# Download and Run
|
|
|
|
You can install via zip or deb archives. Please see the
|
|
[prerequisites](@/docs/install/prereq.md) first.
|
|
|
|
## Using zip files
|
|
|
|
1. Download the two files:
|
|
- <a href="https://github.com/eikek/docspell/releases/download/v{{version()}}/docspell-restserver-{{version()}}.zip">docspell-restserver-{{version()}}.zip</a>
|
|
- <a href="https://github.com/eikek/docspell/releases/download/v{{version()}}/docspell-joex-{{version()}}.zip">docspell-joex-{{version()}}.zip</a>
|
|
2. Unzip both files:
|
|
``` bash
|
|
$ unzip docspell-*.zip
|
|
```
|
|
3. Open two terminal windows and navigate to the the directory
|
|
containing the zip files.
|
|
4. Start both components executing:
|
|
``` bash
|
|
$ ./docspell-restserver*/bin/docspell-restserver
|
|
```
|
|
in one terminal and
|
|
``` bash
|
|
$ ./docspell-joex*/bin/docspell-joex
|
|
```
|
|
in the other.
|
|
5. Point your browser to: <http://localhost:7880/app>
|
|
6. Register a new account, sign in and try it.
|
|
|
|
Note, that this setup doesn't include watching a directory nor
|
|
fulltext search. Using zip/deb files requires to take care of the
|
|
[prerequisites](@/docs/install/prereq.md) yourself.
|
|
|
|
The provided scripts in
|
|
[docspell-tools-{{version()}}.zip](https://github.com/eikek/docspell/releases/download/v{{version()}}/docspell-tools-{{version()}}.zip)
|
|
must be extracted and installed manually somewhere in your `$PATH`.
|
|
|
|
## Using deb files
|
|
|
|
Packages are also provided at the release page:
|
|
|
|
- [docspell-restserver_{{version()}}_all.deb](https://github.com/eikek/docspell/releases/download/v{{version()}}/docspell-restserver_{{version()}}_all.deb)
|
|
- [docspell-joex_{{version()}}_all.deb](https://github.com/eikek/docspell/releases/download/v{{version()}}/docspell-joex_{{version()}}_all.deb)
|
|
|
|
The DEB packages can be installed on Debian, or Debian based Distros:
|
|
|
|
``` bash
|
|
$ sudo dpkg -i docspell*.deb
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then the start scripts are in your `$PATH`. Run `docspell-restserver`
|
|
or `docspell-joex` from a terminal window.
|
|
|
|
The packages come with a systemd unit file that will be installed to
|
|
autostart the services.
|
|
|
|
The provided scripts in `docspell-tools-{{version()}}.zip` must be
|
|
extracted and installed manually somewhere in your `$PATH`. There are
|
|
no deb files provided.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Running
|
|
|
|
Run the start script (in the corresponding `bin/` directory when using
|
|
the zip files):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ ./docspell-restserver*/bin/docspell-restserver
|
|
$ ./docspell-joex*/bin/docspell-joex
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will startup both components using the default configuration.
|
|
Please refer to the [configuration page](@/docs/configure/_index.md)
|
|
for how to create a custom config file. Once you have your config
|
|
file, simply pass it as argument to the command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ ./docspell-restserver*/bin/docspell-restserver /path/to/server-config.conf
|
|
$ ./docspell-joex*/bin/docspell-joex /path/to/joex-config.conf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After starting the rest server, you can reach the web application
|
|
`http://localhost:7880/`.
|
|
|
|
You should be able to create a new account and sign in. When creating
|
|
a new account, use the same name for collective and user and then
|
|
login with this name.
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading
|
|
|
|
Since [downgrading](@/docs/install/downgrading.md) is not supported,
|
|
it is recommended to backup your database before upgrading. Should
|
|
something not work as expected, restore the database backup and go
|
|
back to the previous version.
|
|
|
|
When using the zip or deb files, either install the new deb files via
|
|
your package manager or download and unpack the new zip files. You
|
|
might want to have a look at the changelog, since it is sometimes
|
|
necessary to modify the config file.
|
|
|
|
## More
|
|
|
|
### Fulltext Search
|
|
|
|
Fulltext search is powered by [SOLR](https://solr.apache.org). You
|
|
need to install solr and create a core for docspell. Then cange the
|
|
solr url for both components (restserver and joex) accordingly. See
|
|
the relevant section in the [config
|
|
page](@/docs/configure/_index.md#full-text-search-solr).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Watching a directory
|
|
|
|
The [dsc](@/docs/tools/cli.md) tool with the `watch` subcommand can be
|
|
used for this. Using systemd or something similar, it is possible to
|
|
create a system service that runs the script in "watch mode".
