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!!
A bit of a sidenote and definitely an unpopular opinion coming up… The nextcloud snap is perhaps the easiest and among the most stable ways to run NC. And I base this on my own experience, having installed and tested NC on numerous devices in several ways. You loose some tinkerability and the performance is nothing to write home about. And yes I know - snap no good - Canonical evil. That having been said, If stability and easy setup is what you want, it’s worth considering.
