# How to use Dockerized Anything LLM
|
|
|
|
Use the Dockerized version of AnythingLLM for a much faster and complete startup of AnythingLLM.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
- Install [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) on your computer or machine.
|
|
|
|
## How to install
|
|
- `git clone` this repo and `cd anything-llm` to get to the root directory.
|
|
- `cd docker/`
|
|
- `cp .env.example .env` to create the `.env` file.
|
|
- Edit `.env` file and update the variables
|
|
- `docker-compose up -d --build` to build the image - this will take a few moments.
|
|
|
|
Your docker host will show the image as online once the build process is completed. This will build the app to `http://localhost:3001`.
|
|
|
|
## How to use the user interface
|
|
- To access the full application, visit `http://localhost:3001` in your browser.
|
|
|
|
## How to add files to my system
|
|
- Upload files from the UI in your Workspace settings
|
|
|
|
- To run the collector scripts to grab external data (articles, URLs, etc.)
|
|
- `docker exec -it --workdir=/app/collector anything-llm python main.py`
|
|
|
|
- To run the collector watch script to process files from the hotdir
|
|
- `docker exec -it --workdir=/app/collector anything-llm python watch.py`
|
|
- Upload [compliant files](../collector/hotdir/__HOTDIR__.md) to `./collector/hotdir` and they will be processed and made available in the UI.
|
|
|
|
## How to update and rebuild the ENV?
|
|
- Update the `./docker/.env` and run `docker-compose up -d --build` to rebuild with new environments.
|
|
|
|
## About UID and GID in the ENV
|
|
- The UID and GID are set to 1000 by default. This is the default user in the Docker container and on most host operating systems. If there is a mismatch between your host user UID and GID and what is set in the `.env` file, you may experience permission issues.
|
|
|
|
## ⚠️ Vector DB support ⚠️
|
|
Out of the box, all vector databases are supported. Any vector databases requiring special configuration are listed below.
|
|
|
|
### Using local ChromaDB with Dockerized AnythingLLM
|
|
- Ensure in your `./docker/.env` file that you have
|
|
```
|
|
#./docker/.env
|
|
...other configs
|
|
|
|
VECTOR_DB="chroma"
|
|
CHROMA_ENDPOINT='http://host.docker.internal:8000' # Allow docker to look on host port, not container.
|
|
|
|
...other configs
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Common questions and fixes
|
|
|
|
### API is not working, cannot login, LLM is "offline"?
|
|
You are likely running the docker container on a remote machine like EC2 or some other instance where the reachable URL
|
|
is not `http://localhost:3001` and instead is something like `http://193.xx.xx.xx:3001` - in this case all you need to do is add the following to your `frontend/.env.production` before running `docker-compose up -d --build`
|
|
```
|
|
# frontend/.env.production
|
|
GENERATE_SOURCEMAP=false
|
|
VITE_API_BASE="http://<YOUR_REACHABLE_IP_ADDRESS>:3001/api"
|
|
```
|
|
For example, if the docker instance is available on `192.186.1.222` your `VITE_API_BASE` would look like `VITE_API_BASE="http://192.186.1.222:3001/api"` in `frontend/.env.production`.
