## Installation

### Docker

The latest image is available on DockerHub at [`listmonk/listmonk:latest`](https://hub.docker.com/r/listmonk/listmonk/tags?page=1&ordering=last_updated&name=latest). Use the sample [docker-compose.yml](https://github.com/knadh/listmonk/blob/master/docker-compose.yml) to run manually or use the helper script. 

#### Demo

```bash
mkdir listmonk-demo && cd listmonk-demo
sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/knadh/listmonk/master/install-demo.sh)"
```

DO NOT use this demo setup in production.

#### Production

```bash
mkdir listmonk && cd listmonk
sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/knadh/listmonk/master/install-prod.sh)"
```
Visit `http://localhost:9000`.

**NOTE**: Always examine the contents of shell scripts before executing them.

See [installation docs](https://listmonk.app/docs/installation).

__________________

### Binary
- Download the [latest release](https://github.com/knadh/listmonk/releases) and extract the listmonk binary.
- `./listmonk --new-config` to generate config.toml. Then, edit the file.
- `./listmonk --install` to setup the Postgres DB (or `--upgrade` to upgrade an existing DB. Upgrades are idempotent and running them multiple times have no side effects).
- Run `./listmonk` and visit `http://localhost:9000`.

See [installation docs](https://listmonk.app/docs/installation).

feat: Add easy install script - Add a shell script to orchestrate a production setup with `docker-compose`. The script fetches config and `docker-compose.yml` from the `master` branch, generates a secure password, performs DB migrations and starts the container services. - Add a health check for Postgres container service in `docker-compose.yml`. - Add cusotm `container_name` for services inside `docker-compose`. This is helpful to check the status of containers in the install shell script. 2021-06-14 21:50:13 +08:00			`sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/knadh/listmonk/master/install-demo.sh)"`

feat: Add separate config for demo setup, tweak docs This PR adds `config-demo.toml` to `Dockerfile` which uses the db host `demo-db`. This is more suited for demo setups. For normal docker installations the db host is changed back to `db` which is a better sane default. Reworded `INSTALL.md` and `README.md` for more clarity on docker installation and configuration. 2020-07-09 01:08:31 +08:00
