HRCloud2 is a personal cloud storage solution that is built on top of the open-source Nextcloud platform. This tutorial will guide you through the installation process of HRCloud2 on the latest Fedora CoreOS.
Before starting the installation process, you will need to make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
HRCloud2 is built using Docker containers, so the first step is to install Docker on the server. You can do this by running the following command:
$ sudo dnf install docker
Next, you will need to install Docker Compose, which is used to manage the HRCloud2 containers. You can do this by running the following commands:
$ sudo dnf install curl
$ sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
Clone the HRCloud2 repository to your server by running the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/zelon88/HRCloud2.git hrcloud2
This will create a directory named hrcloud2
in your current directory, which contains the HRCloud2 repository.
Before launching HRCloud2, you will need to configure some environment variables. Open up the .env
file located in the hrcloud2
directory and set the following values:
# HRCloud2 Settings
APP_HOSTNAME=<YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME>
TEMPLATE_NAME=hrcloud2
# Nextcloud Settings
NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_USER=<ADMIN_USERNAME>
NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_PASSWORD=<ADMIN_PASSWORD>
NEXTCLOUD_TRUSTED_DOMAINS=<YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME>
Replace <YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME>
with your server's domain name, <ADMIN_USERNAME>
with the desired administrator username, and <ADMIN_PASSWORD>
with the desired administrator password.
Once you have configured the environment variables, navigate to the hrcloud2
directory and launch HRCloud2 by running the following command:
$ sudo docker-compose up -d
This will launch HRCloud2 in the background and detach from the container.
If everything was successful, you should now be able to access HRCloud2 by navigating to https://<YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME>
in a web browser.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install HRCloud2 on the latest Fedora CoreOS. With HRCloud2, you can set up your own personal cloud storage solution that is fast, secure, and easy to use.
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!
