HRCloud2 is a self-hosted cloud storage solution that allows users to store, access, and share files from anywhere. This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install HRCloud2 on the latest version of Alpine Linux.
Before you start, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed:
Install docker and docker-compose using the Alpine package manager:
apk update && apk add docker docker-compose
Clone the HRCloud2 repository from Github using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/zelon88/HRCloud2.git
Navigate to the directory where HRCloud2 was cloned:
cd HRCloud2
Create a .env file in the project directory (HRCloud2) to store environment variables:
touch .env
Open the .env file using a text editor, and add the following details:
HR_DB_NAME=hrcloud2_db
HR_DB_USER=hrcloud2_user
HR_DB_PASS=hrcloud2_password
HR_DB_PORT=5432
HR_DB_HOST=database
HR_SECRET_KEY=YOUR_SECRET_KEY
HR_ALLOWED_HOSTS=*
HR_DEBUG=1
Replace the YOUR_SECRET_KEY value with a strong and secure secret key for your environment.
Start the HRCloud2 services using Docker Compose:
docker-compose up -d
After the services have started successfully, you should be able to access the HRCloud2 platform by visiting http://localhost:8000 in your web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed HRCloud2 on Alpine Linux. Now you can use HRCloud2 to store, access, and share files securely from anywhere.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
