How to install

Docker

Servas is available as an official Docker image.

The preferred way to use Servas is in combination with a MariaDB container.
You can find the example files here:

• docker-compose.yaml
• .env

The Docker image also supports SQLite. This variant does not need an additional database container.
You can find the example files here:

• docker-compose.yaml
• .env

Initial steps:

1. Create .env file in the directory where the docker-compose.yaml is located.
2. Copy the content of the example env file into the .env file.
3. Change the APP_URL.
4. Use a strong password for the DB_PASSWORD setting (only required if Servas is used with MariaDB).
5. Start the containers with docker-compose up -d.
6. Generate the application key:

docker exec -it servas php artisan key:generate --force
