Compose file

# Running `docker-compose up` will create/use the "trilium-data" directory next to this file
# To run in the background, use `docker-compose up -d`
services:
  trilium:
    # Optionally, replace `latest` with a version tag like `v0.90.3`
    # Using `latest` may cause unintended updates to the container
    image: triliumnext/trilium:latest
    # Restart the container unless it was stopped by the user
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      # By default, Trilium will be available at http://localhost:8080
      # It will also be accessible at http://<host-ip>:8080
      # You might want to limit this with something like Docker Networks, reverse proxies, or firewall rules,
      # however be aware that using UFW is known to not work with default Docker installations, see:
      # https://docs.docker.com/engine/network/packet-filtering-firewalls/#docker-and-ufw
      - '8080:8080'
    volumes:
      # Trilium stores its data in `trilium-data` next to this file. To use another directory
      # on the host, change the part before the colon only.
      - ./trilium-data:/home/node/trilium-data

Gotchas and maintenance

Gotchas

• Some images use the latest tag or no tag. Images without a pinned version: trilium: triliumnext/trilium:latest. A later pull can get a different version. (github.com/TriliumNext/Trilium/blob/1f26d8c/docker-compose.yml, checked 2026-10-22)
• The compose file publishes host ports. Host ports: 8080 (trilium). A port without a host address listens on all host network interfaces. (github.com/TriliumNext/Trilium/blob/1f26d8c/docker-compose.yml, checked 2026-10-22)
• The compose file mounts host folders. Host paths mounted into containers: ./trilium-data at /home/node/trilium-data (trilium), /etc/timezone at /etc/timezone (trilium), /etc/localtime at /etc/localtime (trilium). (github.com/TriliumNext/Trilium/blob/1f26d8c/docker-compose.yml, checked 2026-10-22)
