# Full docker example
This docker compose configuration will run Vikunja with backend and frontend with a mariadb database.
It uses an nginx container or traefik on the host to proxy backend and frontend into a single port.
This docker compose configuration will run Vikunja with a mariadb database.
It uses a proxy configuration to make it available under a domain.
For all available configuration options, see [configuration]({{< ref "config.md">}}).
Once deployed, you might want to change the [`PUID` and `GUID` settings]({{< ref "install.md">}}#setting-user-and-group-id-of-the-user-running-vikunja) or [set the time zone]({{< ref "config.md">}}#timezone).
After registering all your users, you might also want to [disable the user registration]({{<ref "config.md">}}#enableregistration).

## Redis
While Vikunja has support to use redis as a caching backend, you'll probably not need it unless you're using Vikunja with more than a handful of users.

## Example without any proxy
This example lets you host Vikunja without any reverse proxy in front of it. This is the absolute minimum configuration you need to get something up and running. If you want to host Vikunja on one single port instead of two different ones or need tls termination, check out one of the other examples.

Note that you need to change the `VIKUNJA_API_URL` environment variable to the ip (the docker host you're running this on) is reachable at. Because the browser you'll use to access the Vikunja frontend uses that url to make the requests, it has to be able to reach that ip + port from the outside. Putting everything in a private network won't work.

This example assumes [traefik](https://traefik.io) version 2 installed and configured to [use docker as a configuration provider](https://docs.traefik.io/providers/docker/).
We also make a few assumptions here which you'll most likely need to adjust for your traefik setup:

* The entrypoint you want to make vikunja available from is called `https`
* The tls cert resolver is called `acme`

## Setup on a Synology NAS
There is a proxy preinstalled in DSM, so if you want to access vikunja from outside,
you can prepare 2 proxy rules:
* a redirection rule for vikunja's api (see example screenshot using port 3456)
* a similar redirection rule for vikunja's frontend (using port 4321)
