Docker usage

You can use a plug'n'play docker image, compatible Linux x86_64 and Linux ARM (like Raspberry Pis).

docker-compose.yml example:

services:
  pkvault:
    image: ghcr.io/chnapy/pkvault:latest # or specific version, like 1.5.1
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"
    volumes:
      - ./your-data:/pkvault

      # you must add in app settings save paths: /pkvault/saves/
      - ./your-saves:/pkvault/saves

Perfect for homelab context.

Or using basic docker run:

docker run \
  -p 3000:3000 \
  -v ./your-data:/pkvault \
  -v ./your-saves:/pkvault/saves \
  ghcr.io/chnapy/pkvault:latest
