Ok, so for anyone stuck like I was, here's how to get Rocket Chat up and running with a MongoDB docker image: Install and Start MongoDB docker image Install Rocket.Chat docker image Change the MONGO_URL to reflect your host IP address ( Example: mongodb://192.168.1.10:27017/rocketchat ) Just be sure to use your host IP and the port you assigned to the MongoDB docker Change the ROOT_URL variable to also point to your host IP address ( Example: http://192.168.1.10:3000/rocketchat ) Click apply to create the docker and it should start on its own There doesn't appear to be any particular need to link the containers, but you could do that if you wanted and fiddle with the two variables above to reflect that.

Trying to get this up and running, but it doesn't work. Your instructions: Add in the attribute "Extra Parameters" the value "--link "MongoDB:db"". MongoDB is the name of the MongoDB docker container. Don't really make any sense. There's no place to add "attributes" only variables, and variables require 3 parameters: Name, Key, and Value. The Value field can not contain quotations. So the above has to be done when creating the container under the "Advanced options" which isn't shown by default. Well and good, but even adding that doesn't help. Still fails to start MongoError: failed to connect to server [mongo:27017] on first connect [MongoError: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND mongo mongo:27017]
