This guide covers the secondary installation method for Figranium, which is suitable for all architectures (x86_64, ARM64, etc.) by building the Docker image locally. While the primary and recommended installation method is using the pre-built images from GitHub Container Registry (GHCR), this method provides a reliable fallback for environments where pre-built images might not be optimal or available.
The published GHCR images now ship as a true multi-architecture manifest covering linux/amd64 and linux/arm64. Docker automatically pulls the variant that matches your host, so Apple Silicon Macs and ARM64 Linux servers get a native image instead of running the AMD64 build under QEMU emulation. In most cases the GHCR path is now sufficient. Reach for this Git Clone method only if you need to modify the source or run on an architecture outside those two.

Prerequisites

​
Step-by-Step Installation

1

Clone the Repository

Clone the Figranium repository to your local machine:
2

Build and Start with Docker Compose

Run the following command to build the image locally and start the application in detached mode:
This command will:
  1. Download the necessary base images.
  2. Compile the Figranium source code and build the Docker image for your specific architecture.
  3. Start the containers as defined in the docker-compose.yml file.
3

Access the Application

Once the build is complete and the containers are running, open your browser and navigate to:http://localhost:11345

​
Updating the Installation

To update your installation to the latest version, pull the latest changes from the repository and rebuild the image:

Comparison with GHCR (Primary Method)

We recommend using the GHCR method whenever possible, as it is faster and more streamlined. Use this Git Clone method if you encounter architecture-related issues or need to modify the source code.
