Hello,  
I’m attempting to grab the newest version of the docker-compose file from the cht-core repository, but it appears that it is missing. Please assist me in getting the file.

This is the description from the cht documentation.

> Setting up a local environment to build and test CHT 4.x applications

Hi @KiharaSimon

Thanks for reporting. The file has been removed as part of the migration to the new architecture.  
We’re in the process of updating the documentation: [Correct docker compose link on 'CHT Local Environment Setup' · Issue #804 · medic/cht-docs · GitHub](https://github.com/medic/cht-docs/issues/804)

In the meantime, can you please use a docker-compose file from a previous release, for example: [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/medic/cht-core/3.17.x/docker-compose.yml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/medic/cht-core/3.17.x/docker-compose.yml)

@KiharaSimon - while we had done some earlier updates to our docs to fix the compose file location, clearly we missed some - sorry! Thanks so much for letting us know.

I’ve just updated the docs to be correct ([see this PR](https://github.com/medic/cht-docs/pull/809)) with an assist from @diana . Please let us know if you have any other issues!
