# Backend
|
||||
|
||||
## Install from binary
|
||||
|
||||
Download a copy of Vikunja from the [download page](https://vikunja.io/en/download/) for your architecture.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||||
wget <download-url>
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Verify the GPG signature
|
||||
|
||||
Starting with version `0.7`, all releases are signed using pgp.
|
||||
Releases from `master` will always be signed.
|
||||
|
||||
To validate the downloaded zip file use the signiture file `.asc` and the key `FF054DACD908493A`:
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||||
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv FF054DACD908493A
|
||||
gpg --verify vikunja-0.7-linux-amd64-full.zip.asc vikunja-0.7-linux-amd64-full.zip
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Set it up
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've verified the signature, you need to unzip it and make it executable, you'll also need to
|
||||
create a symlink to it so you can execute Vikunja by typing `vikunja` on your system.
|
||||
We'll install vikunja to `/opt/vikunja`, change the path where needed if you want to install it elsewhere.
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||||
mkdir -p /opt/vikunja
|
||||
unzip <vikunja-zip-file> -d /opt/vikunja
|
||||
chmod +x /opt/vikunja
|
||||
ln -s /opt/vikunja/vikunja /usr/bin/vikunja
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Systemd service
|
||||
|
||||
Take the following `service` file and adapt it to your needs:
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight service >}}
|
||||
[Unit]
|
||||
Description=Vikunja
|
||||
After=syslog.target
|
||||
After=network.target
|
||||
# Depending on how you configured Vikunja, you may want to uncomment these:
|
||||
#Requires=mysql.service
|
||||
#Requires=mariadb.service
|
||||
#Requires=redis.service
|
||||
|
||||
[Service]
|
||||
RestartSec=2s
|
||||
Type=simple
|
||||
WorkingDirectory=/opt/vikunja
|
||||
ExecStart=/usr/bin/vikunja
|
||||
Restart=always
|
||||
# If you want to bind Vikunja to a port below 1024 uncomment
|
||||
# the two values below
|
||||
###
|
||||
#CapabilityBoundingSet=CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE
|
||||
#AmbientCapabilities=CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE
|
||||
|
||||
[Install]
|
||||
WantedBy=multi-user.target
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
If you've installed Vikunja to a directory other than `/opt/vikunja`, you need to adapt `WorkingDirectory` accordingly.
|
||||
|
||||
Save the file to `/etc/systemd/system/vikunja.service`
|
||||
|
||||
After you made all nessecary modifications, it's time to start the service:
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||||
sudo systemctl enable vikunja
|
||||
sudo systemctl start vikunja
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
### Build from source
|
||||
|
||||
To build vikunja from source, see [building from source]({{< ref "build-from-source.md">}}).
|
||||
|
||||
### Updating
|
||||
|
||||
Simply replace the binary and templates with the new version, then restart Vikunja.
|
||||
It will automatically run all nessecary database migrations.
|
||||
**Make sure to take a look at the changelog for the new version to not miss any manual steps the update may involve!**
|
||||
|
||||
## Docker
|
||||
|
||||
(Note: this assumes some familarity with docker)
|
||||
|
||||
Usage with docker is pretty straightforward:
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||||
docker run -p 3456:3456 vikunja/api
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
to run with a standard configuration.
|
||||
This will expose
|
||||
|
||||
You can mount a local configuration like so:
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||||
docker run -p 3456:3456 -v /path/to/config/on/host.yml:/app/vikunja/config.yml:ro vikunja/api
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
Though it is recommended to use eviroment variables or `.env` files to configure Vikunja in docker.
|
||||
See [config]({{< ref "config.md">}}) for a list of available configuration options.
|
||||
|
||||
### Docker compose
|
||||
|
||||
To run the backend with a mariadb database you can use this example [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/) file:
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight yaml >}}
|
||||
version: '2'
|
||||
services:
|
||||
api:
|
||||
image: vikunja/api:latest
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
VIKUNJA_DATABASE_HOST: db
|
||||
VIKUNJA_DATABASE_PASSWORD: supersecret
|
||||
VIKUNJA_DATABASE_TYPE: mysql
|
||||
VIKUNJA_DATABASE_USER: root
|
||||
VIKUNJA_SERVICE_JWTSECRET: <generated secret>
|
||||
db:
|
||||
image: mariadb:10
|
||||
environment:
|
||||
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: supersecret
|
||||
MYSQL_DATABASE: vikunja
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./db:/var/lib/mysql
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
See [full docker example]({{< ref "full-docker-example.md">}}) for more varations of this config.
|
||||
|
||||
## Debian packages
|
||||
|
||||
Since version 0.7 Vikunja is also released as debian packages.
|
||||
|
||||
To install these, grab a copy from [the download page](https://vikunja.io/en/download/) and run
|
||||
|
||||
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
||||
dpkg -i vikunja.deb
|
||||
{{< /highlight >}}
|
||||
|
||||
This will install the backend to `/opt/vikunja`.
|
||||
To configure it, use the config file in `/etc/vikunja/config.yml`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
See [available configuration options]({{< ref "config.md">}}).
