Quick Docker Example
The following is a simple example for local testing or a small self-hosted setup. Adjust the API key, data path, port exposure, backups, and server security before using this in production.
services:
typesense:
image: typesense/typesense:latest
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- "8108:8108"
volumes:
- ./typesense-data:/data
command:
- "--data-dir=/data"
- "--api-key=change-this-api-key"
- "--enable-cors"
After starting Typesense, configure JP Site Search with:
- Host: your Typesense hostname or IP address
- Port: 8108, unless changed
- Protocol: http or https depending on setup
- API key: your server-side Typesense API key
For production use, do not expose the Typesense API publicly unless you understand the security implications. JP Site Search is designed so that frontend visitors search through Joomla, not directly through Typesense.
