Run `git checkout main` or `git checkout beta` to switch to the Main/Beta branches. ## ðŸ“Đ Install dependencies ```sh # nvm install 19 && nvm use 19 corepack enable corepack prepare pnpm@latest --activate # To build without TensorFlow, append --no-optional pnpm i # --no-optional ``` ### pm2 To install pm2 run: ``` npm i -g pm2 pm2 install pm2-logrotate ``` > **Note** > [`pm2-logrotate`](https://github.com/keymetrics/pm2-logrotate/blob/master/README.md) ensures that log files don't infinitely gather size, as Calckey produces a lot of logs. ## 🐘 Create database In PostgreSQL (`psql`), run the following command: ```sql CREATE DATABASE calckey WITH encoding = 'UTF8'; ``` or run the following from the command line: ```sh psql postgres -c "create database calckey with encoding = 'UTF8';" ``` In Calckey's directory, fill out the `db` section of `.config/default.yml` with the correct information, where the `db` key is `calckey`. ## 🔎 Set up search ### ðŸĶ” Sonic Sonic is better suited for self hosters with smaller deployments. It uses almost no resources, barely any any disk space, and is relatively fast. Follow sonic's [installation guide](https://github.com/valeriansaliou/sonic#installation) > **Note** > If you use IPv4: in Sonic's directory, edit the `config.cfg` file to change `inet` to `"0.0.0.0:1491"`. In Calckey's directory, fill out the `sonic` section of `.config/default.yml` with the correct information. ### Meilisearch Meilisearch is better suited for larger deployments. It's faster but uses far more resources and disk space. Follow Meilisearch's [quick start guide](https://www.meilisearch.com/docs/learn/getting_started/quick_start) In Calckey's directory, fill out the `meilisearch` section of `.config/default.yml` with the correct information. ### ElasticSearch Please don't use ElasticSearch unless you already have an ElasticSearch setup and want to continue using it for Calckey. ElasticSearch is slow, heavy, and offers very few benefits over Sonic/Meilisearch. ## 💅 Customize - To add custom CSS for all users, edit `./custom/assets/instance.css`. - To add static assets (such as images for the splash screen), place them in the `./custom/assets/` directory. They'll then be available on `https://yourserver.tld/static-assets/filename.ext`. - To add custom locales, place them in the `./custom/locales/` directory. If you name your custom locale the same as an existing locale, it will overwrite it. If you give it a unique name, it will be added to the list. Also make sure that the first part of the filename matches the locale you're basing it on. (Example: `en-FOO.yml`) - To add custom error images, place them in the `./custom/assets/badges` directory, replacing the files already there. - To add custom sounds, place only mp3 files in the `./custom/assets/sounds` directory. - To update custom assets without rebuilding, just run `pnpm run gulp`. ## 🧑‍🔎 Configuring a new server - Run `cp .config/example.yml .config/default.yml` - Edit `.config/default.yml`, making sure to fill out required fields. - Also copy and edit `.config/docker_example.env` to `.config/docker.env` if you're using Docker. ## 🚚 Migrating from Misskey to Calckey For migrating from Misskey v13, Misskey v12, and Foundkey, read [this document](https://codeberg.org/calckey/calckey/src/branch/develop/docs/migrate.md). ## 🌐 Web proxy ### 🍀 Nginx (recommended) - Run `sudo cp ./calckey.nginx.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/ && cd /etc/nginx/sites-available/` - Edit `calckey.nginx.conf` to reflect your server properly - Run `sudo ln -s ./calckey.nginx.conf ../sites-enabled/calckey.nginx.conf` - Run `sudo nginx -t` to validate that the config is valid, then restart the NGINX service. ### ðŸĶĶ Caddy - Add the following block to your `Caddyfile`, replacing `example.tld` with your own domain: ```caddy example.tld { reverse_proxy http://127.0.0.1:3000 } ``` - Reload your caddy configuration ### ðŸŠķ Apache > **Warning** > Apache has some known problems with Calckey. Only use it if you have to. - Run `sudo cp ./calckey.apache.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/ && cd /etc/apache2/sites-available/` - Edit `calckey.apache.conf` to reflect your server properly - Run `sudo a2ensite calckey.apache` to enable the site - Run `sudo service apache2 restart` to reload apache2 configuration ## 🚀 Build and launch! ### ðŸĒ NodeJS + pm2 #### `git pull` and run these steps to update Calckey in the future! ```sh # git pull pnpm install NODE_ENV=production pnpm run build && pnpm run migrate pm2 start "NODE_ENV=production pnpm run start" --name Calckey ``` ## 😉 Tips & Tricks - When editing the config file, please don't fill out the settings at the bottom. They're designed *only* for managed hosting, not self hosting. Those settings are much better off being set in Calckey's control panel. - Port 3000 (used in the default config) might be already used on your server for something else. To find an open port for Calckey, run `for p in {3000..4000}; do ss -tlnH | tr -s ' ' | cut -d" " -sf4 | grep -q "${p}$" || echo "${p}"; done | head -n 1`. Replace 3000 with the minimum port and 4000 with the maximum port if you need it. - I'd recommend you use a S3 Bucket/CDN for Object Storage, especially if you use Docker. - I'd ***strongly*** recommend against using CloudFlare, but if you do, make sure to turn code minification off. - For push notifications, run `npx web-push generate-vapid-keys`, then put the public and private keys into Control Panel > General > ServiceWorker. - For translations, make a [DeepL](https://deepl.com) account and generate an API key, then put it into Control Panel > General > DeepL Translation. - To add another admin account: - Go to the user's page > 3 Dots > About > Moderation > turn on "Moderator" - Go back to Overview > click the clipboard icon next to the ID - Run `psql -d calckey` (or whatever the database name is) - Run `UPDATE "user" SET "isAdmin" = true WHERE id='999999';` (replace `999999` with the copied ID) - Restart your Calckey server
