Run with Docker Compose

Docker compose is not intended for production use. If you want to deploy a containerized DefectDojo to a production environment, use the Helm and Kubernetes approach.

Setup via Docker Compose

If you start your DefectDojo instance on Docker Compose for the first time, just run docker-compose up.

Navigate to http://localhost:8080 where you can log in with username admin. To find out the admin user’s password, check the very beginning of the console output of the initializer container, typically name 'django-defectdojo_initializer_1', or run the following:

container_id=(`docker ps -a \
--filter "name=django-defectdojo_initializer_1" \
| awk 'FNR == 2 {print $1}'`) && \
docker logs $container_id 2>&1 | grep "Admin password:"

If you ran DefectDojo with compose before and you want to prevent the initializer container from running again, define an environment variable DD_INITIALIZE=false to prevent re-initialization.

Build Images Locally

Build the docker containers locally for testing purposes.

# Build images
docker build -t defectdojo/defectdojo-django -f Dockerfile.django .
docker build -t defectdojo/defectdojo-nginx -f Dockerfile.nginx .

Clean up Docker Compose

docker-compose down --volumes
