# Installation
## Docker with SQLite
```bash
docker run -d \
--name noco \
-v "$(pwd)"/nocodb:/usr/app/data/ \
-p 8080:8080 \
nocodb/nocodb:latest
```
## Docker with PG
```bash
docker run -d \
--name noco \
-v "$(pwd)"/nocodb:/usr/app/data/ \
-p 8080:8080 \
-e NC_DB="pg://host.docker.internal:5432?u=root&p=password&d=d1" \
-e NC_AUTH_JWT_SECRET="569a1821-0a93-45e8-87ab-eb857f20a010" \
nocodb/nocodb:latest
```
## Auto-upstall
Auto-upstall is a single command that sets up NocoDB on a server for production usage.
Behind the scenes it auto-generates docker-compose for you.
```bash
bash <(curl -sSL http://install.nocodb.com/noco.sh) <(mktemp)
```
Auto-upstall does the following: 🕊
- 🐳 Automatically installs all pre-requisites like docker, docker-compose
- 🚀 Automatically installs NocoDB with PostgreSQL, Redis, Minio, Traefik gateway using Docker Compose. 🐘 🗄️ 🌐
- 🔄 Automatically upgrades NocoDB to the latest version when you run the command again.
- 🔒 Automatically setups SSL and also renews it. Needs a domain or subdomain as input while installation.
> install.nocodb.com/noco.sh script can be found [here in our github](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nocodb/nocodb/develop/docker-compose/1_Auto_Upstall/noco.sh)

# Why are we building this?
Most internet businesses equip themselves with either spreadsheet or a database to solve their business needs. Spreadsheets are used by Billion+ humans collaboratively every single day. However, we are way off working at similar speeds on databases which are way more powerful tools when it comes to computing. Attempts to solve this with SaaS offerings have meant horrible access controls, vendor lock-in, data lock-in, abrupt price changes & most importantly a glass ceiling on what's possible in the future.
# Our Mission
Our mission is to provide the most powerful no-code interface for databases, accessible to every internet business across the world. By making this capability broadly available under a fair and sustainable model, we aim to democratise access to powerful computing tools and enable a billion-plus people to develop radical tinkering and building abilities on the internet.

NocoDB converts existing SQL databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, or MariaDB into a collaborative spreadsheet UI. Teams can use it as an open-source alternative to Airtable or Smartsheet without rewriting their backend data models.
Key Features
- Works with your databases – Connect to any supported SQL engine and automatically generate tables, views, and relationships with a friendly spreadsheet interface.
- Multiple view types – Switch between grid, Kanban, gallery, calendar, and Gantt views to match the needs of product, marketing, or operations teams.
- Fine-grained permissions – Invite collaborators with role-based access, limit what they can read or edit at the table, view, or field level, and secure sensitive data.
- Automations and integrations – Trigger notifications or workflows via Slack, Teams, Zapier, Make, or custom webhooks to keep downstream systems in sync.
- API gateway – Instantly expose your data with generated REST and GraphQL endpoints so developers can build apps on top of shared datasets.
Deployment Notes
- The official Docker images are the quickest way to start. Pair NocoDB with an external database for easier upgrades and backups.
- Set the
NC_DBenvironment variables indocker-compose.ymlto point at the persistent SQL instance that stores metadata. - Put NocoDB behind a reverse proxy with HTTPS enabled and configure SMTP so you can invite collaborators via email.
- Schedule regular backups of both the connected database and uploaded attachments to protect against accidental data loss.
