Hi everyone, I’ve recently been working on PR #17244, which aimed to expose the REST API port (18080) by default in docker-compose-standalone.yml.
After discussing with Jackie, we agreed that the default Docker configuration should remain consistent with the distribution package. However, I believe there may be value in making the REST API more discoverable for users working with containerized deployments, as it can serve as a common entry point for integrations. I’d like to gather the community’s thoughts on possible approaches: • Commented-out Sections: Including the REST port and related environment variables in the YAML file, but keeping them commented out with a brief explanation. • Documentation Update: Keeping the YAML minimal and instead adding a "Docker REST Quickstart" section in the official documentation. • Alternative Compose Files: Providing an additional docker-compose-full.yml for users who want all services enabled by default. I’d really appreciate any feedback or suggestions on how to balance consistency with usability in this case. Best regards, Shaurya Vardhan Singh Chauhan
