Deploy Sourcebot

Sourcebot can be deployed in seconds using our official docker image. Visit our docs for more information.

  1. Create a config
touch config.json
echo '{
    "$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot/main/schemas/v3/index.json",
    "connections": {
        // Comments are supported
        "starter-connection": {
            "type": "github",
            "repos": [
                "sourcebot-dev/sourcebot"
            ]
        }
    }
}' > config.json
  1. Run the docker container
docker run 
  -p 3000:3000 
  --pull=always 
  --rm 
  -v $(pwd):/data 
  -e CONFIG_PATH=/data/config.json 
  --name sourcebot 
  ghcr.io/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot:latest
What does this command do?
  • Pull and run the Sourcebot docker image from ghcr.io/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot:latest.
  • Mount the current directory (-v $(pwd):/data) to allow Sourcebot to persist the .sourcebot cache.
  • Clones sourcebot at HEAD into .sourcebot/github/sourcebot-dev/sourcebot.
  • Indexes sourcebot into a .zoekt index file in .sourcebot/index/.
  • Map port 3000 between your machine and the docker image.
  • Starts the web server on port 3000.

  1. Start searching at http://localhost:3000
