TLDR: I consistently fail to set up Nextcloud on Docker. Halp pls?
Hi all - please help out a fellow self-hoster, if you have experience with Nextcloud. I have tried several approaches but I fail at various steps. Rather than describe my woes, I hope that I could get a “known good” configuration from the community?
What I have:
- a homelab server and a NAS, wired to a dedicated switch using priority ports.
- the server is running Linux, Docker, and NPM proxy which takes care of domains and SSL certs.
What I want:
- a
docker-compose.ymlthat sets up Nextcloud without SSL. Just that. - ideally but optionally, the compose file might include Nextcloud office-components and other neat additions that you have found useful.
Your comments, ideas, and other input will be much appreciated!!
This is a completely valid option and one that more people should consider. You don’t have to selfhosted everything, even if you can. I actually prefer to support existing instances of stuff in a lot of cases.
I use https://disroot.org for email and cloud, and I’m more than happy to kick them a hundred bucks a year to help support a community. Same with https://fosstodon.org for Mastodon. I’m fully capable of self-hosting these things, but instead I actively choose to support them instead so that their services can be extended to more than just myself. I chose those two because they send excess funds upstream to FOSS projects. I’m proud to rep those domains.
