# 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. ## Contribute Pull requests are very welcome!
