Deploy using Docker

To get started we recommend using the Docker Compose file from the Golem Docker examples (opens in a new tab). You will need to have Docker (opens in a new tab) and Docker Compose (opens in a new tab) installed on your system.

Once you have Docker Compose installed, you can make use of docker-compose file in Golem repository to spin up Golem.

Terminal

# Download an example docker-compose file along with .env file that has a few common configurations
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/golemcloud/golem/main/docker-examples/docker-compose-postgres.yaml -O  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/golemcloud/golem/main/docker-examples/.env
 
# Start Golem with backend storage as PostgreSQL and Redis
docker-compose -f docker-compose-postgres.yaml up

You may need to modify it to suit your needs. If you are running into any port conflicts you can modify the .env (opens in a new tab) file that was downloaded as part of the above curl command. Golem APIs are exposed on port 9881 by default. Worker API Gateway endpoint is exposed under port 9006.
