This is a set of Docker Compose files that allow you to quickly spin up a Graylog instance for testing or demo purposes.

• Docker
• Docker-Compose

All the Graylog configurations can be set via environment variables. Just prefix the parameter name with GRAYLOG_ and put it in upper case.

There is an environment file (.env.example) where you can store these environment variables. Rename this to .env so docker-compose will pick it up.

  cp .env.example .env

Important: Be sure to to set the GRAYLOG_PASSWORD_SECRET and GRAYLOG_ROOT_PASSWORD_SHA2 environment variables in the .env file! Graylog won't start without these.

After you've configured GRAYLOG_PASSWORD_SECRET and GRAYLOG_ROOT_PASSWORD_SHA2, run these commands to start the instance:

docker-compose up

To start it daemonized, run:

docker-compose up -d

It's as simple as that!
