  1. Install via Docker (Recommended if you just want to try it out quickly for dev/test environments) - This is the easiest/quickest way to get everything running locally (no matter your technical skills).  We even have a script to automatically load some test data and test accounts into your Docker instance.
  2. Install the User Interface only, while using the demo REST API backend - This is the easiest way to try out just the User Interface locally.  Keep in mind, by default, the User Interface will be installed to use our DSpace 7 REST API Demo as a backend.  Therefore, you will be interacting with the content on that demo site and will need to use the login information for the demo site (see above)
  3. Install both the User Interface and REST API locally (Required for Production).  This is a fully local installation. The UI and REST API need not be installed on the same server.

The Docker resources/images provided by the DSpace community are built for development/testing only.  Therefore, they may not be fully secured or up-to-date, and should not be used in production.
If you wish to run DSpace on Docker in production, we recommend building your own Docker images. You are welcome to borrow ideas/concepts from images provided by the DSpace community. But, they should not be used "as is" in any production scenario.
Warning
titleDSpace's provided images are not production ready
Info
titleDetailed Docker Compose documentation available in the codebase

The below instructions provide a quick way to start up both the User Interface and REST API in a Docker environment.  However, if you are already familiar with Docker or plan to use it more heavily, you may wish to also review our detailed Docker Compose instructions for both the frontend (User Interface) and backend (REST API).
