Description

Custom pocketbase docker image.

The Dockerfile to build this image can be located at http://github.com/svicknesh/pocketbase-docker⁠

Overview

Pocketbase⁠ is an open source backend consisting of embedded database (SQLite) with realtime subscriptions, built-in auth management, convenient dashboard UI and simple REST-ish API.

This docker image follows the release of the official pocketbase binary. This container is expected to be behind a reverse proxy with TLS, hence this docker only exposes the HTTP port.

Below is an example docker-compose.yaml for starting this docker image locally

services:
  pocketbase:
    image: vicknesh/pocketbase:latest
    container_name: pocketbase
    restart: unless-stopped
