- Clone the lakeFS repo:

cd lakeFS/deployments/compose && docker compose up -d
Once you have your Docker environment running, it is helpful to pull up the UI for lakeFS. To do this navigate to http://localhost:8000
in your browser. The access key and secret to login are found in the docker_compose.yml
file in the lakefs-setup
section.
Once you are logged in, you should see a page that looks like below.
The first thing to notice is in this environment, lakeFS comes with a repository called example
already created, and the repo’s default branch is main
. If your lakeFS installation doesn’t have the example
repo created, you can use the green Create Repository
button to do so:
