Looking over the install instructions and I already have docker/containers on my vps. Is there just a kbin container for use? I’m not getting the concept of symfony-docker. Is it just a docker with a stack in it already and you have to then pull kbin in?
My thought was to put a kbin instance up for my tribe to lessen the load on the kbin.social server.
If someone has a clue, I’ve got the candelabra. :grin:
It’s a multi-container application managed via Docker Compose.
I’m assuming you found the Docker Compose installation instructions here.
Essentially it pulls down the multiple containers required to run the site and orchestrates them for you.
I followed the installation instructions and got it up and running in about 30 minutes (I’m not sure why the theme looks slightly different; perhaps kbin.social is customized).
Right now I’m playing the waiting game to see if it eventually connects to other federated servers.
Let me know if you have any specific questions and I can probably point you in the right direction.
Being interested in running my own kbin instance for family and friends, how is it going for you? Does everything work as expected?
