Deploy Focalboard with Docker

Docker

The Dockerfile gives a quick and easy way to pull the latest Focalboard server and deploy it locally. In the example below, the Focalboard database and files will be persisted in a named volumed called fbdata.

From the Focalboard project root directory:

docker build -f docker/Dockerfile -t focalboard .
docker run -it -v "fbdata:/opt/focalboard/data" -p 80:8000 focalboard

Open a browser to localhost to start

Docker-Compose

Docker-Compose provides the option to automate the build and run step, or even include some of the steps from the personal server setup.

To start the server, change directory to focalboard/docker and run:

docker-compose up

This will automatically build the focalboard image and start it with the http port mapping. These examples also create a persistent named volume called fbdata.

To run Focalboard with a nginx proxy and a postgres backend, change directory to focalboard/docker and run:

docker-compose -f docker-compose-db-nginx.yml up
