Docker 🐋
Docker is the preferred way to run AdventureLog on your local machine. It is a lightweight containerization technology that allows you to run applications in isolated environments called containers. Note: This guide mainly focuses on installation with a linux based host machine, but the steps are similar for other operating systems.
Prerequisites
- Docker installed on your machine/server. You can learn how to download it here.
Getting Started
Get the docker-compose.yml file from the AdventureLog repository. You can download it from here or run this command to download it directly to your machine:
::: tip
If running on an ARM based machine, you will need to use a different PostGIS Image. It is recommended to use the tobi312/rpi-postgresql-postgis:15-3.3-alpine-arm image or a custom version found here. The AdventureLog containers are ARM compatible.
