Install wallabag
Requirements
wallabag is compatible with PHP >= 5.5, including PHP 7.
You'll need the following extensions for wallabag to work. Some of these may already activated in your version of PHP, so you may not have to install all corresponding packages.
- php-session
- php-ctype
- php-dom
- php-hash
- php-simplexml
- php-json
- php-gd
- php-mbstring
- php-xml
- php-tidy
- php-iconv
- php-curl
- php-gettext
- php-tokenizer
wallabag uses PDO to connect to database, so you'll need one of:
- pdo_mysql
- pdo_sqlite
- pdo_pgsql
and it's corresponding database server.
Installation
On a dedicated web server (recommended way)
wallabag uses a big number of libraries in order to function. These libraries must be installed with a tool called Composer. You need to install it if you don't already have.
Install Composer:
curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
You can find specific instructions here:
To install wallabag itself, you must run these two commands:
git clone https://github.com/wallabag/wallabag.git
cd wallabag
git checkout 2.0.3
SYMFONY_ENV=prod composer install --no-dev -o --prefer-dist
php bin/console wallabag:install --env=prod
To start PHP's build-in server and test if everything did install correctly, you can do:
php bin/console server:run --env=prod
And access wallabag at http://yourserverip:8000
Tip
To define parameters with environment variables, you have to set these variables with SYMFONY__
prefix. For example, SYMFONY__DATABASE_DRIVER
. You can have a look to the Symfony documentation.
On a shared hosting
We provide you a package with all dependancies inside. The default configuration uses SQLite for the database. If you want to change these settings, please edit app/config/parameters.yml
.
We already created a user: login and password are wallabag
.
Caution
With this package, wallabag don't check mandatory extensions used in the application (theses checks are made during composer install
when you have a dedicated web server, see above).
Execute this command to download and extract the latest package:
wget http://wllbg.org/latest-v2-package && tar xvf latest-v2-package
Now, read the following documentation to create your virtual host, then access to your wallabag. If you changed the database configuration to use MySQL or PostgreSQL, you need to create a user via this command php bin/console wallabag:install --env=prod
.
Installation with Docker
We provide you a Docker image to install wallabag easily. Have a look to our repository on Docker Hub to have more information.
Command to launch container
docker pull wallabag/wallabag
Virtual hosts
Configuration on Apache
Assuming you install wallabag in the /var/www/wallabag
folder and that you want to use PHP as an Apache module, here's a vhost for wallabag:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName domain.tld
ServerAlias www.domain.tld
DocumentRoot /var/www/wallabag/web
<Directory /var/www/wallabag/web>
AllowOverride None
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from All
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ app.php [QSA,L]
</IfModule>
</Directory>
# uncomment the following lines if you install assets as symlinks
# or run into problems when compiling LESS/Sass/CoffeScript assets
# <Directory /var/www/wallabag>
# Options FollowSymlinks
# </Directory>
# optionally disable the RewriteEngine for the asset directories
# which will allow apache to simply reply with a 404 when files are
# not found instead of passing the request into the full symfony stack
<Directory /var/www/wallabag/web/bundles>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine Off
</IfModule>
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/wallabag_error.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/wallabag_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
After reloading or restarting Apache, you should now be able to access wallabag at http://domain.tld.
Configuration on Nginx
Assuming you install wallabag in the /var/www/wallabag
folder, here's the recipe for wallabag :
server {
server_name domain.tld www.domain.tld;
root /var/www/wallabag/web;
location / {
# try to serve file directly, fallback to app.php
try_files $uri /app.php$is_args$args;
}
location ~ ^/app\.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
include fastcgi_params;
# When you are using symlinks to link the document root to the
# current version of your application, you should pass the real
# application path instead of the path to the symlink to PHP
# FPM.
# Otherwise, PHP's OPcache may not properly detect changes to
# your PHP files (see https://github.com/zendtech/ZendOptimizerPlus/issues/126
# for more information).
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $realpath_root;
# Prevents URIs that include the front controller. This will 404:
# http://domain.tld/app.php/some-path
# Remove the internal directive to allow URIs like this
internal;
}
error_log /var/log/nginx/wallabag_error.log;
access_log /var/log/nginx/wallabag_access.log;
}
After reloading or restarting nginx, you should now be able to access wallabag at http://domain.tld.
Tip
When you want to import large file into wallabag, you need to add this line in your nginx configuration client_max_body_size XM; # allows file uploads up to X megabytes
.
Configuration on lighttpd
Assuming you install wallabag in the /var/www/wallabag folder, here's the recipe for wallabag (edit your lighttpd.conf
file and paste this configuration into it):
server.modules = (
"mod_fastcgi",
"mod_access",
"mod_alias",
"mod_compress",
"mod_redirect",
"mod_rewrite",
)
server.document-root = "/var/www/wallabag/web"
server.upload-dirs = ( "/var/cache/lighttpd/uploads" )
server.errorlog = "/var/log/lighttpd/error.log"
server.pid-file = "/var/run/lighttpd.pid"
server.username = "www-data"
server.groupname = "www-data"
server.port = 80
server.follow-symlink = "enable"
index-file.names = ( "index.php", "index.html", "index.lighttpd.html")
url.access-deny = ( "~", ".inc" )
static-file.exclude-extensions = ( ".php", ".pl", ".fcgi" )
compress.cache-dir = "/var/cache/lighttpd/compress/"
compress.filetype = ( "application/javascript", "text/css", "text/html", "text/plain" )
include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/use-ipv6.pl " + server.port
include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/create-mime.assign.pl"
include_shell "/usr/share/lighttpd/include-conf-enabled.pl"
dir-listing.activate = "disable"
url.rewrite-if-not-file = (
"^/([^?])(?:\?(.))?" => "/app.php?$1&$2",
"^/([^?]*)" => "/app.php?=$1",
)
Rights access to the folders of the project
Test environment
When we just want to test wallabag, we just run the command php bin/console server:run --env=prod
to start our wallabag instance and everything will go smoothly because the user who started the project can access to the current folder naturally, without any problem.
Production environment
As soon as we use Apache or Nginx to access to our wallabag instance, and not from the command php bin/console server:run --env=prod
to start it, we should take care to grant the good rights on the good folders to keep safe all the folders of the project.
To do so, the folder name, known as DocumentRoot
(for apache) or root
(for Nginx), has to be absolutely accessible by the Apache/Nginx user. Its name is generally www-data
, apache
or nobody
(depending on linux system used).
So the folder /var/www/wallabag/web
has to be accessible by this last one. But this could be not enough if we just care about this folder, because we could meet a blank page or get an error 500 when trying to access to the homepage of the project.
This is due to the fact that we will need to grant the same rights access on the folder /var/www/wallabag/var
like those we gave on the folder /var/www/wallabag/web
. Thus, we fix this problem with the following command:
chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/wallabag/var
