First off, I’m totally new here (Reddit refugee).
But I guess we will see an endless September after July 1st.
How can we (I?) create an “onboarding” server? or in my case: a lemmy server for (people interested in) programmimg.
Let’s say I have some (pick one — or all):
- digital ocean droplet (vps)
- herzner vps
- k8s cluster
- …you get the point
How do I get my foo.bar Lemmy server running?
- is there a
docker-compose.ymlor helm chart to get the services running on my droplet/cluster? - how do i connect my server to other lemmy servers in the fediverse?
- are moderation tools available, or do i have to build them on my own? (are there existing repos i can join, to prevent reinventing the wheel)
- is there documentation available for that? If not: on what repo can I make pull requests for improving the docs? (i like writing my documentation in markdown + “material for mkdocs” that generates the github/gitlab/whatever pages)
thanks in advance :thumbs-up:
I installed mine using the instructions here. I did run in to an issue with docker-compose, for which I submitted this pull request (assuming that PR is not merged by the time you clone the repo).
The documentation should answer most of your questions.
There’s official documentation for how to get up and running quickly using Docker here: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/install_docker.html
I used that as a reference for my own server’s setup (which is heavily modified appropriately for my own environment).
Officially https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html
There is also this https://github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy/tree/main
I rolled my own docker-compose.yml because I host other services using Caddy as well
