Docker installation

Docker is the easiest way to get a funkwhale instance up and running.

First, ensure you have Docker and docker-compose installed.

Download the sample docker-compose file:

mkdir -p /srv/funkwhale
cd /srv/funkwhale
curl -L -o docker-compose.yml "https://code.eliotberriot.com/funkwhale/funkwhale/raw/master/deploy/docker-compose.yml"

Create your env file:

curl -L -o .env "https://code.eliotberriot.com/funkwhale/funkwhale/raw/master/deploy/env.prod.sample"

Ensure to edit it to match your needs (this file is heavily commented)

Then, you should be able to pull the required images:

docker-compose pull

Run the database container and the initial migrations:

docker-compose up -d postgres
docker-compose run --rm api python manage.py migrate

Create your admin user:

docker-compose run --rm api python manage.py createsuperuser

Then launch the whole thing:

docker-compose up -d

Now, you just need to setup the :ref:`frontend files <frontend-setup>`, and configure your :ref:`reverse-proxy <reverse-proxy-setup>`. Don't worry, it's quite easy.

About music acquisition

If you want to :doc:`import music located on the server </importing-music>`, you can put it in the data/music directory and it will become readable by the importer.
