Docker

To deploy ParadeDB via Docker, simply pull and run the paradedb/paradedb image locally. This is the recommend deployment method for testing and development.

docker run \
  --name paradedb \
  -e POSTGRES_USER=myuser \
  -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mypassword \
  -e POSTGRES_DB=mydatabase \
  -v paradedb_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data/ \
  -p 5432:5432 \
  -d \
  paradedb/paradedb:latest

You may replace myuser, mypassword, and mydatabase with whatever values you want. These will be your database connection credentials.

To connect to ParadeDB, install the psql client and run

docker exec -it paradedb psql -U myuser -d mydatabase -W

That’s it! To get started, we suggest you follow the quickstart guide.
