## weird stuff

- `env.docker` has to be in the running container in `/var/www/.env` and owned by `www-data.` this is done via `configs:` statement in `compose.yml,` and then via entrypoint (it copies the file and changes permissions). this is a hack and there's probably a better way of doing it, but putting the file directly in `/var/www/.env` as a config doesn't work: the file is empty, owned by root and the app crashes saying that it's a read-only filesystem.
