Quickstart

Here’s a quick getting started to using Structurizr server via the pre-built Docker image, and assumes that you have Docker installed.

1. Create a directory

First you need to create a directory somewhere to store your workspaces. We’ll refer to this directory as the “Structurizr data directory”.

2. Start Structurizr

You can now start Structurizr with the following commands, replacing PATH with the path to your Structurizr data directory:

docker pull structurizr/structurizr
docker run -it --rm -p 8080:8080 -v PATH:/usr/local/structurizr structurizr/structurizr server

For example, if your Structurizr data directory is located at /Users/simon/structurizr, the command would be:

docker pull structurizr/structurizr
docker run -it --rm -p 8080:8080 -v /Users/simon/structurizr:/usr/local/structurizr structurizr/structurizr server

3. Open your web browser

With Structurizr running, you can head to http://localhost:8080 in your web browser, where you should see the home page. Authentication is disabled by default, so you can go ahead and start creating workspaces.
