Docker compose is the recommended way to run this image. Copy the content of folder examples/compose in /var/jls/ on your host for example. Edit the compose and env files with your preferences and run the following commands:

docker compose up -d
docker compose logs -f

You can also use the following minimal command:

$ docker run -d -p 8000:8000 --name jetbrains_license_server \
  -e TZ="Europe/Paris" \
  -e JLS_VIRTUAL_HOSTS=jls.example.com \
  -v $(pwd)/data:/data \
  crazymax/jetbrains-license-server:latest

Recreate the container whenever I push an update:

docker compose pull
docker compose up -d

If you have any trouble using the license server, check the official Troubleshooting page of Jetbrains.

If you've got the following message :

Passed value of header "Host" is not allowed. Please contact your license server administrator.

That's because the license server is running behind a reverse proxy. Please configure virtual hosts using the JLS_VIRTUAL_HOSTS variable.
