6. Create and start containers with `docker-compose up -d`
7. Route your top level reverse proxy to the `caddy` service or to the port that you opened via the docker compose file.
## More extensive configuration
Well, generally, time-wise, it is not really a good idea to create a custom services configuration.
However, I will guide you through the basic minimal configuration.
Basically, the most minimal blek!File is a fileD service connected to a redis database.
I think that if you are clinically insance, you can set these up as a systemd services or a `screen`ed program.
However, its not really recommended to run this without janitorD as unused files will just clog up your filesystem.
The two requirements for janitorD are to have access to the fileD's usercontent directory and the Redis database.
The default docker configuration mounts `/opt/user_content` to the same volume for both fileD and janitorD.
## FileD configuration
Unless you are running in some kind of super customized docker compose environment, just copying the `.env.example` to `.env` should be enough to get it to run.
