cd example-standard/

install -d -o1000 -g1000 data home
# Initialize the SFTPGo database. This creates the sftpgo.db file
docker-compose run --rm -v "$PWD/initial-data.json:/initial-data.json:ro" sftpgo sftpgo initprovider --loaddata-from=/initial-data.json

docker-compose down && docker-compose up

Then you can access your SFTPGo instance:

• Via web browser: http://127.0.0.1:8080/
• Via SFTP: sftp -P2022 alice@127.0.0.1

example-portable

This example runs SFTPGo in portable mode (sftpgo portable command).

cd example-portable/

install -d -o1000 -g1000 home serve

docker-compose down && docker-compose up

Then you can access your SFTPGo instance via SFTP only:

sftp -P2022 user@127.0.0.1

Note: if you want it to be accessible only via web browser instead, you can set the --sftpd-port=-1 and --httpd-port=8080 flags.
