## 🐳 Docker Compose

- **docker-compose.yml**  
  Sets up environment for RAGFlow and its dependencies.
- **docker-compose-base.yml**  
  Sets up environment for RAGFlow's dependencies: Elasticsearch/[Infinity](https://github.com/infiniflow/infinity), MySQL, MinIO, and Redis.

> [!CAUTION]
> We do not actively maintain **docker-compose-CN-oc9.yml**, **docker-compose-gpu-CN-oc9.yml**, or **docker-compose-gpu.yml**, so use them at your own risk. However, you are welcome to file a pull request to improve any of them.

>   - `RAGFLOW_IMAGE=swr.cn-north-4.myhuaweicloud.com/infiniflow/ragflow:nightly-slim` or,
>   - `RAGFLOW_IMAGE=registry.cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/infiniflow/ragflow:nightly-slim`.
> - For the `nightly` edition:  
>   - `RAGFLOW_IMAGE=swr.cn-north-4.myhuaweicloud.com/infiniflow/ragflow:nightly` or,

## 🐋 Service configuration

[service_conf.yaml](./service_conf.yaml) specifies the system-level configuration for RAGFlow and is used by its API server and task executor. In a dockerized setup, this file is automatically created based on the [service_conf.yaml.template](./service_conf.yaml.template) file (replacing all environment variables by their values).

- `ragflow`
  - `host`: The API server's IP address inside the Docker container. Defaults to `0.0.0.0`.
  - `port`: The API server's serving port inside the Docker container. Defaults to `9380`.

- `mysql`
  - `name`: The MySQL database name. Defaults to `rag_flow`.
  - `user`: The username for MySQL.
  - `password`: The password for MySQL.
  - `port`: The MySQL serving port inside the Docker container. Defaults to `3306`.
  - `max_connections`: The maximum number of concurrent connections to the MySQL database. Defaults to `100`.
  - `stale_timeout`: Timeout in seconds.

- `minio`
  - `user`: The username for MinIO.
  - `password`: The password for MinIO.
  - `host`: The MinIO serving IP *and* port inside the Docker container. Defaults to `minio:9000`.

- `oauth`  
  The OAuth configuration for signing up or signing in to RAGFlow using a third-party account.  It is disabled by default. To enable this feature, uncomment the corresponding lines in **service_conf.yaml.template**.
  - `github`: The GitHub authentication settings for your application. Visit the [Github Developer Settings page](https://github.com/settings/developers) to obtain your client_id and secret_key.

- `user_default_llm`  
  The default LLM to use for a new RAGFlow user. It is disabled by default. To enable this feature, uncomment the corresponding lines in **service_conf.yaml.template**.  
  - `factory`: The LLM supplier. Available options:
    - `"OpenAI"`
    - `"DeepSeek"`
    - `"Moonshot"`
    - `"Tongyi-Qianwen"`
    - `"VolcEngine"`
    - `"ZHIPU-AI"`
  - `api_key`: The API key for the specified LLM. You will need to apply for your model API key online.

> [!TIP]  
> If you do not set the default LLM here, configure the default LLM on the **Settings** page in the RAGFlow UI.
