# Docker Compose Guide This repository ships an environment-variable driven Docker Compose setup. ## Quick Start ### Pull pre-built image (Recommended) ```bash WEBUI_IMAGE=ekkoye8888/hermes-web-ui:latest docker compose up -d hermes-agent hermes-webui docker compose logs -f hermes-webui ``` Open: `http://localhost:6060` ### Build from source ```bash docker compose up -d --build hermes-agent hermes-webui docker compose logs -f hermes-webui ``` ## Services This compose file runs two services: - `hermes-agent` — Hermes Agent runtime (image: `nousresearch/hermes-agent`) - `hermes-webui` — Web UI dashboard (pre-built image or built from source) ## Environment Variables All key runtime settings are configured from compose variables. | Variable | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `PORT` | `6060` | Web UI listen port | | `UPSTREAM` | `http://hermes-agent:8642` | Hermes gateway URL (container internal) | | `HERMES_BIN` | `/opt/hermes/.venv/bin/hermes` | Path to Hermes CLI binary | | `HERMES_AGENT_IMAGE` | `nousresearch/hermes-agent:latest` | Hermes Agent base image | | `WEBUI_IMAGE` | `hermes-web-ui-local:latest` | Web UI image (set to `ekkoye8888/hermes-web-ui:latest` to use pre-built) | | `HERMES_DATA_DIR` | `./hermes_data` | Hermes runtime data directory | | `AUTH_DISABLED` | `false` | Set to `true` to disable login authentication | Override variables directly from shell: ```bash PORT=16060 \ AUTH_DISABLED=true \ docker compose up -d hermes-agent hermes-webui ``` Or create a `.env` file in the project root: ``` WEBUI_IMAGE=ekkoye8888/hermes-web-ui:latest PORT=6060 AUTH_DISABLED=false ``` ## Data Persistence | Path | Description | |---|---| | `${HERMES_DATA_DIR}` (`./hermes_data`) | Hermes runtime data (sessions, config, profiles) | | `${HERMES_DATA_DIR}/hermes-web-ui` | Web UI data (auth token, etc.) | - Hermes data persists in `./hermes_data`, mapped to `/home/agent/.hermes` in the container. - Web UI data persists in `./hermes_data/hermes-web-ui/`, mapped to `/root/.hermes-web-ui` in the container. - When `AUTH_DISABLED=false`, the auth token is auto-generated on first run and printed to container logs. - Deleting the token file and restarting will generate a new one. ## Port Mapping | Port | Service | Description | |---|---|---| | `${PORT}` (6060) | hermes-webui | Web UI dashboard | | 8642-8670 | hermes-agent | Hermes Agent gateway ports (for multi-profile) | ## Code Runtime Behavior - Server upstream comes from `UPSTREAM` env (`packages/server/src/config.ts`). - Hermes CLI binary comes from `HERMES_BIN` env (`packages/server/src/services/hermes-cli.ts`). - If `HERMES_BIN` is not provided, code falls back to `hermes` in `PATH`. - Profile switching dynamically resolves upstream URLs via `GatewayManager` — the `UPSTREAM` env only sets the default profile gateway. ## Common Operations Recreate webui: ```bash docker compose up -d --no-deps --force-recreate hermes-webui ``` View auth token: ```bash docker compose logs hermes-webui | grep token # or cat ./hermes_data/hermes-web-ui/.token ``` Stop: ```bash docker compose down ```
