Quick Start

Deploy LiMon in under 10 minutes.

Prerequisites

  • Docker Engine 20.10+ and Docker Compose v2
  • Network access to your license servers (ports vary by vendor)
  • 2 GB RAM, 10 GB disk (minimum)

1. Get the Docker Compose file

curl -fsSL https://get.limonops.com/docker-compose.yml -o docker-compose.yml

2. Start the stack

docker compose up -d

This starts 5 containers: web frontend, REST API, poller, MariaDB, and Redis.

3. Open the dashboard

Navigate to http://your-server:8080 in your browser.

4. Add your first license server

Edit config.yml and add your license server details:

servers:
  - name: "My FlexLM Server"
    type: flexlm
    host: license-server.local
    port: 27000

Restart the stack: docker compose restart

Use the Admin UI Setup Wizard:

  1. Click Add Server in the Admin panel
  2. Select the license manager type (FlexLM, RLM, LM-X, or DSLS)
  3. Enter the server hostname and port
  4. Click Test Connection to verify
  5. Click Save

LiMon will begin polling immediately and display results on the dashboard.
