Deploy Notary Server with Compose

The easiest way to deploy Notary Server is by using Docker Compose. To follow the procedure on this page, you must have already installed Docker Compose.

1. Clone the Notary repository.

   git clone https://github.com/theupdateframework/notary.git
   

2. Build and start Notary Server with the sample certificates.

   docker-compose up -d
   

For more detailed documentation about how to deploy Notary Server, see the instructions to run a Notary service as well as the Notary repository for more information.

1. Make sure that your Docker or Notary client trusts Notary Server’s certificate before you try to interact with the Notary server.

See the instructions for Docker or for Notary depending on which one you are using.
