# Mapserver installation
**Please make a backup of your world in case something goes wrong**
## Simple installation
* Download the binary from the [releases](https://github.com/minetest-tools/mapserver/releases) for your architecture and platform
* Drop the binary into your world folder (the one with the `world.mt` and `map.sqlite` files)
* Start the mapserver via command-line: `./mapserver` or `./mapserver.exe`
* Point your browser to `http://127.0.0.1:8080`
For additional infos (lag,time,players => active mode) on the mapserver interface you should install the [mapserver-mod](mod.md)
## Docker image
Simple docker run example:
```
docker run --rm --it -p 8080:8080 -v $(pwd):/minetest -w /minetest buckaroobanzay/mapserver
```
## Docker compose
Examplary `docker-compose` config:
```yml
services:
mapserver:
image: buckaroobanzay/mapserver
restart: always
networks:
- default
depends_on:
- "postgres"
volumes:
- "./data/minetest/world:/minetest"
working_dir: "/minetest"
```

## Performance / Scalability
For small to medium setups the default values should suffice.
If you have a bigger map (say: above 10 GB) you should configure the mapserver accordingly:
