About

What Dropgate Server does

Dropgate Server is the official backend and reference implementation for secure, privacy-focused file sharing using Dropgate (DGUP and DGDTP) protocols.

Install Flow

How to self-host Dropgate Server

Dropgate Server can be deployed with standard Docker Compose using the Yantr app catalog. This page collects the basic information searchers usually need first: what Dropgate Server does, which Docker image Yantr uses, default ports, dependencies, and where to find the original compose template.

If you searched for Dropgate Server Docker, Dropgate Server Docker Compose, or self-host Dropgate Server, this page is the direct landing page for that app in Yantr's catalog.

After deployment, Yantr also lets you publish additional ports later from the stack page using Docker-style syntax. Use mappings like 8080:8080 for a fixed host port or just 8080 to let Docker assign a random host port for container port 8080.

Use Cases

What people run it for

Set up a reverse proxy or tunnel to allow global access to your Dropgate Server from anywhere.
Harness the power of the @dropgate/core TypeScript library to integrate Dropgate into your own IT infrastructure and workflows.
