Installation

The easiest way to get up and running is to use the provided docker-compose.yml It will automatically load your .env file and start the server.

$ docker-compose up -d

The compose file uses ports 8080 - 8082 for the API (3 instances).
You should set up your reverse proxy to handle the requests to the API.

You can use the docker-to-systemd file in this repo to quickly create a systemd service that starts runs the compose script.
