Local test using Docker

To start it locally you should have Docker installed. Afterwards just use the following command to create a PostgreSQL database and the postgresql application:

If you made changes to the application itself, you can rebuild the docker image using

docker-compose build

To bind the app to other PostgreSQL services than a9s-postgresql10, have a look at the VCAPServices struct.
