Build and start Ditto

In order to build Ditto, you'll need

JDK 8 >= 1.8.0_92 (due to a bug in older versions of the JDK you'll get a compile error)
Apache Maven 3.x installed

In order to first build Ditto and then start the built Docker images

# if you have the docker daemon running with remote access enabled (e.g. in a Vagrant box or on localhost):
mvn clean install -Pdocker-build-image -Ddocker.daemon.hostname=<ip/host of your docker daemon>
# if you have the docker daemon running on your machine and you are running on Unix, you can also connect against the docker socket:
mvn clean install -Pdocker-build-image -Ddocker.daemon.url=unix:///var/run/docker.sock

cd docker/
# the "dev.env" file contains the SNAPSHOT number of Ditto, copy it to ".env" so that docker compose uses it:
cp dev.env .env
docker-compose up -d
