How to install SimpleLogin on OpenSUSE Latest

SimpleLogin is an open-source email alias solution that protects your online privacy. Here is a step-by-step guide to install SimpleLogin on OpenSUSE Latest.

Prerequisites

You'll need a user account with sudo access on your OpenSUSE system.

Step 1: Install Docker

SimpleLogin can be installed as a Docker container, so you need to install Docker on your OpenSUSE system. Docker is available in the OpenSUSE official repositories, so you can install it using the zypper package manager:

sudo zypper install docker

After the installation, start the Docker daemon:

sudo systemctl start docker

Add your user to the docker group to avoid using sudo each time you run a Docker command:

sudo usermod -aG docker username

Replace username with your actual username.

Step 2: Pull the SimpleLogin Docker image

Pull the SimpleLogin Docker image from Docker Hub using the following command:

docker pull simplelogin/app

This will download the latest SimpleLogin image to your system.

Step 3: Run the SimpleLogin Docker container

To run the SimpleLogin Docker container, execute the following command:

docker run -d \
    --name simplelogin \
    --restart always \
    -p 80:80 \
    -p 443:443 \
    -v ~/simplelogin:/app \
    simplelogin/app

This command will create a Docker container called simplelogin, bind it to the host's ports 80 and 443, and mount the ~/simplelogin directory in the container's /app directory. The -d flag tells Docker to run the container in detached mode, and the --restart always flag specifies that Docker should automatically start the container on system reboot.

Step 4: Configure SimpleLogin

Open your web browser and navigate to https://your-server-ip. If you don't have a domain name or a public IP address, use your server's local IP address. You should see the SimpleLogin setup page.

Follow the setup wizard to configure SimpleLogin. You'll need to set up a database, create an admin account, and configure your email settings. Once you've completed the setup, you can start using SimpleLogin.
