Docker

Make sure you have Docker installed.

Quick Install

The image is available in Docker Hub under the name supabase/realtime.

You can use the docker-compose file in this repository as a starting point. Note that this already includes a Postgres database image, so you don't have to set one up yourself.

Fill up the environment variables as appropriate, and then run the image:

docker-compose up

Build from Scratch

Build the image:

docker build --tag foo .

Run the image:

# Update the environment variables to point to your own database

docker run --rm \

-e DB_HOST=host.docker.internal \

-e DB_NAME=postgres \

-e DB_USER=postgres \

-e DB_PASSWORD=postgres \

-e DB_PORT=5432 \

-e PORT=4000 \

-e HOSTNAME=localhost \
