I've managed to start latest Alfresco on Docker on CentOS 7.
I have plenty of experience in Alfresco environment in old fashioned way, but zero in the new reality so be kind to me. 
So, this is dockered Alfresco, and I'd like to do some prototyping in developing some test web scripts.
How do I do it, for example in Eclipse dev environment?
TIA!

I did it finally!
Several things were wrong in my setup, so it may help some unfortunate soul:
1. Your DB URI/name is not "localhost" or "127.0.0.1", but how you name it in your docker-compose file. My DB:
database:
image: mysql:5.7
mem_limit: 512m
...2. Wherever you reference DB, use that name, for example in alfresco service in docker-compose,yml file:
JAVA_OPTS ... -Ddb.url=\"jdbc:mysql://database:3306/alfresco?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&autoReconnect=true&useSSL=true\"
In YOUR OWN alfresco-global.properties file:
##
# MySQL
##
db.name=alfresco
db.username=alfresco
db.password=alfresco
db.driver=com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
db.url=jdbc:mysql://database/${db.name}?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8
db.master.url=jdbc:mysql://database/
db.master.username=${db.username}
db.master.password=${db.password}
db.drop.command=drop database if exists ${db.name}
db.create.command=create database ${db.name} CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin;2. Volumes for alfresco service (watch out for writing permissions if on Linux!):
volumes:
- ./volumes/data/alf_data:/usr/local/tomcat/alf_data
- ./mysql-connector-java-8.0.25.jar:/usr/local/tomcat/lib/mysql-connector-java-8.0.25.jar
- ./alfresco-global.properties:/usr/local/tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties3. My complete database service (with volumes):
database:
image: mysql:5.7
mem_limit: 512m
environment:
- MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root
- MYSQL_DATABASE=alfresco
- MYSQL_USER=alfresco
- MYSQL_PASSWORD=alfresco
command: --explicit_defaults_for_timestamp
ports:
- 3306:3306
security_opt:
- seccomp:unconfined
cap_add:
- SYS_NICE # CAP_SYS_NICE
volumes:
- ./volumes/data/mysql_data:/var/lib/mysql
- ./volumes/logs/mysql:/var/log/mysqlI'm happy, officially!
Yes, that's heavy on the web scripts developing with Maven and creating AMPs, what I'm the most interested is the part of Docker deployment of AMPs on dockered Alfresco, to be precise on Alfresco in docker-compose. I'm as a babe regarding Docker and docker-compose, I need baby food.
