-====== BookStack ======
-**Note:** since i don't use this service anymore, this page might be not updated.
-[[https://www.bookstackapp.com|BookStack]] is a very cool kind of Wiki / knowledge / publishing tool. It's Open Source, very polished and also very simple to use.
-I don't use Bookstack because i don't really need it, [[services:silverbullet|Silverbullet]] is just enough for my needs, even if it's a different stuff.
-===== Installation =====
-Installing BookStack can be done on bare-metal with your existing PHP / MariaDB stack or use a pre-built container. I choose to go with the container because i find it easier than properly segregate yet another PHP installation.
-BookStack do not provide container images themselves, but they rely on external providers and i choose the [[https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-bookstack|Linux Server guys]] because they have a great reputation and maintain lots of well polished images.
-Of course i will show you how to install it via [[gentoo:containers|Podman on Gentoo]] instead of Docker, to go fully rootless and secure.
-As usual, you need to create a dedicated user and create the data folder:
-<code bash>
-useradd -d /data/daemons/bookstack -m bookstack
-mkdir /data/bookstack
-chown bookstack:bookstack /data/bookstack
-</code>
-As user **bookstack** create the compose yaml file:
-<file docker-compose.yml>

-A few notes: you //could// use PUID / PGID but it's not really working, so i commented them out. They work for docker anyway, but podman is rootless by default, so there is no real reason to use them.
-Of course choose  proper available port (6875) and set the correct URL under APP_URL as well.
-===== Reverse Proxy =====
-As usual, you should access the service only via Reverse Proxy (see [[selfhost:nginx|The Reverse Proxy concept]]), the following NGINX configuration file will be enough:
-<file - bookstack.conf>
-location = /bookstack {
-        return 301 https://$host/bookstack/;
-}
-location /bookstack/ {
-    proxy_pass         http://127.0.0.1:6875/;
-    proxy_redirect     off;
-    proxy_set_header   Host $host;
-    proxy_set_header   X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
-    proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
-    proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-Host $server_name;
-}
-</file>
