This guide helps you set up Unleash Enterprise in your own environment using [Docker](#set-up-unleash-with-docker). Alternatively, you can sign up for a [cloud-hosted trial instance](https://www.getunleash.io/pricing).
|
|
|
|
If you are looking to set up the open-source version of Unleash, please refer to the instructions in the [Unleash GitHub repository](https://github.com/Unleash/unleash?tab=readme-ov-file#get-started-with-unleash).
|
|
|
|
## Set up Unleash with Docker
|
|
|
|
To start Unleash locally, clone the Unleash repository and start the server with [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/):
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
git clone git@github.com:Unleash/unleash.git
|
|
|
|
cd unleash
|
|
docker compose -f docker-compose-enterprise.yml up
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This pulls the `unleashorg/unleash-enterprise` Docker image and uses a Docker Compose file to configure the Unleash server and its database.
|
|
|
|
> This step uses `docker compose` (V2 syntax). If you have the older `docker-compose` (V1), use that command syntax instead.
|
|
|
|
## Log in to the Unleash Admin UI
|
|
|
|
In your browser, go to [http://localhost:4242](http://localhost:4242) and log in using the following credentials:
|
|
- **username**: `admin`
|
|
- **password**: `unleash4all`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Install your trial license
|
|
|
|
Request a license by signing up for a self-hosted trial [here](https://www.getunleash.io/pricing). Once you've signed up, you'll receive an email from Unleash containing your trial license key.
|
|
|
|
In the Admin UI, go to **Admin > License**, copy the license key you received by email and click **Update license key**.
|
|
|
|
The top banner now displays the number of days you have left on your free trial.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Create your first flag
|
|
|
|
To create your first flag:
|
|
1. Open the **Default** project.
|
|
2. Click **New feature flag**.
|
|
3. Enter a name, and click **Create feature flag**.
|
|
|
|
For more details on creating feature flags, see [How to create a feature flag](/how-to-create-feature-flag).
|
|
|
|
## Connect an SDK
|
|
|
|
Next, use one of the client or server-side [SDKs](/reference/sdks) to connect Unleash with your application.
|

<TabItem value="sdk-client-side" label="Connect a client-side SDK">
|
|
|
|
1. Create a [frontend API token](/reference/api-tokens-and-client-keys#frontend-tokens).
|
|
2. Determine your Unleash URL, for example: `http://localhost:4242/api/frontend`.
|
|
3. Use the SDK to connect to Unleash in your application.
|
|
|
|
The following example shows how to use the [JavaScript SDK](/reference/sdks/javascript-browser) to connect to your Unleash instance:
|
|
|
|
```javascript title="JavaScript SDK"
|
|
import { UnleashClient } from "unleash-proxy-client";
|
|
|
|
const unleash = new UnleashClient({
|
|
url: "https://<your-unleash-instance>/api/frontend",
|
|
clientKey: "<your-token>",
|
|
appName: "<your-app-name>",
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
unleash.on("synchronized", () => {
|
|
// Unleash is ready to serve updated feature flags.
|
|
|
|
// Check a feature flag
|
|
if (unleash.isEnabled("some-flag")) {
|
|
// do cool new things when the flag is enabled
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</TabItem>
|
|
<TabItem value="sdk-server-side" label="Connect a server-side SDK">
|
|
|
|
1. Create a [client API token](/reference/api-tokens-and-client-keys#client-tokens).
|
|
2. Determine your Unleash URL, for example: `http://localhost:4242/api`.
|
|
3. Use the SDK to connect to Unleash in your application.
|
|
|
|
The following example shows how to use the [Node.js SDK](/reference/sdks/node) to connect to your Unleash instance:
|
|
|
|
```javascript title="Node.js SDK"
|
|
const { initialize } = require("unleash-client");
|
|
|
|
const unleash = initialize({
|
|
url: "https://<your-unleash-instance>/api",
|
|
appName: "<your-app-name>",
|
|
customHeaders: {
|
|
Authorization: "<your-token>",
|
|
},
|
|
});
|
|
|
|
unleash.on("synchronized", () => {
|
|
// Unleash is ready to serve updated feature flags.
|
|
|
|
if (unleash.isEnabled("some-flag")) {
|
|
// do cool new things when the flag is enabled
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
</TabItem>
|
|
</Tabs>
