simstudio-db

Official

Docker app from rorar's Repository

Overview

PostgreSQL 17 with pgvector extension for Sim Studio vector embeddings and semantic search. This is the required database backend for Sim Studio. pgvector enables fast similarity search on embeddings and is essential for AI-powered features like semantic search and vector similarity matching in Sim Studio.

Requirements

Database files must reside on locally attached storage (SSD/NVMe recommended), not on remote-mounted filesystems. Used as the database backend for simstudio and realtime services.

IMPORTANT: Before adding this container, you must create the Docker network 'simstudio_internal' first. Follow these steps in Unraid:

  1. Open Terminal (Go to Main, click Terminal button)
  2. Run: docker network create simstudio_internal
  3. Go to Settings > Docker
  4. Set "Enable Docker" to "No" and click Apply
  5. Set "Preserve user defined networks" to "Yes" and click Apply
  6. Set "Enable Docker" to "Yes" and click Apply
  7. The network is now ready for use with all Sim Studio containers
