Tinyfilemanager Docker Compose Guide
A directory on your host machine to store the files you want to manage. Docker Compose Configuration Create a file named docker-compose.yaml and paste the following configuration: tinyfilemanager tinyfilemanager/tinyfilemanager container_name : tinyfilemanager : - . :/var/www/html/data - . /config.php :/var/www/html/config.php environment
Traditional file management solutions like Nextcloud or ownCloud are excellent but come with heavy resource footprints, database dependencies, and complex upgrade paths. TinyFileManager stands out due to its simplicity:
networks: traefik_public: external: true tinyfilemanager docker compose
Exposing TinyFileManager directly to the internet on a standard port is a significant security risk. A better approach is to bind the container's port to 127.0.0.1 (localhost) only. This makes TinyFileManager only accessible from the host machine itself. Then, you can set up a reverse proxy like Nginx or Caddy on the host to handle external HTTPS connections.
TinyFileManager requires passwords to be hashed using the PHP password_hash function with the PASSWORD_BCRYPT algorithm. A directory on your host machine to store
