# Installation
Minne can be installed through several methods. Choose the one that best fits your setup.
## Docker Compose (Recommended)
The fastest way to get Minne running with all dependencies:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/perstarkse/minne.git
cd minne
docker compose up -d
```
The included `docker-compose.yml` handles SurrealDB and Chromium automatically.
**Required:** Set your `OPENAI_API_KEY` in `docker-compose.yml` before starting.
## Nix
Run Minne directly with Nix (includes Chromium):
```bash
nix run 'github:perstarkse/minne#main'
```
Configure via environment variables or a `config.yaml` file. See [Configuration](./configuration.md).
## Pre-built Binaries
Download binaries for Windows, macOS, and Linux from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/perstarkse/minne/releases/latest).
**Requirements:**
- SurrealDB instance (local or remote)
- Chromium (for web scraping)
## Build from Source
```bash
git clone https://github.com/perstarkse/minne.git
cd minne
cargo build --release --bin main
```
The binary will be at `target/release/main`.
**Requirements:**
- Rust toolchain
- SurrealDB accessible at configured address
- Chromium in PATH
## Process Modes
Minne offers flexible deployment:
| Binary | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| `main` | Combined server + worker (recommended) |
| `server` | Web interface and API only |
| `worker` | Background processing only |
For most users, `main` is the right choice. Split deployments are useful for resource optimization or scaling.
