|
||||
### Quick Start with Docker 🐳
|
||||
|
||||
- **User Registrations:** All subsequent users signing up will initially have their accounts set to **Pending** status by default. These accounts will require approval from the Administrator to gain access to the platform functionalities.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Privacy and Data Security:** We prioritize your privacy and data security above all. Please be reassured that all data entered into Open WebUI is stored locally on your device. Our system is designed to be privacy-first, ensuring that no external requests are made, and your data does not leave your local environment. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of data privacy and security, ensuring that your information remains confidential and under your control.
|
||||
|
||||
### Steps to Install Open WebUI
|
||||
|
||||
#### Before You Begin
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Installing Docker:**
|
||||
|
||||
- **For Windows and Mac Users:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Download Docker Desktop from [Docker's official website](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop).
|
||||
- Follow the installation instructions provided on the website. After installation, open Docker Desktop to ensure it's running properly.
|
||||
|
||||
- **For Ubuntu and Other Linux Users:**
|
||||
- Open your terminal.
|
||||
- Set up your Docker apt repository according to the [Docker documentation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/#install-using-the-repository)
|
||||
- Update your package index:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo apt-get update
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Install Docker using the following command:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Verify the Docker installation with:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo docker run hello-world
|
||||
```
|
||||
This command downloads a test image and runs it in a container, which prints an informational message.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Ensure You Have the Latest Version of Ollama:**
|
||||

||||
3. **Verify Ollama Installation:**
|
||||
- After installing Ollama, check if it's working by visiting [http://127.0.0.1:11434/](http://127.0.0.1:11434/) in your web browser. Remember, the port number might be different for you.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Installing with Docker 🐳
|
||||
|
||||
- **Important:** When using Docker to install Open WebUI, make sure to include the `-v open-webui:/app/backend/data` in your Docker command. This step is crucial as it ensures your database is properly mounted and prevents any loss of data.

#### Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### Installing Ollama and Open WebUI Together
|
||||
Encountering connection issues? Our [Open WebUI Documentation](https://docs.openwebui.com/getting-started/troubleshooting/) has got you covered. For further assistance and to join our vibrant community, visit the [Open WebUI Discord](https://discord.gg/5rJgQTnV4s).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Using Docker Compose
|
||||
### Other Installation Methods
|
||||
|
||||
- If you don't have Ollama yet, use Docker Compose for easy installation. Run this command:
|
||||
We offer various installation alternatives, including non-Docker methods, Docker Compose, Kustomize, and Helm. Visit our [Open WebUI Documentation](https://docs.openwebui.com/getting-started/) or join our [Discord community](https://discord.gg/5rJgQTnV4s) for comprehensive guidance.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker compose up -d --build
|
||||
```
|
||||
### Keeping Your Docker Installation Up-to-Date
|
||||
|
||||
- **For GPU Support:** Use an additional Docker Compose file:
|
||||
Stay current by following our Migration Guide available in our [Open WebUI Documentation](https://docs.openwebui.com/getting-started/).
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker compose -f docker-compose.yaml -f docker-compose.gpu.yaml up -d --build
|
||||
```
|
||||
## What's Next? 🌟
|
||||
|
||||
- **To Expose Ollama API:** Use another Docker Compose file:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker compose -f docker-compose.yaml -f docker-compose.api.yaml up -d --build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Using `run-compose.sh` Script (Linux or Docker-Enabled WSL2 on Windows)
|
||||
|
||||
- Give execute permission to the script:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
chmod +x run-compose.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- For CPU-only container:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./run-compose.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- For GPU support (read the note about GPU compatibility):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./run-compose.sh --enable-gpu
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- To build the latest local version, add `--build`:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./run-compose.sh --enable-gpu --build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Alternative Installation Methods
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Updating your Docker Installation
|
||||
|
||||
In case you want to update your local Docker installation to the latest version, you can do it with [Watchtower](https://containrrr.dev/watchtower/):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker run --rm --volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower --run-once open-webui
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In the last part of the command, replace `open-webui` with your container name if it is different.
|
||||
|
||||
### Moving from Ollama WebUI to Open WebUI
|
||||
|
||||
Given recent name changes, the docker image has been renamed. Additional steps are required to update for those people that used Ollama WebUI previously and want to start using the new images.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Updating to Open WebUI without keeping your data
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to update to the new image but don't want to keep any previous data like conversations, prompts, documents, etc. you can perform the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker rm -f ollama-webui
|
||||
docker pull ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
|
||||
[insert the equivalent command that you used to install with the new Docker image name]
|
||||
docker volume rm ollama-webui
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For example, for local installation it would be `docker run -d -p 3000:8080 --add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway -v open-webui:/app/backend/data --name open-webui --restart always ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main`. For other installation commands, check the relevant parts of this README document.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Migrating your contents from Ollama WebUI to Open WebUI
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to update to the new image migrating all your previous settings like conversations, prompts, documents, etc. you can perform the following steps:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker rm -f ollama-webui
|
||||
docker pull ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
|
||||
# Creates a new volume and uses a temporary container to copy from one volume to another as per https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/31154#issuecomment-360531460
|
||||
docker volume create --name open-webui
|
||||
docker run --rm -v ollama-webui:/from -v open-webui:/to alpine ash -c "cd /from ; cp -av . /to"
|
||||
[insert the equivalent command that you used to install with the new Docker image name]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Once you verify that all the data has been migrated you can erase the old volumen using the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker volume rm ollama-webui
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## How to Install Without Docker
|
||||
|
||||
While we strongly recommend using our convenient Docker container installation for optimal support, we understand that some situations may require a non-Docker setup, especially for development purposes. Please note that non-Docker installations are not officially supported, and you might need to troubleshoot on your own.
|
||||
|
||||
### Project Components
|
||||
|
||||
Open WebUI consists of two primary components: the frontend and the backend (which serves as a reverse proxy, handling static frontend files, and additional features). Both need to be running concurrently for the development environment.
|
||||
|
||||
