Building the Image Locally

To build the image yourself, copy the Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml to your project directory. Update docker-compose.yml to build the image instead of pulling it:

version: "3.7"
services:
  pocketbase:
    build:
      context: .
      args:
        - VERSION=0.22.10 # Specify the PocketBase version here
    container_name: pocketbase
    restart: unless-stopped
    command:
      - --encryptionEnv # optional
      - ENCRYPTION # optional
    environment:
      ENCRYPTION: example # optional
    ports:
      - "8090:8090"
    volumes:
      - /path/to/data:/pb_data
      - /path/to/public:/pb_public # optional
      - /path/to/hooks:/pb_hooks # optional
    healthcheck: # optional, recommended since v0.10.0
      test: wget --no-verbose --tries=1 --spider http://localhost:8090/api/health || exit 1
      interval: 5s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 5
