For more information, see the Couchbase Mobile Overview.

⁠Quickstart

You first need to create a common docker network:

docker network create --driver bridge couchbase

Next, setup and install Couchbase server locally:

docker run --net=couchbase -d --name couchbase-server -p 8091-8094:8091-8094 -p 11210:11210 couchbase

Once it's done, go to localhost:8091⁠ and go through the process of setting up the server. Make sure you check the box to set the sample database beer-sample.

Now, to install couchbase sync-gateway:

docker run --net=couchbase  --name couchbase-sync-gateway -p 4984:4984 doronkatz/couchbase-sync-gateway /tmp/my-sg-config.json

This will run the my-sg-config.json file located in the image's /tmp/ folder. You should be seeing in your console, that it's connecting to the couchbase server instance.
