## Install
|
||||
|
||||
### Docker
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure you have both docker and docker-compose(>=`1.24.0`) installed:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
mkdir lemmy/
|
||||
cd lemmy/
|
||||
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dessalines/lemmy/master/docker/prod/docker-compose.yml
|
||||
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dessalines/lemmy/master/docker/lemmy.hjson
|
||||
# Edit lemmy.hjson to do more configuration
|
||||
docker-compose up -d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and go to http://localhost:8536.
|
||||
|
||||
[A sample nginx config](/ansible/templates/nginx.conf) (Image uploading won't work without this), could be setup with:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dessalines/lemmy/master/ansible/templates/nginx.conf
|
||||
# Replace the {{ vars }}
|
||||
sudo mv nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/lemmy.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
#### Updating
|
||||
|
||||
To update to the newest version, run:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dessalines/lemmy/master/docker/prod/docker-compose.yml
|
||||
docker-compose up -d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Ansible
|
||||
|
||||
First, you need to [install Ansible on your local computer](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html) (e.g. using `sudo apt install ansible`) or the equivalent for you platform.
|
||||
|
||||
Then run the following commands on your local computer:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/dessalines/lemmy.git
|
||||
cd lemmy/ansible/
|
||||
cp inventory.example inventory
|
||||
nano inventory # enter your server, domain, contact email

[Lemmy](https://github.com/dessalines/lemmy) is similar to sites like [Reddit](https://reddit.com), [Lobste.rs](https://lobste.rs), [Raddle](https://raddle.me), or [Hacker News](https://news.ycombinator.com/): you subscribe to forums you're interested in, post links and discussions, then vote, and comment on them. Behind the scenes, it is very different; anyone can easily run a server, and all these servers are federated (think email), and connected to the same universe, called the [Fediverse](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse).

# Configuration
|

|

The configuration is based on the file [defaults.hjson](server/config/defaults.hjson). This file also contains documentation for all the available options. To override the defaults, you can copy the options you want to change into your local `config.hjson` file.
|
||||
|

Additionally, you can override any config files with environment variables. These have the same name as the config options, and are prefixed with `LEMMY_`. For example, you can override the `database.password` with
