### Method 1: Pulling and running the Docker container in the terminal

The client can be started using the simple docker run command. If you don't have the container downloaded yet, you can pull it using the docker pull command.

```
//pull container
docker pull decisionrules/client
//run container alone
docker run -d -p 80:80 -e API_URL=YOUR_API_URL decisionrules/client
```

### Method 2: Creating your own docker-compose file

If you don't want to use too much terminal you can create your own docker-compose file. The file type is YAML.

```yaml
version: "1.0"

services:
    server:
        image: decisionrules/client
        environment:
            - "API_URL=YOUR_API_URL"
        ports:
            - "80:80"
```

{% hint style="info" %}
Docker compose files are started with docker compose up command.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.decisionrules.io/doc/v1/on-premise-docker/decisionrules-application/client-app.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
