As of Kong 1.1 you can use db-less (declarative) configuration.

I can't find any information on how to start a Kong 1.1 based container in db-less/declarative mode without having to set up a db connection first. Does anyone know how to do this?

Checks documentation at https://hub.docker.com/_/kong

On the step 4 of kong official docker installation,
just change the config of docker run command FROM -e "KONG_DATABASE=postgres" TO -e "KONG_DATABASE=off" and you can go ahead!

remember that if you have a kong container run with postgres or cassandra before, firstly remove that configured kong container and image! Then run command like above

kong docker compose file: this shows the config of kong database in docker
