# Running MobiusFlow via Docker

MobiusFlow has been containerised and is run via docker. 

## Mobius v1.X.X

Below is an example docker-compose.yml file you could use when running MobiusFlow. In this example, an online version of MobiusFlow 1.19.1 is used. Note that, as well as the MobiusFlow service (labelled simply 'mobius'), the file also containers a reference to an nginx and mongodb containers.

The nginx container is used for port mapping, and mongodb container used as a database. Neither of these are required to run MobiusFlow.

## Licensing

It is important to include the correct licensing information within the environment variables of your docker-compose.yml file.

See the main [article](/help/technical-docs/licencing/licensing-v1.19.1-and-later.md) on licensing for a full explanation of what is required for online and offline licensing as well updating a given licence.
