# Install: Docker
Single-container Docker run — suitable for testing or simple personal installs.
## Run Command
```bash
docker run -d \
--name trek \
-p 3000:3000 \
-v ./data:/app/data \
-v ./uploads:/app/uploads \
-e ENCRYPTION_KEY=<your-32-byte-hex-key> \
--restart unless-stopped \
mauriceboe/trek:latest
```
`ENCRYPTION_KEY` is strongly recommended but not strictly required. If omitted, a key is auto-generated on first start and persisted to `data/.encryption_key`. Setting it explicitly means you can recreate the container from scratch (e.g. on a new host) without losing access to stored encrypted data (API keys, SMTP credentials, OIDC secrets, MFA secrets).
Generate an encryption key with:
```bash
openssl rand -hex 32
```
### Common optional variables
Pass additional `-e` flags for timezone and CORS/email link support:
```bash
-e TZ=Europe/Berlin \
-e ALLOWED_ORIGINS=https://trek.example.com \
```
See [Environment-Variables](Environment-Variables) for the full list.
## Image Tags
| Tag | Example | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| `latest` | `mauriceboe/trek:latest` | Always the newest release across all major versions |
| Major version | `mauriceboe/trek:3` | Latest release pinned to that major version |
| Full version | `mauriceboe/trek:3.0.15` | Exact release; never changes |
Replace `mauriceboe/trek:latest` in the run command with your chosen tag to pin to a major version or exact release.
## Volume Reference
| Volume | Container path | What lives there |
|---|---|---|
| `./data` | `/app/data` | `travel.db` (SQLite database), `logs/trek.log`, `.jwt_secret`, `.encryption_key` |
| `./uploads` | `/app/uploads` | Uploaded files (photos, documents, covers, avatars) |
Both volumes must survive container replacement — they are your persistent state. Never remove them before pulling a new image.
### Named Volumes
The run command above uses bind mounts (`./data`, `./uploads`). You can use Docker named volumes instead, which are fully managed by Docker and not tied to a host path:
```bash
docker run -d \
--name trek \
-p 3000:3000 \
-v trek_data:/app/data \
-v trek_uploads:/app/uploads \
-e ENCRYPTION_KEY=<your-32-byte-hex-key> \
--restart unless-stopped \
mauriceboe/trek:latest
```
Docker creates `trek_data` and `trek_uploads` automatically on first run. Named volumes are easier to manage with `docker volume` commands and work better in some NAS or container-management environments.
## Health Check
The container exposes a health endpoint at:
```
http://localhost:3000/api/health
```
Docker polls it automatically (interval: 30 s, timeout: 5 s, retries: 3, start period: 15 s). You can check it manually:
```bash
curl -s http://localhost:3000/api/health
```
## Verify the Container Is Running
```bash
docker ps --filter name=trek
docker logs trek
```
## Limitations of `docker run`
A bare `docker run` command has no built-in secret management and is harder to reproduce after a system reboot. For production, see [Install-Docker-Compose](Install-Docker-Compose), which adds security hardening (`read_only`, `cap_drop`, `cap_add`, `no-new-privileges`, `tmpfs`) and makes it easy to manage environment variables through a `.env` file.
