Deployment

# docker-compose.yml
services:
  convertx: 
    image: ghcr.io/c4illin/convertx:main
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"
    environment: # Defaults are listed below
      - ACCOUNT_REGISTRATION=false # true or false, you can register the first account even though this is disabled
      - JWT_SECRET=aLongAndSecretStringUsedToSignTheJSONWebToken1234
      - HTTP_ALLOWED=false # setting this to true is unsafe, but as long as it locally and you trust your local network there is no problem
    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.
