-# nextcloud
-Nextcloud application for IndieHosters
+# Nextcloud
+
+# How to use this image
+
+The easiest is to use our `docker-compose.yml`.
+
+Make sure you have [docker-compose](http://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) installed. And then:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/indiehosters/nextcloud.git
+cd pnextcloud
+MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=mystrongpassword docker-compose up
+```
+
+You can now access your instance on the port 80 of the IP of your machine (not recommended for production).
+
+## Access it from Internet
+
+We recommend the usage of SSL, so the easiest is to use a TLS capable reverse proxy.
+Here are 2 examples:
+
+ - [haproxy](https://github.com/indiehosters/haproxy)
+ - [nginx](https://github.com/indiehosters/nginx)
+
+You can also modify manually the nginx configuration file and map the TLS port of the host to the container.
+
+## Installation
+
+Once started, you'll arrive at the configuration wizard.
+At the `Database Setup` step, please enter the following:
+
+  -  Database Server: `db`
+  -  Login: `root`
+  -  Password: MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD
+  -  Database Name: nextcloud (or you can choose)
+ 
+And leave the rest as default.
+
+Then you can continue the installation with the super user.
+
+## Backup
+
+In order to backup, just run the `./pre-backup` script. And copy all the data to a safe place.
