Docker: skygear server not starting, connection refused

I followed the Docker manual on https://docs.skygear.io/server/guide/getting-started-docker. I used Kitematic to download Skygear Server from SkygearIO. When the server tries to start it can't connect to a database.

ERRO[0001] Unable to begin transaction for schema migration: dial tcp
[::1]:5432: getsockopt: connection refused  logger=skydb
ERRO[0001] Failed to start skygear: failed to open connection: skydb/pq: 
unable to connect to database because of a network error = dial tcp 
[::1]:5432: getsockopt: connection refused

I can't seem to find the problem.

Solution
