What happened?

the docker deploye method (https://hop.apache.org/tech-manual/latest/docker-container.html):
I need a long-lived container , so do it like this

docker run -it --rm \
  --user root \
  --env HOP_SERVER_USER=admin \
  --env HOP_SERVER_PASS=admin \
  --env HOP_SERVER_SHUTDOWNPORT=8080 \
  --env HOP_SERVER_PORT=8180 \
  --env HOP_SERVER_HOSTNAME=0.0.0.0 \
  -p 8180:8180 \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  --name my-hop-server-container \
  apache/hop:latest

the logs:

2025/05/26 13:25:49 - Running the entrypoint script with PID 7
2025/05/26 13:25:49 - Not creating a project or environment in the container

and the base url like this:
/hop/api/v1/

and open browser,input address:http://192.168.211.100:8180/hop/api/v1; but error occurred

If my question is not asked correctly, please tell me how to enable the REST API. I hope to access Apache Hop through the API，thank you .

The Hop rest isn't part of the basic docker image. At the moment this has to be set up manually

[bamaer]

as the name implies, the base url is the starting point to which you can add endpoints etc to create valid requests.

you should be able to access http://localhost:8180 without any issues.

checl the docs for the Hop Server rest api.
