Hi, Trying to learn how to make a docker compose file from scratch, but I cannot find complete documentation of the variables, options, etc

This documentation seem to be incomplete:

> **[Environment Variables](https://docs.rocket.chat/quick-start/environment-configuration/environment-variables)**
>
> Configuring Rocket.Chat via environment variables

There are variables on the docker compose sample doc that are not described there.

Hi!

Those will only specify system mandatory and optional environment settings.

if you want a full list of settings, you can grab them from:

> **[Settings Endpoints](https://developer.rocket.chat/reference/api/rest-api/endpoints/core-endpoints/settings-endpoints)**

Let me know if this helps 🙂

Thanks!
