Installation

2016-01-24 20:15:50 -05:00
You can go multiple routes with setting up and running Paperless:
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
* The `docker route`_
* The `bare metal route`_
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
The recommended setup route is docker, since it takes care of all dependencies
for you.
The `docker route`_ is quick & easy.
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
The `bare metal route`_ is more complicated to setup but makes it easier
should you want to contribute some code back.

1. Install `Docker`_ and `docker-compose`_. [#compose]_
Add Dockerfile for application and documentation This commit adds a `Dockerfile` to the root of the project, accompanied by a `docker-compose.yml.example` for simplified deployment. The `Dockerfile` is agnostic to whether it will be the webserver, the consumer, or if it is run for a one-off command (i.e. creation of a superuser, migration of the database, document export, ...). The containers entrypoint is the `scripts/docker-entrypoint.sh` script. This script verifies that the required permissions are set, remaps the default users and/or groups id if required and installs additional languages if the user wishes to. After initialization, it analyzes the command the user supplied: - If the command starts with a slash, it is expected that the user wants to execute a binary file and the command will be executed without further intervention. (Using `exec` to effectively replace the started shell-script and not have any reaping-issues.) - If the command does not start with a slash, the command will be passed directly to the `manage.py` script without further modification. (Again using `exec`.) The default command is set to `--help`. If the user wants to execute a command that is not meant for `manage.py` but doesn't start with a slash, the Docker `--entrypoint` parameter can be used to circumvent the mechanics of `docker-entrypoint.sh`. Further information can be found in `docs/setup.rst` and in `docs/migrating.rst`. For additional convenience, a `Dockerfile` has been added to the `docs/` directory which allows for easy building and serving of the documentation. This is documented in `docs/requirements.rst`.

See the `Docker installation guide`_ on how to install the current
version of Docker for your operating system or Linux distribution of
choice. To get an up-to-date version of docker-compose, follow the
`docker-compose installation guide`_ if your package repository doesn't
include it.

2. Create a copy of ``docker-compose.yml.example`` as ``docker-compose.yml``
and a copy of ``docker-compose.env.example`` as ``docker-compose.env``.
You'll be editing both these files: taking a copy ensures that you can
``git pull`` to receive updates without risking merge conflicts with your
modified versions of the configuration files.
3. Modify ``docker-compose.yml`` to your preferences. You should change the path
to the consumption directory in this file. Find the line that specifies where
to mount the consumption directory:

4. Modify ``docker-compose.env``, following the comments in the file. The
most important change is to set ``USERMAP_UID`` and ``USERMAP_GID``
to the uid and gid of your user on the host system. This ensures that
both the docker container and you on the host machine have write access
to the consumption directory. If your UID and GID on the host system is
1000 (the default for the first normal user on most systems), it will
work out of the box without any modifications.

The `Dockerfile` is agnostic to whether it will be the webserver, the consumer, or if it is run for a one-off command (i.e. creation of a superuser, migration of the database, document export, ...). The containers entrypoint is the `scripts/docker-entrypoint.sh` script. This script verifies that the required permissions are set, remaps the default users and/or groups id if required and installs additional languages if the user wishes to. After initialization, it analyzes the command the user supplied: - If the command starts with a slash, it is expected that the user wants to execute a binary file and the command will be executed without further intervention. (Using `exec` to effectively replace the started shell-script and not have any reaping-issues.) - If the command does not start with a slash, the command will be passed directly to the `manage.py` script without further modification. (Again using `exec`.) The default command is set to `--help`. If the user wants to execute a command that is not meant for `manage.py` but doesn't start with a slash, the Docker `--entrypoint` parameter can be used to circumvent the mechanics of `docker-entrypoint.sh`. Further information can be found in `docs/setup.rst` and in `docs/migrating.rst`. For additional convenience, a `Dockerfile` has been added to the `docs/` directory which allows for easy building and serving of the documentation. This is documented in `docs/requirements.rst`.

Migration to paperless-ng
#########################
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
At its core, paperless-ng is still paperless and fully compatible. However, some
things have changed under the hood, so you need to adapt your setup depending on
how you installed paperless. The important things to keep in mind are as follows.
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
* Read the :ref:`paperless_changelog` and take note of breaking changes.
* It is recommended to use postgresql as the database now. The docker-compose
deployment will automatically create a postgresql instance and instruct
paperless to use it. This means that if you use the docker-compose script
with your current paperless media and data volumes and used the default
sqlite database, **it will not use your sqlite database and it may seem
as if your documents are gone**. You may use the provided
``docker-compose.yml.sqlite.example`` script, which does not use postgresql.
* The task scheduler of paperless, which is used to execute periodic tasks
such as email checking and maintenance, requires a `redis`_ message broker
instance. The docker-compose route takes care of that.
* The layout of the folder structure for your documents and data remains the
same.
* The frontend needs to be built from source. The docker image takes care of
that.

Migration to paperless-ng is then performed in a few simple steps:
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
1. Do a backup for two purposes: If something goes wrong, you still have your
data. Second, if you don't like paperless-ng, you can switch back to
paperless.
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
2. Replace the paperless source with paperless-ng. If you're using git, this
is done by:
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
.. code:: bash
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
$ git remote set-url origin https://github.com/jonaswinkler/paperless-ng
$ git pull
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
3. If you are using docker, copy ``docker-compose.yml.example`` to
``docker-compose.yml`` and ``docker-compose.env.example`` to
``docker-compose.env``. Make adjustments to these files as necessary.
See `docker route`_ for details.
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
4. Update paperless. See :ref:`administration-updating` for details.
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
5. Start paperless-ng.
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
.. code:: bash
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
$ docker-compose up
This will also migrate your database as usual. Verify by inspecting the
output that the migration was successfully executed. CTRL-C will then
gracefully stop the container. After that, you can start paperless-ng as
usuall with
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
.. code:: bash
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
$ docker-compose up -d
2020-11-13 18:46:19 +01:00
6. Paperless installed a permanent redirect to ``admin/`` in your browser. This
redirect is still in place and prevents access to the new UI. Clear
everything related to paperless in your browsers data in order to fix
this issue.
