Manual installation
You can run the containers that are build for AIO with docker-compose. This comes with a few downsides, that are discussed below.
Advantages
- You can run it without a container having access to the docker socket
- You can modify all values on your own
- You can run the containers with docker swarm
Disadvantages
- You lose the AIO interface
- You lose update notifications and automatic updates
- You lose all AIO backup and restore features
- You lose all community containers: https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/tree/main/community-containers#community-containers
- You need to know what you are doing, especially when modifying the compose.yaml file
- For updating, you need to strictly follow the at the bottom described update routine
- Probably more
How to use this?
First, install docker and docker-compose (v2) if not already done. Then simply run the following:
git clone https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one.git
cd all-in-one/manual-install
Then copy the sample.conf to default environment file, e.g. cp sample.conf .env
, open the new conf file, e.g. with nano .env
, edit all values that are marked with # TODO!
, close and save the file. (Note: there is no clamav image for arm64).
⚠️ Warning: Do not use the symbols @
and :
in your passwords. These symbols are used to build database connection strings. You will experience issues when using these symbols!
Now copy the provided yaml file to a compose.yaml file by running cp latest.yml compose.yaml
.
Now you should be ready to go with sudo docker compose up
.
Docker profiles
The default profile of latest.yml
only provide the minimum necessary services: nextcloud, database, redis and apache. To get optional services collabora, talk, talk-recording, clamav, imaginary or fulltextsearch use additional arguments for each of them, for example --profile collabora
. (Note: there is no clamav image for arm64).
For a complete all-in-one with collabora use sudo docker compose --profile collabora --profile talk --profile talk-recording --profile clamav --profile imaginary --profile fulltextsearch up
. (Note: there is no clamav image for arm64).
How to update?
Since the AIO containers may change in the future, it is highly recommended to strictly follow the following procedure whenever you want to upgrade your containers.
- If your previous copy of
sample.conf
is namedmy.conf
, runmv -vn my.conf .env
in order to rename the file to.env
. - Run
sudo docker compose down
to stop all running containers - Back up all important files and folders
- If your compose file is still named
docker-compose.yml
rename it tocompose.yaml
by runningmv -vn docker-compose.yml compose.yaml
- Run
git pull
in order to get the updated yaml files from the repository. Now bring yourcompose.yaml
file up-to-date with the updated one from the repository. You can usediff compose.yaml latest.yml
for comparing. ⚠️ Please note: Starting with AIO v5.1.0, ipv6 networking will be enabled by default, so make sure to either enable it first by following steps 1 and 2 of https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/blob/main/docker-ipv6-support.md and then proceed with the steps below or disable ipv6 networking by editing the compose.yaml file and removing ipv6 from the network. - Also have a look at the
sample.conf
if any variable was added or renamed and add that to your conf file as well. Here may help the diff command as well. - After the file update was successful, simply run
sudo docker compose pull
to pull the new images. - At the end run
sudo docker compose up
in order to start and update the containers with the new configuration.
FAQ
Backup and restore?
If you leave NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR
in your conf file at the default value of nextcloud_aio_nextcloud_data
and don't modify the yaml file, all data will be stored inside docker volumes which are on Linux by default located here: /var/lib/docker/volumes
. Simply backing up this location should be a valid backup solution. Then you can also easily restore in case something bad happens. However if you change NEXTCLOUD_DATADIR
to a path like /mnt/ncdata
, you obviously need to back up this location, too because the Nextcloud data will be stored there. The same applies to any change to the yaml file.
Obviously you also need to back up the conf file and the yaml file if you modified it.
