Dockge

A fancy, easy-to-use and reactive docker compose.yaml stack manager.

Dockge is built on top of Compose V2. compose.yaml is as known as docker-compose.yml.

⭐ Features

• Focus on compose.yaml stack management
• Interactive editor for compose.yaml
• Interactive web terminal for containers and docker commands
• Reactive
  • Everything is just responsive. Progress and terminal output are in real-time
• Easy-to-use & fancy UI
  • If you love Uptime Kuma's UI/UX, you will love this too
• Convert docker run ... command into compose.yaml file

🔧 How to Install

1. Create a directory ./dockge/
2. Create a compose.yaml file inside ./dockge with the following content:

version: "3.8"
services:
  dockge:
    image: louislam/dockge:nightly
    ports:
      - 5001:5001
    volumes:
      - ./data:/app/data
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock

2. cd ./dockge/
3. docker-compose up -d

Dockge is now running on http://localhost:5001

Motivations

• I have been using Portainer for some time, but for the stack management, I am sometimes not satisfied with it. For example, sometimes when I try to deploy a stack, the loading icon keeps spinning for a few minutes without progress. And sometimes error messages are not clear.
• Try to develop with ES Module + TypeScript (Originally, I planned to use Deno or Bun.js, but they do not support for arm64, so I stepped back to Node.js)

If you love this project, please consider giving this project a ⭐.
