Deployment

# docker-compose.yml
services:
  convertx: 
    image: ghcr.io/c4illin/convertx:main
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"
    environment: # Defaults are listed below. All are optional.
      - ACCOUNT_REGISTRATION=false # true or false, doesn't matter for the first account (e.g. keep this to false if you only want one account)
      - JWT_SECRET=aLongAndSecretStringUsedToSignTheJSONWebToken1234 # will use randomUUID() by default
      - HTTP_ALLOWED=false # setting this to true is unsafe, only set this to true locally
    volumes:
      - convertx:/app/data

Then visit http://localhost:3000 in your browser and create your account. Don't leave it unconfigured and open, as anyone can register the first account.

If you get unable to open database file run chown -R $USER:$USER path on the path you choose.
