¶ What is Vaultwarden?
Vaultwarden is a free and secure password manager that works on any device and platform. It is the community version of Bitwarden, with features like organizations, attachments, API, and more.
¶ Docker Compose
services:
vaultwarden:
image: vaultwarden/server:latest
container_name: vaultwarden
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- 8090:80
environment:
DOMAIN: "https://vault.example.com" # Your domain here!
# ADMIN_TOKEN: changeme
volumes:
- /mnt/tank/configs/vaultwarden:/data
Change the domain to the FQDN with https you will be accessing from. Leave the
admin_tokencommented out until you finish the install.
¶ Logging In
Your Vaultwarden server is now ready on whatever port you specified. However, do not go to http://{localhost}:8090. Even though the page will load you will not be able to create an account. You must come in over https, usually using a reverse proxy like Cloudflare tunnels or Nginx.
¶ Admin Controls
After you have created your account, to prevent other users from doing so on your server, you must disable to ability to create new account from the admin panel.
- Go back to your compose file an uncomment out the
ADMIN_TOKENline and relaunch your container - Navigate to https://{yourFQDN}.com/admin and uncheck the box that says Allow new signups. When you are done, scroll to the bottom and click Save
- Now comment the
ADMIN_TOKENline back out and restart the container.
To fully disable to Admin panel, you need to remove the line for the admin token from the config.json file within the container.
