This definition contains 2 containers, one for Node.js and one for EdgeDB. You will be connected to the Node.js container, and can use the EdgeDB CLI in the Node.js container (installed via the edgedb-cli feature) to connect to the instance in the EdgeDB container. The password for the edgedb server is secret.
edgedb instance link edgedb-docker --trust-tls-cert --host=edgedb --port=5656 --password
# Select the defaults when prompted, and type in the password `secret` when promptedYou should now be connected to the edgedb-docker instance. You can list the instances with the following command:
edgedb instance list

└────────┴───────────────┴─────────────┴─────────────┴────────┘The EdgeDB Container sets the environment variable EDGEDB_SERVER_ADMIN_UI=enabled, so you can run the integrated UI. To access the UI, run the following command:
edgedb ui --print-url --no-server-checkThis should print out a URL that you can open in your browser, something like http://localhost:5656/ui. The default credentials are:
Username: edgedb
Password: secret (same as EDGEDB_SERVER_PASSWORD)
