### Set your container timezone (optional)
If you want your running container to be in your timezone, then add this to your Dockerfile
```Dockerfile
# Set out local time
RUN ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Melbourne /etc/localtime
```
<small>**NOTE**: This will set your timezone to Melbourne, Australia - naturally, choose the appropriate Country/City for your timezone.
