Storing the state in s3

You'll an s3 compatible bucket, like backblaze, aws, cloudflare or any compatible provider. Litestream will restore the bucket in an emptyDir. Then during operation a litestream sidecar will live replicate the changes to s3.

Contents of manifest.yaml

• a Namespace for the project
• a ConfigMap containing litestream.yml config
  • replace $S3_ENDPOINT with your bucket config
• a StatefulSet containing
  • an initContainer to restore the sqlite db
  • a Pod with linkding + litestream official images
• a Service to expose the pods
  • I'm using tailscale annotations, replace these with traefik or your favorite ingress controller stuff.

Setup

$ export S3_ENDPOINT=<REPLACE ME>
$ export S3_BUCKET=<REPLACE ME>
$ export S3_PATH=<REPLACE ME>
$ export S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<REPLACE ME>
$ export S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<REPLACE ME>
$ envsubst <manifest.yaml | kubectl apply -f -
$ kubectl create secret -n linkding generic litestream-s3 \
    --from-literal=LITESTREAM_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID \
    --from-literal=LITESTREAM_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
