About

The official docker version of LinkStack. This docker image is a simple to set up solution, containing everything you need to run LinkStack.

The docker version of LinkStack retains all the features and customization options of the original version.

This docker is based on Alpine Linux, a Linux distribution designed to be small, simple and secure. The web server is running Apache2, a free and open-source cross-platform web server software. The docker comes with PHP 8.2 for high compatibility and performance.

Using the docker is as simple as pulling and deploying.

Persistent storage

Persistent storage for docker containers is storage that is not lost when the container is stopped or removed.

This is advantageous since it means that data may be saved even if the container is removed. This is especially crucial when dealing with data that must be retained throughout restarts, such as a database.

All files important to run LinkStack are stored in the "htdocs" folder found in the root directory of your docker container.

We recommend mounting that entire folder to an external volume.

<br>

However, some user may prefer to preserve only individual files. <br> Expand the details section below to read more about this:

<details> If you wish to save only selective files, you may save the following files and folders:
/htdocs/.env
/htdocs/database/database.sqlite
/htdocs/config/advanced-config.php
/htdocs/assets/linkstack/images/avatar.png
/htdocs/themes (folder)
/htdocs/assets/img (folder)

This might change with future releases.

Reverse Proxy

NGINX:

Below is an example NGINX setup for a reverse proxy.<br> <ins>Make sure to use HTTPS to access your container to avoid mixed content errors</ins>

<pre> server { listen 443 ssl; listen [::]:443 ssl; listen 80; listen [::]:80; server_name your.domain.name; location / { # Replace with the IP address and port number of your Docker container. proxy_pass https://127.0.0.1:443; 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-Proto https; proxy_set_header X-VerifiedViaNginx yes; proxy_read_timeout 60; proxy_connect_timeout 60; proxy_redirect off; # Specific for websockets: force the use of HTTP/1.1 and set the Upgrade header proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade'; proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme; # Fixes Mixed Content errors. add_header 'Content-Security-Policy' 'upgrade-insecure-requests'; } } </pre> <br> <br>
