Running from Docker

Alternatively, you can run it with Docker. There are 2 make targets available to do this.

• Ensure that Docker is running. This usually means that you need to start up Docker Desktop.
• cd to the project's root directory
• make build-docker to build the docker container. This may take a minute.
• make run-docker to start up the strapiv4 server.

Note: You do not need to do the build and run steps every time you make a change.

Once the docker container is running, the strapi server will auto-reload with your changes without having to restart the container.

Also, if the container goes down for some reason, you do not need to rebuild it again. Run make run-docker and it will start up again.
