In 21.05 we moved to composer 2.x and did alot of code and build cleanup - moving image creation over to Kaniko. In 0.28.0 we changed the container http port from 80 to 8080 to allow root privileges to be dropped In 0.12.2 we removed DB_PORT . You can now specify the port via DB_HOST like DB_HOST=mysql:3306

With Docker Compose is a Quickstart very easy. Run the following command:

docker-compose up

and after that open your Browser and go to http:https://localhost:8080 . You can login with username '[email protected]' and password 'password'.

If you have any issues feel free to create an issue on GitHub.

Note that if you want to use LDAP, $ has to be escape like \$, i.e. -e "LDAP_USER_FILTER"="(&(uid=\${user}))"

Networking changed in Docker v1.9, so you need to do one of the following steps.

1. MySQL Container:

docker run -d \
-p 3306:3306 \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=secret \
-e MYSQL_DATABASE=bookstack \
-e MYSQL_USER=bookstack \
-e MYSQL_PASSWORD=secret \
--name bookstack_db \
mysql:5.7.21

2. BookStack Container:

docker run -d --link bookstack_db_:mysql \
-p 8080:8080 \
--name bookstack_0.31.6 \
solidnerd/bookstack:0.31.6

1. Create a shared network:

docker network create bookstack_nw

2. Run MySQL container :

docker run -d --net bookstack_nw  \
-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=secret \
-e MYSQL_DATABASE=bookstack \
-e MYSQL_USER=bookstack \
-e MYSQL_PASSWORD=secret \
 --name="bookstack_db" \
 mysql:5.7.21

3. Run BookStack Container

docker run -d --net bookstack_nw \
-e DB_HOST=bookstack_db:3306 \
-e DB_DATABASE=bookstack \
-e DB_USERNAME=bookstack \
-e DB_PASSWORD=secret \
-p 8080:8080 \
--name="bookstack_0.31.6" \
 solidnerd/bookstack:0.31.6

To access your .env file and important bookstack folders on your host system change <HOST> in the following line to your host directory and add it then to your run command:

--mount type=bind,source=<HOST>/.env,target=/var/www/bookstack/.env \
-v <HOST>:/var/www/bookstack/public/uploads \
-v <HOST>:/var/www/bookstack/storage/uploads

In case of a windows host machine the .env file has to be already created in the host directory otherwise a folder named .env will be created.

After these steps you can visit http:https://localhost:8080 . You can login with username '[email protected]' and password 'password'.
