# Paisa
## Overview
Paisa is a self-hosted personal finance manager built on top of the
plain-text `ledger` accounting format, with a web UI for dashboards,
budgets, and transaction management.
## Project Details
- **Project Repository:** [github.com/ananthakumaran/paisa](https://github.com/ananthakumaran/paisa)
- **Container Image:** [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/ananthakumaran/paisa)
- **Documentation:** [paisa.fyi](https://paisa.fyi/)
- **Reverse Proxy Port:** `7500`
## Getting Started
1. Start the container: `docker compose up -d`
2. Open http://localhost:7500 in your browser
3. Configure your ledger journal and accounts via the web UI
## Environment Variable Notes
PAISA_IMAGE container image (default ananthakumaran/paisa:latest)
PAISA_RESTART restart policy (default unless-stopped)
VOL_PATH host base path for volumes (default /data)
PAISA_PORT host port for the web UI (default 7500)
## Volume Notes
- `/root/Documents/paisa` — ledger journal, config, and database;
stored at `${VOL_PATH:-/data}/paisa` on the host
## Network Notes
Requires proxy network
## Docker Run
```bash
docker run -d \
--name=paisa \
-p 7500:7500 \
-v /data/paisa:/root/Documents/paisa \
ananthakumaran/paisa:latest
```
## Additional Notes / Gotchas
- This is a `_dev` stack — experimental, not yet production-ready.
- The container runs as root and stores everything under
`/root/Documents/paisa`; back up that directory to preserve your
ledger data.
