This section assumes you want to get started quickly, the following sections explain the
steps in more detail. So let's start.
Just start up a new database container:
Create a new database volume:
```bash
# DB=$(docker run -d nornagon/postgres)
# docker volume create ttrss-db
```
Create a Postgres database instance:
```bash
# DB=$(docker run -d --restart-always --name ttrss-db -v ttrss-db:/var/lib/postgresql/data -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=password postgres:alpine)

Decided to back up your data container and/or move to another server? Here's how
you do it:
On the old server, stop your TT-RSS container and then do:
```bash
# docker export <container name> | gzip > /tmp/<filename>.tar.gz
```
On the new server, copy the created .tar.gz file from the old server and
import the file with:
```bash
# docker import <filename>.tar.gz
```
This will import the container from the .tar.gz file into Docker's local registry.
After that you can run that imported container again the usual way with:
```bash
# docker run -d <IMAGE ID>
```
* On the old server, stop your TT-RSS container.
* Back up the database volume (```ttrss-db```) and copy it to the new server.
* Repeat the steps for creating the TT-RSS database container and the actual TT-RSS instance.
This time the (old) database volume will be already around, so that you can start right away.
