# Setup CouchDB to your server
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Install CouchDB and access from PC or Mac
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to set up the CouchDB is using the [docker image]((https://hub.docker.com/_/couchdb)).
|
|
|
|
But some additional configurations are required in `local.ini` to use from Self-hosted LiveSync, like below:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[couchdb]
|
|
single_node=true
|
|
|
|
[chttpd]
|
|
require_valid_user = true
|
|
|
|
[chttpd_auth]
|
|
require_valid_user = true
|
|
authentication_redirect = /_utils/session.html
|
|
|
|
[httpd]
|
|
WWW-Authenticate = Basic realm="couchdb"
|
|
enable_cors = true
|
|
|
|
[cors]
|
|
origins = app://obsidian.md,capacitor://localhost,http://localhost
|
|
credentials = true
|
|
headers = accept, authorization, content-type, origin, referer
|
|
methods = GET, PUT, POST, HEAD, DELETE
|
|
max_age = 3600
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Make `local.ini` and run with docker run like this, you can launch the CouchDB.
|
|
```
|
|
$ docker run --rm -it -e COUCHDB_USER=admin -e COUCHDB_PASSWORD=password -v .local.ini:/opt/couchdb/etc/local.ini -p 5984:5984 couchdb
|
|
```
|
|
Note: At this time, the file owner of local.ini became 5984:5984. It's the limitation docker image. please change the owner before editing local.ini again.
|
|
|
|
If you could confirm that Self-hosted LiveSync can sync with the server, launch docker image as background as you like.
|
|
|
|
example)
|
|
```
|
|
$ docker run -d --restart always -e COUCHDB_USER=admin -e COUCHDB_PASSWORD=password -v .local.ini:/opt/couchdb/etc/local.ini -p 5984:5984 couchdb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Access from mobile device
|
|
If you want to access Self-hosted LiveSync from mobile devices, you need a valid SSL certificate.
|
|
|
|
### Testing from mobile
|
|
In the testing phase, [localhost.run](http://localhost.run/) or something like services is very useful.
|
|
|
|
example on using localhost.run)
|
|
```
|
|
$ ssh -R 80:localhost:5984 nokey@localhost.run
|
|
Warning: Permanently added the RSA host key for IP address '35.171.254.69' to the list of known hosts.
|
|
|
|
===============================================================================
|
|
Welcome to localhost.run!
|
|
|
|
Follow your favourite reverse tunnel at [https://twitter.com/localhost_run].
|
|
|
|
**You need a SSH key to access this service.**
|
|
If you get a permission denied follow Gitlab's most excellent howto:
|
|
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ssh/
|
|
*Only rsa and ed25519 keys are supported*
|
|
|
|
To set up and manage custom domains go to https://admin.localhost.run/
|
|
|
|
More details on custom domains (and how to enable subdomains of your custom
|
|
domain) at https://localhost.run/docs/custom-domains
|
|
|
|
To explore using localhost.run visit the documentation site:

|
** your connection id is xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, please mention it if you send me a message about an issue. **
|
|
|
|
xxxxxxxx.localhost.run tunneled with tls termination, https://xxxxxxxx.localhost.run
|
|
Connection to localhost.run closed by remote host.
|
|
Connection to localhost.run closed.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
https://xxxxxxxx.localhost.run is the temporary server address.
|
|
|
|
### Setting up your domain
|
|
|
|
Set the A record of your domain to point to your server, and host reverse proxy as you like.
|
|
Note: Mounting CouchDB on the top directory is not recommended.
|
|
Using Caddy is a handy way to serve the server with SSL automatically.
|
|
|
|
I have published [docker-compose.yml and ini files](https://github.com/vrtmrz/self-hosted-livesync-server) that launches Caddy and CouchDB at once. Please try it out.
|
|
|
|
And, be sure to check the server log and be careful of malicious access. |
