[[https://paperless-ngx.com|Paperless NGX]] ===== Installation ===== Paperless-NGX can be installed on bare-metal, but i find the container approach recomended. So first of all, as usual, create the dedicated user: <code bash> useradd -d /data/daemons/paperless -m paperless mkdir /data/paperless chown paperless:paperless /data/paperless </code> and, as user **paperless**, create the **/data/daemons/paperless/docker-compose.yml** file: <file - docker-compose.yml> network: - paperless-net networks: paperless-net: {} </file> Adapt the paths and the port to your needs (8089). Now pull it: <code bash> su - stirlingpdf podman compose pull </code> ===== Reverse Proxy ===== The following NGINX configuration file is the base for Stirling-PDF: <file - paperless.conf> location /paperless/ { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:xxxx; access_log off; client_max_body_size 200M; proxy_read_timeout 3600; } </file> Adapt the port to match the one in the docker compose. I also suggest to set a proper //client_max_body_size// to allow upload/download of big enough files, and also the //proxy_read_timeout// value. See [[selfhost:nginx|The Reverse Proxy concept]] ===== Autostart ===== To start it, and set it up on boot, as usual follow my indications [[gentoo:containers|Using Containers on Gentoo]], so link the **user-containers** init script: <code> ln -s /etc/init.d/user-containers /etc/init.d/user-containers.paperless </code> and create the following config file: <file - /etc/conf.d/user-containers.paperless> USER=paperless DESCRIPTION="The document manager" </file> Add the service to the default runlevel and start it now: <code bash> rc-update add user-containers.paperless default rc-service user-containers.paperless start </code>
