bewCloud

This is the bewCloud app built using Fresh and deployed using docker compose.

If you're looking for the desktop sync app, it's at bewcloud-desktop.

If you're looking for the mobile app, it's at bewcloud-mobile.

Self-host it!

Buy managed cloud (1 year)

Buy managed cloud (1 month)

Or, to run on your own machine, start with these commands:

mkdir data-files data-radicale radicale-config # local directories for storing user-uploaded files, radicale data, and radicale config (these last two are necessary only if you're using CalDav/CardDav/Contacts)

Now, download/copy the following configuration files (and tweak their contents as necessary, though no changes should yield a working β€” but very unsafe β€” setup):

Finally, run these commands:

docker compose up -d # makes the app available at http://localhost:8000
docker compose run --rm website bash -c "cd /app && make migrate-db" # initializes/updates the database (only needs to be executed the first time and on any data updates)

Note

If you run into permission issues, you can try running sudo chown -R 1993:1993 data-files to fix them.

1993:1993 above comes from deno's docker image where 1993 is the default user id in it. It might change in the future since I don't control it.

If you're interested in building/contributing (or just running the app locally), check the Development section below.

See the Community Links section for alternative ways of running bewCloud yourself.

Important

Even with signups disabled (config.auth.allowSignups=false), the first signup will work and become an admin.

Requirements

Important

Don't forget to set up your .env file based on .env.sample. Don't forget to set up your bewcloud.config.ts file based on bewcloud.config.sample.ts.

  • This was tested with Deno's version stated in the .dvmrc file, though other versions may work.
  • For the postgres dependency (used when running locally or in CI), you should have Docker and docker compose installed.

Commands

docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up # (optional) runs docker with postgres, locally
make migrate-db # runs any missing database migrations
make start # runs the app
make format # (optional) formats the code (if you're interested in contributing)
make test # (optional) runs tests (if you're interested in contributing)

Other less-used commands (mostly for development)

make exec-db # runs psql inside the postgres container, useful for running direct development queries like `DROP DATABASE "bewcloud"; CREATE DATABASE "bewcloud";`
make build # generates all static files for production deploy
