Important
Your administration page will be accessible to anyone
If you have another method you would like to use for authentication to the /admin page then you can set the DISABLE_ADMIN_TOKEN variable to true. This will disable the built in ADMIN_TOKEN used for authentication while also enabling the admin panel. Anyone with access to the URL will be able to access the admin panel. You will need to take extra steps to secure it. This includes externally and locally.
docker run -d --name bitwarden \
-e DISABLE_ADMIN_TOKEN=true \
-v /vw-data/:/data/ \
-p 80:80 \
