Common questions

Which Docker image tag should I use for a stable production deployment?

Use sismics/docs:v1.11 as the latest stable version. The sismics/docs:latest image tracks the master branch and can be unstable.

Can I run the Docker container without configuring PostgreSQL?

If no PostgreSQL config is provided, Teedy uses an embedded H2 database. H2 is only suitable for testing, so production should use PostgreSQL.

What should I set so URLs work when the app is behind a reverse proxy?

Set the DOCS_BASE_URL environment variable to the public base URL. The preconfigured Docker image listens on port 8080.

Which file types can Teedy store or import?

Supported files include image, PDF, ODT, DOCX, and PPTX files, plus video file support.
