+1 for this.
Most popular. But missing in coolify :(

What's the best way to install it on Coolify?

Can we use the from git repo installation? https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker.git

Since Discourse is not using Docker Compose, but an own launcher, I wasn't ready to integrate it deep.
What I wanted and achieved is Discourse running on Coolify server, being routed through the in-built Traefik to the correct container.

Host is running https://github.com/discourse/discourse_docker and the latest Coolify v4.0.0-beta.360.

This required only a tiny Discourse re-configuration. To do it, in /var/discourse/containers/app.yml I disabled the socketed server and then used labels and docker_args to set up Traefik to find the Discourse, handle HTTP->HTTPS redirection, get certificates and proxy requests from FORUM-HOSTNAME.COM to Discourse container:

templates:
  - "templates/postgres.template.yml"
  - "templates/redis.template.yml"
  - "templates/web.template.yml"
  ## Uncomment the next line to enable the IPv6 listener
  #- "templates/web.ipv6.template.yml"
  - "templates/web.ratelimited.template.yml"
  ## Uncomment these two lines if you wish to add Lets Encrypt (https)
#  - "templates/web.ssl.template.yml"
#  - "templates/web.letsencrypt.ssl.template.yml"
#  - "templates/web.socketed.template.yml"

## which TCP/IP ports should this container expose?
## If you want Discourse to share a port with another webserver like Apache or nginx,
## see https://meta.discourse.org/t/17247 for details
expose:
#  - "80:80"   # http
#  - "443:443" # https

docker_args:
  - '--network=coolify'

labels:
  app_name: discourse
  traefik.enable: true

  traefik.http.middlewares.discourse_redirect2https.redirectscheme.scheme: https
  traefik.http.middlewares.gzip.compress: true

  traefik.http.routers.discourse.rule: Host(`FORUM-HOSTNAME.COM`)

Great, thanks. Can you give a more detailed tutorial on how to install this version via Coolify?
Do I install this via "Public Repository"?
Do I still use Nixpacks as Build Pack or Docker?
The Discourse re-configuration will be done after the successfull installation, correct? Can I also use this with Caddy as Proxy?
