🚀 Deployment Overview#

DMB can be deployed across a variety of platforms and environments. Whether you're using Docker, Portainer, Unraid, WSL2, or other systems like TrueNAS, Synology, or QNAP, this section will guide you through the available options to get DMB up and running.

All deployment methods provide access to the same integrated services and configurations, with slight differences in how the container is started and managed.

🔐 Additional Notes#

All methods rely on a valid and accessible dmb_config.json file for configuring services.
It is strongly recommended to bind-mount a local config directory to persist user data.

Example:

dmb:
  image: iampuid0/dmb:latest
  volumes:
    - ./config:/config

For more about configuring services, see the Configuration page.
