NextcloudDocker

2020/12/18: A quick 'n dirty tutorial for getting nextcloud set up using portainer, docker, and nginx.

Portainer Stack docker-compose

• Remove ANY AND ALL TABS and replace with spaces. Always 2 spaces, never 1, or 3:

  version: '2'
  
  #volumes:
  #  nextcloud:
  #  mariadb:
  
  services:
    mariadb:
      image: mariadb
      container_name: mariadb
      command: --transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED --binlog-format=ROW
      restart: unless-stopped
      volumes:
        - mariadb:/var/lib/mysql
      environment:
        - TZ=America/Los_Angeles
        - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=(changeme)
        - MYSQL_PASSWORD=(changeme2)
        - MYSQL_DATABASE=nextcloud
        - MYSQL_USER=nextcloud
  
    app:
      image: nextcloud
      container_name: nextcloud
      ports:
        - (port on host):80
      links:
        - mariadb
      volumes:
        - nextcloud:/var/www/html
      environment:
        - TZ=America/Los_Angeles
        - trusted_domains=(ip_address of portainer host, no http/https) (url, no http/https) (url, no http/https etc...)
      restart: unless-stopped

ALLOW TRUSTED DOMAINS

• Enter in to the nextcloud container console:

  apt-get update
  apt-get install nano
  nano /var/www/html/config/config.php

  array (
    0 => '(url, no http/https)',
  ),

ENABLE SMB/CIFS in Nextcloud:

• Enter in to the nextcloud container console:

  apt-get update && apt-get install smbclient

ENABLE TALK:

• Enter in to the nextcloud container console:

  nano /var/www/html/config/config.php
