Install Requirements

2

Clone the Nexus repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Nexus-dot-app/Nexus.git
3

Navigate to the compose files

cd Nexus/deployment/docker_compose
4

Launch Nexus

To pull images from Docker Hub and start Nexus:
docker compose up -d
Alternatively, to build images from source:
docker compose up -d --build --force-recreate
If you’ve previously launched Nexus with the old Nexus-stack service name, you’ll need to add -p Nexus-stack to your launch command.For example: docker compose up -p Nexus-stack -d.
After the containers come up, the system needs to go through an initialization process after which you can access Nexus at localhost:3000.
