Misskey Setup and Installation Guide
================================================================
We thank you for your interest in setting up your Misskey server!
This guide describes how to install and setup Misskey.
[Japanese version also available - 日本語版もあります](./setup.ja.md)
----------------------------------------------------------------
*1.* Create Misskey user
----------------------------------------------------------------
Running misskey as root is not a good idea so we create a user for that.
In debian for exemple :
```
adduser --disabled-password --disabled-login misskey
```
*2.* Install dependencies
----------------------------------------------------------------
Please install and setup these softwares:
#### Dependencies :package:
* **[Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/)** >= 11.7.0
* **[PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org/)** >= 10
* **[Redis](https://redis.io/)**
##### Optional
* [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/) *Optional but recommended for security reason. If you won't install it, use `npx yarn` instead of `yarn`.*
* [Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/) - required to enable the search feature
* [FFmpeg](https://www.ffmpeg.org/)
*3.* Install Misskey
----------------------------------------------------------------
1. Connect to misskey user.
`su - misskey`
2. Clone the misskey repo from master branch.
`git clone -b master git://github.com/syuilo/misskey.git`
3. Navigate to misskey directory
`cd misskey`
4. Checkout to the [latest release](https://github.com/syuilo/misskey/releases/latest)
`git checkout master`
5. Install misskey dependencies.
`yarn`
*4.* Configure Misskey
----------------------------------------------------------------
1. Copy the `.config/example.yml` and rename it to `default.yml`.
`cp .config/example.yml .config/default.yml`
2. Edit `default.yml`
*5.* Build Misskey
----------------------------------------------------------------
Build misskey with the following:
`NODE_ENV=production yarn build`
If you're on Debian, you will need to install the `build-essential`, `python` package.
If you're still encountering errors about some modules, use node-gyp:
1. `npx node-gyp configure`
2. `npx node-gyp build`
3. `NODE_ENV=production yarn build`
*6.* Init DB
----------------------------------------------------------------
``` shell
yarn run init
```
*7.* That is it.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Well done! Now, you have an environment that run to Misskey.
### Launch normally
Just `NODE_ENV=production npm start`. GLHF!
### Launch with systemd
1. Create a systemd service here
`/etc/systemd/system/misskey.service`
2. Edit it, and paste this and save:
```
[Unit]
Description=Misskey daemon
[Service]
Type=simple
User=misskey
ExecStart=/usr/bin/npm start
WorkingDirectory=/home/misskey/misskey
Environment="NODE_ENV=production"
TimeoutSec=60
StandardOutput=syslog
StandardError=syslog
SyslogIdentifier=misskey
Restart=always
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```
3. Reload systemd and enable the misskey service.
`systemctl daemon-reload ; systemctl enable misskey`
4. Start the misskey service.
`systemctl start misskey`
You can check if the service is running with `systemctl status misskey`.
### How to update your Misskey server to the latest version
1. `git checkout master`
2. `git pull`
3. `yarn install`
4. `NODE_ENV=production yarn build`
5. `yarn migrate`
6. Restart your Misskey process to apply changes
7. Enjoy
If you encounter any problems with updating, please try the following:
1. `yarn clean` or `yarn cleanall`
2. Retry update (Don't forget `yarn install`
