Setting up Synthetic Data

Installation instructions for the Synthetic Data feature.

Use the containers to set up the Synthetic Data feature for data generation.

Open a command prompt.
Navigate to the cloned repository location for protegrity-ai-developer-edition.
Run the following command to download and start the containers. The dependent containers are large in size. Based on the network connection, the containers might take time to download and deploy.
```
cd synthetic-data
docker compose up -d
```
Based on your configuration use the docker-compose up -d command.
Note: By default images are obtained from ghcr.io. To obtain images from public.ecr.aws, navigate to the synthetic-data directory and copy the .env.example file to .env. Open the .env file and uncomment the REGISTRY=public.ecr.aws/protegrity-ai-developer-edition line in the file. Save the file and run the docker compose up -d command to download and start the containers.
Verify that the containers started successfully.
```
docker compose logs
