### Requirements
Maloja should run on any x86 or ARM machine that runs Python.

* `MALOJA_DATA_DIRECTORY` -- Set the directory in the container where configuration folders/files should be located
* Mount a [volume](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#volume) to the specified directory to access these files outside the container (and to make them persistent)
* `MALOJA_FORCE_PASSWORD` -- Set an admin password for maloja
* `MALOJA_HOST` (Optional) -- Maloja uses IPv6 by default for the host. Set this to `0.0.0.0` if you cannot initially access the webserver

You must publish a port on your host machine to bind to the container's web port (default 42010). Note that the Docker version uses IPv4 per default.

### Extras
* If you'd like to display images, you will need API keys for [Last.fm](https://www.last.fm/api/account/create) and [Spotify](https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/applications). These are free of charge!
* Put your server behind a reverse proxy for SSL encryption. Make sure that you're proxying to the IPv6 address unless you changed your settings to use IPv4.
