-# logseq-watch
-
-First: I don't know anything about clojure or too much about node.  As long as I
-can continue to get builds to work, I'll keep this updated.  But if it gets
-complicated, I'm out :)
-
-This is a docker container that provides the db-sync for self-hosted logseq
-sync.  I built it following the instructions at https://4shutosh.com/selfhost-logseq except instead of "VPS Deployement" I did a "Docker Deployment".
-
-# Usage
-!!As of 2026-03-13, this has only been tested locally on port 8787, so currently is extremely limited!!.
-Eventually this will be put it behind an NGINX reverse proxy with a dedicated name, that I have physically set
-up on my server.  The docker-compose file could be extended to support that in
-docker, but I am probably not going to be testing it that way myself.
-
-Make sure you define a data directory that persists.  If you don't, your sync
-data will be lost when the container restarts.  The example docker-compose file
-is using a bind mount, you could use a named mount instead if you prefer.  The
-docker-compose example has commented out lines that show that.
-
-This is very much a work in progress
