If you'd like a different database password, you should also change it in the `docker-compose.yml` **before** your first run. If you'd like further customization, have a look at the [config file](configuration.md) named `lemmy.hjson`, and adjust it accordingly.
You'll also need to copy the following to `nginx.conf` in the root of your `lemmy` folder. This will ensure the proxy setup by `docker-compose` will function properly: Finally, run:
```
worker_processes 1;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
upstream lemmy {
# this needs to map to the lemmy (server) docker service hostname
server "lemmy:8536";
}
upstream lemmy-ui {
# this needs to map to the lemmy-ui docker service hostname
server "lemmy-ui:1234";
}
server {
# this is the port inside docker, not the public one yet
listen 80;
# change if needed, this is facing the public web
server_name localhost;

# frontend general requests
location / {
# distinguish between ui requests and backend
# don't change lemmy-ui or lemmy here, they refer to the upstream definitions on top
set $proxpass "http://lemmy-ui";
if ($http_accept ~ "^application/.*$") {
set $proxpass "http://lemmy";
}
if ($request_method = POST) {
set $proxpass "http://lemmy";
}
proxy_pass $proxpass;
rewrite ^(.+)/+$ $1 permanent;
# Send actual client IP upstream
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
# backend
location ~ ^/(api|pictrs|feeds|nodeinfo|.well-known) {
proxy_pass "http://lemmy";
# proxy common stuff
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
# Send actual client IP upstream
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
}
}
```
After this, have a look at the [config file](configuration.md) named `lemmy.hjson`, and adjust it, in particular the hostname, and possibly the db password. Then run:
`docker-compose up -d` `docker-compose up -d`
You can access the lemmy-ui at `http://localhost:80` You can access the lemmy-ui at `http://localhost:{{ lemmy_port }}`
To make Lemmy available outside the server, you need to set up a reverse proxy, like Nginx. You can use the following simple proxy: If you've set up Let's Encrypt and your reverse proxy, you can go to `https://{{ domain }}`
Note: If you are planning on running your reverse proxy on port 80, you'll need to update the docker-compose.yml file you just downloaded to change the internal proxy's listening port. If you are setting up Let's Encrypt on the same machine, you'll need to do this.
```
server {
listen 80;
server_name my_domain.tld;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:LEMMY_PORT;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
include proxy_params;
}
}
```
