Compose Plugin

Docker (Compose) site type

Prerequisites: Docker Engine and Docker Compose v2 must be installed on the server, and the SSH user must be able to run docker commands.

Port behavior: each Docker site binds to a unique localhost-only host port (127.0.0.1:<host_port>). If you leave host_http_port empty, Vito auto-allocates a free port in the 30000–39999 range and persists it for redeploys. Nginx proxies the site’s domain to that port.

LibreChat example (repo source):

• compose_source: repo
• repo_url: https://github.com/danny-avila/LibreChat.git
• repo_branch: main
• project_dir: app
• compose_file: docker-compose.yml
• container_http_port: 3080
• host_http_port: leave empty to auto-allocate
• env_content: paste the .env content from the LibreChat docs
