# Installing
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
First copy `.env-sample` to `.env` and edit the values in there:
|
|
|
|
- `APP_BASE_URL`: This is the base public URL where the service will be running. For example, if you want it to run from `https://example.com/joplin`, this is what you should set the URL to. The base URL can include the port.
|
|
- `APP_PORT`: The local port on which the Docker container will listen. You would typically map this port to 443 (TLS) with a reverse proxy.
|
|
|
|
## Running the server
|
|
|
|
To start the server with default configuration, run:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
docker run --env-file .env -p 22300:22300 joplin/server:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will start the server, which will listen on port **22300** on **localhost**. By default it will use SQLite, which allows you to test the app without setting up a database. To run it for production though, you'll want to connect the container to a database, as described below.
|
|
|
|
## Setup the database
|
|
|
|
You can setup the container to either use an existing PostgreSQL server, or connect it to a new one using docker-compose
|
|
|
|
### Using an existing PostgreSQL server
|
|
|
|
To use an existing PostgresSQL server, set the following environment variables in the .env file:
|
|
|
|
```conf
|
|
DB_CLIENT=pg
|
|
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=joplin
|
|
POSTGRES_DATABASE=joplin
|
|
POSTGRES_USER=joplin
|
|
POSTGRES_PORT=5432
|
|
POSTGRES_HOST=localhost
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Make sure that the provided database and user exist as the server will not create them.
|
|
|
|
### Using docker-compose
|
|
|
|
A [sample docker-compose file](https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/blob/dev/docker-compose.server.yml
|
|
) is available to show how to use Docker to install both the database and server and connect them:
|
|
|
|
## Setup reverse proxy
|
|
|
|
Once Joplin Server is running, you will then need to expose it to the internet by setting up a reverse proxy, and that will depend on how your server is currently configured, and whether you already have Nginx or Apache running:
|
|
|
|
- [Apache Reverse Proxy](https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_proxy.html)
|
|
- [Nginx Reverse Proxy](https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/web-server/reverse-proxy/)
|
|
|
|
## Setup the website
|
|
|
|
Once the server is exposed to the internet, you can open the admin UI and get it ready for synchronisation. For the following instructions, we'll assume that the Joplin server is running on `https://example.com/joplin`.
|
|
|
|
### Secure the admin user
|
|
|
|
By default, the instance will be setup with an admin user with email **admin@localhost** and password **admin** and you should change this. To do so, open `https://example.com/joplin/login` and login as admin. Then go to the Profile section and change the admin password.
|
|
|
|
### Create a user for sync
|
|
|
|
While the admin user can be used for synchronisation, it is recommended to create a separate non-admin user for it. To do so, navigate to the Users page - from there you can create a new user. Once this is done, you can use the email and password you specified to sync this user account with your Joplin clients.
|
|
|
|
## Checking the logs
|
|
|
|
Checking the log can be done the standard Docker way:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# With Docker:
|
|
docker logs --follow CONTAINER
|
|
|
|
# With docker-compose:
|
|
docker-compose --file docker-compose.server.yml logs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Setup for development
|
|
|
|
## Setup up the database
|
|
|
|
### SQLite
|
|
|
|
By default the server supports SQLite for development, so nothing needs to be setup.
|
|
|
|
### PostgreSQL
|
|
|
|
To use Postgres, from the monorepo root, run `docker-compose --file docker-compose.server-dev.yml up`, which will start the PostgreSQL database.
|
|
|
|
## Starting the server
|
|
|
|
From `packages/server`, run `npm run start-dev`
