how to configure another port number

[dreamfly999]

Thank you for your work. It's really great. At present, I have deployed this website to my local server, but I want to configure another port number, how to do it?

Hey @dreamfly999,

In the docker-compose configuration file (docker-compose.yml), the nginx port configuration is defined as follows:

(...)
nginx:
        image: nginx:alpine
        ports:
            - "${APP_PORT:-80}:80"
(...)

${APP_PORT:-80}:80 means that the host port which is defined by the environment variable APP_PORT is mapped to the port 80 in the container. If APP_PORT is not set, 80 is used as a default option (that's what {APP_PORT:-80} means).

There are multiple ways to set the port (in this example, we set it to 8080): 1) Set the environment variable directly: APP_PORT=8080 docker-compose up --build -d. 2) Set the environment variable in the .env file: Just add a line that states APP_PORT=8080. 3) Directly define the port in docker-compose.yml: Replace - "${APP_PORT:-80}:80" with - "8080:80".

I hope this helps! Have a nice day! Otto

Edit: For future reference, I have added these instructions to the Wiki.
