helm repo add zer0tonin https://zer0tonin.github.io/helm-charts/
helm install mikochi zer0tonin/mikochi \
--version 1.10.0 --set mikochi.username=zer0tonin \
--set mikochi.password=my_super_password --set persistence.enabled=true

Debian / Ubuntu / Mint

Install the app using a .deb package from the latest release.

wget -c https://github.com/zer0tonin/Mikochi/releases/download/1.10.0/mikochi-1.10.0-linux-amd64.deb

sudo chmod +x mikochi-1.10.0-linux-amd64.deb
sudo apt install mikochi-1.10.0-linux-amd64.deb
sudo mkdir /data

PASSWORD=horsebatterysomething mikochi

Fedora / Red Hat / CentOS

Install the app using a .rpm package from the latest release.

wget -c https://github.com/zer0tonin/Mikochi/releases/download/1.10.0/mikochi-1.10.0-linux-amd64.rpm

sudo chmod +x mikochi-1.10.0-linux-amd64.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh mikochi-1.10.0-linux-amd64.rpm
sudo mkdir /data

PASSWORD=horsebatterysomething mikochi

Binary

Launch the app using a pre-compiled binary from the latest release:

wget -c https://github.com/zer0tonin/Mikochi/releases/download/1.10.0/mikochi-1.10.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz -O - | tar -xz

sudo mkdir /data
sudo mkdir /usr/share/mikochi
sudo mv ./mikochi-1.10.0/mikochi /usr/bin/mikochi
sudo mv ./mikochi-1.10.0/static /usr/share/mikochi/static

PASSWORD=horsebatterysomething mikochi

Configuration

Mikochi is configured using environment variables

Key Description Default
HOST The ip:port mikochi will listen on 0.0.0.0:80
DATA_DIR The directory accessed by mikochi /data
JWT_SECRET A secret string for jwt validation [Random]
USERNAME The username to login with root
PASSWORD The password to login with pass
CERT_CA The path to a TLS certificate null
CERT_KEY The path to the key associated with CERT_CA null
NO_AUTH If true, disables all authentication false
GZIP If true, enables gzip compression false
FRONTEND_FILES The location of the frontend static files /usr/share/mikochi/static

Note: it is recommended to not manually set JWT_SECRET, as getting a new randomly generated secret everytime when mikochi starts let's you invalidate authentication tokens by restarting the process.

Launching the development environment

The development environment and build pipeline rely on Docker/docker-compose.

Run the dockerized development environment with:

make dev

It will start a frontend container (listening on 5000), a backend container (listening on 4000) and an nginx to wire both (listening on 8080).
