcollins is your man.

He had sent me some links to video tutorials via PM, however, the link has now expired (twitch).

There are also now elective studies regarding Ignition with Docker on IU. I haven't gotten around to watching them yet.
