.. tip::
If you intend to create a public instance using Docker, use our well
maintained searxng-docker_ image which includes
- :ref:`protection <searx filtron>` `[filtron]`_,
- a :ref:`result proxy <searx morty>` `[morty]`_ and
- a HTTPS reverse proxy `[caddy]`_.
Make sure you have `installed Docker <https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/>`_ and
on Linux, don't forget to add your user to the docker group (log out and log
back in so that your group membership is re-evaluated):
.. code:: sh
$ sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER
searxng/searxng
===============
.. sidebar:: ``docker run``
- `-\-rm <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#clean-up---rm>`__
automatically clean up when container exits
- `-d <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#detached--d>`__ start
detached container
- `-v <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#volume-shared-filesystems>`__
mount volume ``HOST:CONTAINER``
The docker image is based on :origin:`Dockerfile` and available from
`searxng/searxng @dockerhub`_. Using the docker image is quite easy, for
instance you can pull the `searxng/searxng @dockerhub`_ image and deploy a local
instance using `docker run <https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/>`_:
.. code:: sh
$ mkdir my-instance
$ cd my-instance
$ export PORT=8080
$ docker pull searxng/searxng
$ docker run --rm \
-d -p ${PORT}:8080 \
-v "${PWD}/searxng:/etc/searxng" \
-e "BASE_URL=http://localhost:$PORT/" \
-e "INSTANCE_NAME=my-instance" \
searxng/searxng
2f998.... # container's ID
Open your WEB browser and visit the URL:
.. code:: sh
$ xdg-open "http://localhost:$PORT"
Inside ``${PWD}/searxng``, you will find ``settings.yml`` and ``uwsgi.ini``. You
can modify these files according to your needs and restart the Docker image.
.. code:: sh
$ docker container restart 2f998
Use command ``container ls`` to list running containers, add flag `-a
<https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/container_ls>`__ to list
exited containers also. With ``container stop`` a running container can be
stoped. To get rid of a container use ``container rm``:
.. code:: sh
$ docker container ls
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED ...
2f998d725993 searxng/searxng "/sbin/tini -- /usr/…" 7 minutes ago ...
$ docker container stop 2f998
$ docker container rm 2f998
.. sidebar:: Warning
This might remove all docker items, not only those from SearXNG.
If you won't use docker anymore and want to get rid of all conatiners & images
use the following *prune* command:
.. code:: sh
$ docker stop $(docker ps -aq) # stop all containers
$ docker system prune # make some housekeeping
$ docker rmi -f $(docker images -q) # drop all images
shell inside container
----------------------
.. sidebar:: Bashism
- `A tale of two shells: bash or dash <https://lwn.net/Articles/343924/>`_
- `How to make bash scripts work in dash <http://mywiki.wooledge.org/Bashism>`_
- `Checking for Bashisms <https://dev.to/bowmanjd/writing-bash-scripts-that-are-not-only-bash-checking-for-bashisms-and-testing-with-dash-1bli>`_
Like in many other distributions, Alpine's `/bin/sh
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DashAsBinSh>`__ is :man:`dash`. Dash is meant to be
`POSIX-compliant <https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799>`__.
Compared to debian, in the Alpine image :man:`bash` is not installed. The
:origin:`dockerfiles/docker-entrypoint.sh` script is checked *against dash*
(``make tests.shell``).
To open a shell inside the container:
.. code:: sh
$ docker exec -it 2f998 sh
Build the image
===============
It's also possible to build SearXNG from the embedded :origin:`Dockerfile`::
$ git clone https://github.com/searxng/searxng.git
$ cd searxng
$ make docker.build
...

Command line
============
.. sidebar:: docker run
Use flags ``-it`` for `interactive processes
<https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#foreground>`__.
In the :origin:`Dockerfile` the ENTRYPOINT_ is defined as
:origin:`dockerfiles/docker-entrypoint.sh`
.. code:: sh
docker run --rm -it searxng/searxng -h
.. program-output:: ../dockerfiles/docker-entrypoint.sh -h
