Docker

Ritual can be run inside a Docker container. This is particularly useful for self-hosting the static site generator and cache server. The provided Dockerfile uses Alpine Linux and uses the CLI as its entrypoint, so you can run any command directly by passing it to docker run or in your docker-compose.yml.

Docker Compose

Example docker-compose.yml

This docker-compose.yml example shows an example of running the cache-server command, which starts the cache server with some common options:

services:
ritual:
image: ritual
build: .
ports:
- '3000:3000'
volumes:
- ./dist:/app/dist
- ./decks:/app/decks
- ./collections:/app/collections
- ./cache:/app/cache
- ./.logins:/app/.logins
command: cache-server --host 0.0.0.0 --port 4000 --verbose --cards-refresh weekly --prices-refresh weekly

Directory Mounts

To ensure persistence and allow you to interact with the files Ritual uses, you should mount the following directories:

Host DirectoryContainer DirectoryPurpose
./dist/app/distThe generated static website files.
./decks/app/decksYour Magic: The Gathering deck files (.md).
./collections/app/collectionsYour card collection files.
./cache/app/cacheCached card data and images from Scryfall.
