Docker Deployment

Docker Compose Deployment

Recommended Scale: 0-1000 users

Advantages	Disadvantages
Simple deployment	Single-machine deployment, complex scaling
Full control
Flexible configuration

Server Requirements Ensure your server meets these basic requirements:

Operating System: Recommended Linux distribution, such as Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Memory: Minimum 4GB RAM
CPU: At least 2 cores
Disk Space: Minimum 40GB available space
Network: Stable internet connection with necessary port access

Prerequisites

Before starting, ensure you have:

Basic understanding of Docker and containerization principles
Docker and Docker Compose installed on your machine. Visit the official Docker documentation for installation guides.

Installing Docker

# Download the latest version of Docker
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | bash -s docker

# Verify the installation
docker --version
docker-compose --version

Installing the Application

Create docker-compose.yaml File

Access your server, create and enter the teable folder:

mkdir teable

cd teable

Create a docker-compose.yaml and a .env file, then paste the following content:

vim docker-compose.yaml

Minimal Deployment:

docker-compose.yaml

services:
  teable:
    image: ghcr.io/teableio/teable:latest
    restart: always
    ports:
      - '3000:3000'
    volumes:
      - teable-data:/app/.assets:rw
    env_file:
      - .env
    environment:
      - NEXT_ENV_IMAGES_ALL_REMOTE=true
    networks:
      - teable
    depends_on:
      teable-db:
        condition: service_healthy
      teable-cache:
        condition: service_healthy
    healthcheck:
      test: ['CMD', 'curl', '-f', 'http://localhost:3000/health']
      start_period: 5s
      interval: 5s
      timeout: 3s
      retries: 3

  teable-db:
    image: postgres:15.4
    restart: always
    ports:
      - '42345:5432'
    volumes:
      - teable-db:/var/lib/postgresql/data:rw
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_DB=${POSTGRES_DB}
      - POSTGRES_USER=${POSTGRES_USER}
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
    networks:
      - teable
    healthcheck:
      test: ['CMD-SHELL', "sh -c 'pg_isready -U ${POSTGRES_USER} -d ${POSTGRES_DB}'"]
      interval: 10s
      timeout: 3s
      retries: 3

  teable-cache:
    image: redis:7.2.4
    restart: always
    expose:
      - '6379'
    volumes:
      - teable-cache:/data:rw
    networks:
      - teable
    command: redis-server --appendonly yes --requirepass ${REDIS_PASSWORD}
    healthcheck:
      test: ['CMD', 'redis-cli', '--raw', 'incr', 'ping']
      interval: 10s
      timeout: 3s
      retries: 3

networks:
  teable:
    name: teable-network

volumes:
  teable-db: {}
  teable-data: {}
  teable-cache: {}

.env

# Replace the default password below with a strong password (ASCII) of at least 8 characters.
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=replace_this_password

Adding Storage Service (Optional)

Teable uses local storage to manage attachment resources by default. You can add MinIO or cloud storage for more powerful and stable service.

MinIO provides an additional storage management interface (port 9001) and more powerful, stable file service.

docker-compose.yaml

services:
  # ...previous content
  teable-storage:
    image: minio/minio:RELEASE.2024-02-17T01-15-57Z
    ports:
      - "9000:9000"
      - "9001:9001"
    environment:
      - MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=${MINIO_ACCESS_KEY}
      - MINIO_SECRET_KEY=${MINIO_SECRET_KEY}
    volumes:
      - teable-storage:/data:rw
    networks:
      - teable
    command: server /data --console-address ":9001"
  createbuckets:
    image: minio/mc
    networks:
      - teable
    entrypoint: >
      /bin/sh -c "
      /usr/bin/mc alias set teable-storage http://teable-storage:9000 ${MINIO_ACCESS_KEY} ${MINIO_SECRET_KEY};
      /usr/bin/mc mb teable-storage/public;
      /usr/bin/mc anonymous set public teable-storage/public;
      /usr/bin/mc mb teable-storage/private;
      exit 0;
      "
    depends_on:
      teable-storage:
        condition: service_started

networks:
  teable:
    name: teable-network

volumes:
  teable-db: {}
  teable-cache: {}
  # Add a new volume
  teable-storage: {}

.env

# Replace the default passwords below with strong passwords (ASCII) of at least 8 characters.
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=replace_this_password
REDIS_PASSWORD=replace_this_password
SECRET_KEY=replace_this_secret_key

# If you enable HTTPS, set PROTOCOL to https.
PROTOCOL=http
# Set PUBLIC_HOST to the IP or domain name of your deployment. Cannot use localhost or 127.0.0.1.
PUBLIC_HOST=192.168.x.x
# Modify the final port to match your access port, or remove :port if using standard ports (80/443).
PUBLIC_ORIGIN=${PROTOCOL}://${PUBLIC_HOST}:3000

Start the Application

Run the following commands in the current directory to start the application. Once started, you can access the application at 127.0.0.1:3000

HTTPS environment is required for large-scale data copying operations, otherwise asynchronous clipboard access will not be possible

docker-compose pull

docker-compose up -d

Using Managed Databases (Optional)

If you prefer to use managed databases, you can further simplify the deployment process:

Remove services.teable-db
Remove volumes.teable-db
Update .env with your managed database configuration

Fill in the database parameters with your managed database connection parameters:

.env

POSTGRES_HOST=your-database.com
POSTGRES_PORT=5432
POSTGRES_DB=teable
POSTGRES_USER=teable

Note that 127.0.0.1 is the container’s internal network. If you want to connect to a locally deployed database, use host.docker.internal instead of 127.0.0.1 as the host address, otherwise the connection will fail

Similarly for external managed Redis:

Remove service.teable-cache
Remove service.teable.depends_on.teable-cache
Remove volumes.teable-cache
Update .env with your managed Redis configuration

Next Steps

Configure Email Service Configure External Database Connection

Common Issues

Why can't I import CSV/xlsx or upload images after installation

File import issues are typically due to incorrect configuration of the PUBLIC_ORIGIN environment variable. You need to set PUBLIC_ORIGIN to the currently accessible address:

# For local development
PUBLIC_ORIGIN=http://127.0.0.1:3000

# For local network access
PUBLIC_ORIGIN=http://192.168.1.100:3000

# For domain name access
PUBLIC_ORIGIN=https://teable.example.com

After changing this configuration, you’ll need to restart your Teable instance for the changes to take effect.

How to enable HTTPS

Enabling HTTPS requires the following steps: Obtain a valid SSL certificate Set PROTOCOL=https in your configuration file If using MinIO, remember to set BACKEND_STORAGE_MINIO_USE_SSL to true

It’s recommended to use a reverse proxy (like Nginx or Traefik) to handle SSL termination.
