Build arguments

When building the Docker image, you may use a few other special options that you generally can't use with a published image.

To use build arguments in Docker Compose, do the following:

compose.yaml
services:
  bot:
    build:
      context: https://github.com/Sutaai/dockerized-red
      args:
        ARGUMENTS: here
    ...
Variable Description
PYTHON_VERSION The version of Python you wish to use when running Red-DiscordBot.
APT_INSTALL Additional packages to install during build. This is done during build time and not runtime to avoid downloading packages every time you reboot the container.
