# Installation
## Docker
Using docker is the easiest way!
If you already have docker up and running, all you need to start Widerhall is
1. Download the [Dockerfile](Dockerfile)
2. Build the image: `docker build -t widerhall /path-to-dockerfile/
3. Start a container:
```bash
docker run \
--name widerhall \
-d widerhall
```
You should now be able to go to http://<your machine>/
### Configuration, data persistence
To keep data after restarts of your container, you need to mount a volume into the container:
```bash
docker run \
--name widerhall \
-v /some/directory:/data
-d widerhall
```
Widerhall will create all persistent data in `/data`, resp. your volume:
* `widerhall.sqlite3` – this is the main database file. Keep it warm, keep it safe.
* `widerhall.config.json` – this is the main config file, where you can overload the default settings.
* `archive` – Stored mails will end up here.
Those files/directories will be created on the first start (or whenever you dropped them).
The config is structured as follows:
```json
{
"port":80,
"base_url":"https://widerhall.srsoftware.de",
"locations":{
"database":"/data/widerhall.sqlite3",
"configuration":"/data/widerhall.config.json",
"archive":"/data/archive",
"base":"/Widerhall"
}
}
```
* Alter the `base_url` to match your server settings.
* If you want the database to be stored somewhere else, alter the `database` string.
* If you change the `configuration` property, widerhall will overlaod it's configuation with whatever is found at the given location
* If you want the archive to be stored somewhere else, alter the `archive` string.
* `base` should point to the installation dir of Widerhall, which is _/Widerhall_ by default
### SSL termination
Widerhall tries to keep it simple. The built-in webserver does not know anything about SSL.
If you want to keep a secure webiste, run _Widerhall_ behind a reverse proxy, such as [nginx_proxy].
## Maven
Widerhall is a Java project built with Apache Maven.
If you have a recent installation of java (17) and maven on your system, you should be able to
1. get the sources: `git clone https://git.srsoftware.de/StephanRichter/Widerhall.git`
2. change to the downloaded dir: `cd Widerhall`
3. build the runnable jar: `mvn clean test compile assembly:single`
4. execute the jar: `java -jar target/*.jar`
# Translations
