# Docker
The official Docker image is available on https://hub.docker.com/r/etherpad/etherpad.
## Downloading from Docker Hub
If you are ok downloading a [prebuilt image from Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/etherpad/etherpad), these are the commands:
```bash
# gets the latest published version
docker pull etherpad/etherpad
# gets a specific version
docker pull etherpad/etherpad:1.8.0
```
## Build a personalized container
If you want to use a personalized settings file, **you will have to rebuild your image**.
All of the following instructions are as a member of the `docker` group.
By default, the Etherpad Docker image is built and run in `production` mode: no development dependencies are installed, and asset bundling speeds up page load time.
### Rebuilding with custom settings
Edit `<BASEDIR>/settings.json.docker` at your will. When rebuilding the image, this file will be copied inside your image and renamed to `settings.json`.
**Each configuration parameter can also be set via an environment variable**, using the syntax `"${ENV_VAR}"` or `"${ENV_VAR:default_value}"`. For details, refer to `settings.json.template`.
### Rebuilding including some plugins
If you want to install some plugins in your container, it is sufficient to list them in the ETHERPAD_PLUGINS build variable.
The variable value has to be a space separated, double quoted list of plugin names (see examples).
Some plugins will need personalized settings. Just refer to the previous section, and include them in your custom `settings.json.docker`.
### Rebuilding including export functionality for DOC/PDF/ODT
If you want to be able to export your pads to DOC/PDF/ODT files, you can install
either Abiword or Libreoffice via setting a build variable.
#### Via Abiword
For installing Abiword, set the `INSTALL_ABIWORD` build variable to any value.
Also, you will need to configure the path to the abiword executable
via setting the `abiword` property in `<BASEDIR>/settings.json.docker` to
`/usr/bin/abiword` or via setting the environment variable `ABIWORD` to
`/usr/bin/abiword`.
#### Via Libreoffice
For installing Libreoffice instead, set the `INSTALL_SOFFICE` build variable
to any value.
Also, you will need to configure the path to the libreoffice executable
via setting the `soffice` property in `<BASEDIR>/settings.json.docker` to
`/usr/bin/soffice` or via setting the environment variable `SOFFICE` to
`/usr/bin/soffice`.
### Examples
Build a Docker image from the currently checked-out code:
```bash
docker build --tag <YOUR_USERNAME>/etherpad .
```
Include two plugins in the container:
```bash
docker build --build-arg ETHERPAD_PLUGINS="ep_comments_page ep_author_neat" --tag <YOUR_USERNAME>/etherpad .
```
## Running your instance:
To run your instance:
```bash
docker run --detach --publish <DESIRED_PORT>:9001 <YOUR_USERNAME>/etherpad
```
And point your browser to `http://<YOUR_IP>:<DESIRED_PORT>`
## Options available by default
The `settings.json.docker` available by default allows to control almost every setting via environment variables.

### Skins
You can use the UI skin variants builder at `/p/test#skinvariantsbuilder`
For the colibris skin only, you can choose how to render the three main containers:
* toolbar (top menu with icons)
* editor (containing the text of the pad)
* background (area outside of editor, mostly visible when using page style)
For each of the 3 containers you can choose 4 color combinations:
* super-light
* light
* dark
* super-dark
For the editor container, you can also make it full width by adding `full-width-editor` variant (by default editor is rendered as a page, with a max-width of 900px).

| `DISABLE_IP_LOGGING` | Privacy: disable IP logging | `false` |
### Advanced
| Variable | Description | Default |

| `SHOW_SETTINGS_IN_ADMIN_PAGE` | hide/show the settings.json in admin page | `true` |
| `TRUST_PROXY` | set to `true` if you are using a reverse proxy in front of Etherpad (for example: Traefik for SSL termination via Let's Encrypt). This will affect security and correctness of the logs if not done | `false` |
| `IMPORT_MAX_FILE_SIZE` | maximum allowed file size when importing a pad, in bytes. | `52428800` (50 MB) |
| `IMPORT_EXPORT_MAX_REQ_PER_IP` | maximum number of import/export calls per IP. | `10` |
| `IMPORT_EXPORT_RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW` | the call rate for import/export requests will be estimated in this time window (in milliseconds) | `90000` |
| `COMMIT_RATE_LIMIT_DURATION` | duration of the rate limit window for commits by individual users/IPs (in seconds) | `1` |
| `COMMIT_RATE_LIMIT_POINTS` | maximum number of changes per IP to allow during the rate limit window | `10` |
| `SUPPRESS_ERRORS_IN_PAD_TEXT` | Should we suppress errors from being visible in the default Pad Text? | `false` |
| `REQUIRE_SESSION` | If this option is enabled, a user must have a session to access pads. This effectively allows only group pads to be accessed. | `false` |

| `SOFFICE` | This is the absolute path to the soffice executable. LibreOffice can be used in lieu of Abiword to export pads. Setting it to null disables LibreOffice exporting. | `null` |
| `TIDY_HTML` | Path to the Tidy executable. Tidy is used to improve the quality of exported pads. Setting it to null disables Tidy. | `null` |

### Examples
Use a Postgres database, no admin user enabled:

docker run -d \
--name etherpad \
-p 9001:9001 \
-e 'DB_TYPE=postgres' \
-e 'DB_HOST=db.local' \
-e 'DB_PORT=4321' \

Run enabling the administrative user `admin`:
```shell
docker run -d \
--name etherpad \
-p 9001:9001 \
-e 'ADMIN_PASSWORD=supersecret' \
etherpad/etherpad
```
Run a test instance running DirtyDB on a persistent volume:
```
docker run -d \
-v etherpad_data:/opt/etherpad-lite/var \
-p 9001:9001 \
etherpad/etherpad
```
