To run Continuwuity with Docker, you can either build the image yourself or pull it from a registry.
OCI images for Continuwuity are available in the registries listed below.
| Registry | Image | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Forgejo Registry | forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity:latest | Latest tagged image. |
| Forgejo Registry | forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity:main | Main branch image. |
Use
docker image pull $LINKto pull it to your machine.
When you have the image, you can simply run it with
docker run -d -p 8448:6167 \
-v db:/var/lib/continuwuity/ \
-e CONTINUWUITY_SERVER_NAME="your.server.name" \
-e CONTINUWUITY_ALLOW_REGISTRATION=false \
--name continuwuity $LINKor you can use Docker Compose.
The -d flag lets the container run in detached mode. You may supply an
optional continuwuity.toml config file, the example config can be found
here. You can pass in different env vars to
change config values on the fly. You can even configure Continuwuity completely by
using env vars. For an overview of possible values, please take a look at the
docker-compose.yml file.
If you just want to test Continuwuity for a short time, you can use the --rm
flag, which cleans up everything related to your container after you stop
it.
If the docker run command is not suitable for you or your setup, you can also use one
of the provided docker-compose files.
Depending on your proxy setup, you can use one of the following files:

When picking the Traefik-related compose file, rename it to
docker-compose.yml, and rename the override file to
docker-compose.override.yml. Edit the latter with the values you want for your
server.
When picking the caddy-docker-proxy compose file, it's important to first
create the caddy network before spinning up the containers:
docker network create caddyAfter that, you can rename it to docker-compose.yml and spin up the
containers!
Additional info about deploying Continuwuity can be found here.
Official Continuwuity images are built using Docker Buildx and the Dockerfile found at docker/Dockerfile. This approach uses common Docker tooling and enables efficient multi-platform builds.
The resulting images are widely compatible with Docker and other container runtimes like Podman or containerd.
The images do not contain a shell. They contain only the Continuwuity binary, required libraries, TLS certificates, and metadata.
You can also view the Dockerfile on Forgejo.

To build an image locally using Docker Buildx, you can typically run a command like:
# Build for the current platform and load into the local Docker daemon
docker buildx build --load --tag continuwuity:latest -f docker/Dockerfile .
# Example: Build for specific platforms and push to a registry.
# docker buildx build --platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64 --tag registry.io/org/continuwuity:latest -f docker/Dockerfile . --push
# Example: Build binary optimized for the current CPU
# docker buildx build --load --tag continuwuity:latest --build-arg TARGET_CPU=native -f docker/Dockerfile .Refer to the Docker Buildx documentation for more advanced build options.
If you have already built the image or want to use one from the registries, you can start the container and everything else in the compose file in detached mode with:
docker compose up -dNote: Don't forget to modify and adjust the compose file to your needs.
As a container user, you probably know about Traefik. It is an easy-to-use
reverse proxy for making containerized apps and services available through the
web. With the Traefik-related docker-compose files provided above, it is equally easy
to deploy and use Continuwuity, with a small caveat. If you have already looked at
the files, you should have seen the well-known service, which is the
small caveat. Traefik is simply a proxy and load balancer and cannot
serve any kind of content. For Continuwuity to federate, we need to either
expose ports 443 and 8448 or serve two endpoints: .well-known/matrix/client
and .well-known/matrix/server.
With the service well-known, we use a single nginx container that serves
those two files.
Alternatively, you can use Continuwuity's built-in delegation file capability. Set up the delegation files in the configuration file, and then proxy paths under /.well-known/matrix to continuwuity. For example, the label traefik.http.routers.continuwuity.rule=(Host(`matrix.ellis.link`) || (Host(`ellis.link`) && PathPrefix(`/.well-known/matrix`))) does this for the domain ellis.link.
