Run this to start a basic Danbooru instance:
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/danbooru/danbooru/master/bin/danbooru | shThis will install Docker Compose and use it to start Danbooru. When it's done, Danbooru will be running at http://localhost:3000.
Alternatively, if you already have Docker Compose installed, you can just do:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/danbooru/danbooru/master/docker-compose.yaml
docker compose upYou will likely need to run docker with elevated permissions.
If you get an error such as 'name' does not match any of the regexes: '^x-' make sure
that you're running an updated version of Docker Compose.
See the Docker Guide for more information on running Danbooru using Docker. This is the recommended way to run Danbooru.
Alternatively, you may use the Manual Installation Guide to install Danbooru without Docker. Manual installation is much more difficult than using Docker, and therefore is not recommended or officially supported.
For help, ask in the #technical channel on the Danbooru Discord, or in the discussions area on Github.
