Dependencies

Overleaf currently supports the following versions of dependencies:

• Docker 20.10, 23.0, 24.0
• MongoDB 4.4
• Redis 6

docker-compose is generally installed with Docker.

MongoDB and Redis are automatically pulled by docker-compose when running Overleaf CE or Server Pro, unless configured to use a different installation.

Once docker is installed correctly, you should be able to run these commands without error:

docker --version

# v1
docker-compose --version
# v2
docker compose version

docker ps

The Overleaf Toolkit includes a handy bin/doctor script that produces a report pointing to any unfulfilled dependency.
