# libre.sh [](#backers) [](#sponsors) ## Introduction A ecosystem that is aimed at hosting free software \o/ We are working on bootstrapping an ecosystem of tools to facilitate the hosting of free software. Think of it as - [ISPconfig](https://www.ispconfig.org/) - FLOSS [cpanel](https://www.cpanel.net/products/) - [cloudron](https://cloudron.io/) with email for [kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/). This ecosystem can be deployed on [Raspberries](https://kubecloud.io/setting-up-a-kubernetes-1-11-raspberry-pi-cluster-using-kubeadm-952bbda329c8) or on popular cloud providers and scale globally or anything in between. We can affirm that it scales globally because it is based on kubernetes, a tool developped from the experience of Google hosting containers at scale. ## Installation [](https://fosdem.org/2017/schedule/event/libre_sh/) To install it, follow the video above and instructions in `INSTALL.md`. ### What is libre.sh libre.sh is a little framework to host Docker. It is simple and modular and respect the convention over configuration paradigm. This is aimed at Hosters to manage a huge amount of different web application, and a quantity of domain names related with emails and so on. It is currently installed at 3 different hosters in production and hosting ~20 different web applications, with ~500 containers. Once well installed, in one bash command, you'll be able to: - buy a domain name - configure DNS for it - configure email for it - configure dkim for that domain - configure dmarc for that domain - configure autoconfig for that domain - install and start a web application on that domain (WordPress, Nextcloud, piwik...) - provision a TLS cert on that domain Amazing, right? ### Modular The PaaS is really modular, that's why it contains the strict necessary, then you'll probably want to add `system` modules or `applications`. It contains 2 [unit-files](https://github.com/indiehosters/LibrePaaS/tree/master/unit-files) to manage system modules and applications, start them at boot, and load the appropriate environment. ### Support You can use the following channels to request community support: - [mailinglist/forum](https://forum.indie.host/t/about-the-libre-sh-category/71) - [chat](https://riot.allmende.io/#/room/#libre.sh:matrix.allmende.io) For paid support, just send an inquiry to support@libre.sh. All of this is hosted by libre.sh :) ## System modules Here is a list of modules supported: - https proxy: - [HAProxy](https://github.com/indiehosters/haproxy) - [Nginx](https://github.com/indiehosters/nginx) - [monitoring](https://github.com/indiehosters/monitoring) - [git-puller](https://github.com/indiehosters/git-puller) - [backups](https://github.com/indiehosters/backups) Go to their respective page for more details. ### To install and start a module: ``` cd /system/ git clone module cd module libre enable libre start ``` ## Applications ### Installation To install application `wordpress` on `example.org`, first make point example.org to your server IP, and then, just run: ``` libre provision -a github.com/indiehosters/wordpress -u example.org -s ``` Run `libre provision` for more details on the capabilities of the script. ## To debug a module or an application: ``` libre ps libre logs -f --tail=100 libre stop libre restart ``` ## Contributing If you have any issue (something not working, missing doc), please do report an issue here! Thanks This system is used in production at [IndieHosters](https://indiehosters.net/) so it is maintained. If you use it, please tell us, and we'll be really happy to update this README! You can help us by: - starring this project - sending us a thanks email - reporting bugs - writing documentation/blog on how you got up and running in 5mins - writing more documentation - sending us cake :) We loove cake! ## Contributors This project exists thanks to all the people who contribute.
