I tried spinning up the local approach with docker compose, but it fails.

There's no `.env.example` file to copy from. And even if the env vars are set manually, there are issues with the mentioned volumes not existing locally.

Seems like this needs more polish.

thank you for your comment, some example dot files were not copied in my original repo, they have now been added.

Cheers. I checked the updated steps.

This is still missing creating the `output/.postgres-data` dir, without which docker compose refuses to start.

After creating that manually, going to http://localhost/ shows a 403 Forbidden page, which makes you believe that something might have gone wrong.

This is before running `reddarchiver-builder python reddarc.py` to generate the necessary DB from the input data.
