Installing TrashPoss using Podman and Quadlet
Quadlet is a feature of Podman that is kind of like Docker Compose, but is better integrated with systemd, just like whole Podman.
Requirements
- Podman 4.4+ with aardvark
- Git with LFS installed (if building your own images)
Preparations
Getting needed files
If you want to use prebuilt images:
GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 git clone https://iceshrimp.dev/Crimekillz/trashposs.git --depth=1
mkdir -p $HOME/.config/containers/systemd
cp "trashposs/docs/examples/Podman (quadlet)"/* $HOME/.config/containers/systemd
Tweak quadlet files and change the image tag in $HOME/.config/containers/systemd/trashposs-web.container
from latest
to dev
or pre
if desired, and run docs/examples/Podman\ \(quadlet\)/volume-dir-creation.sh
.
If you want to build your own images:
git lfs install
git clone https://iceshrimp.dev/Crimekillz/trashposs.git
mkdir -p $HOME/.config/containers/systemd
cp "trashposs/docs/examples/Podman (quadlet)"/* $HOME/.config/containers/systemd
Tweak quadlet files if needed, change content of Image:
line in $HOME/.config/containers/systemd/trashposs-web.container
to Image: localhost/crimekillz/trashposs:latest
, and run docs/examples/Podman\ \(quadlet\)/volume-dir-creation.sh
.
.config
Edit .config/docker.env
and fill it with the database credentials you want.
Edit .config/default.yml
and:
- Replace example database credentials with the ones you entered in
.config/docker.env
- Change other configuration
Installation and first start
Choose a method, whether you chose to build the image yourself or not.
Pulling the image
podman pull $(grep -F "Image=" $HOME/.config/containers/systemd/trashposs-web.container | cut -d= -f2)
systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user start trashposs-web.service
Building the image
Enter TrashPoss repo and run:
podman build . -t $(grep -F "Image=" $HOME/.config/containers/systemd/trashposs-web.container | cut -d= -f2) --ulimit nofile=16384:16384
systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user start trashposs-web.service
Starting TrashPoss automatically
Run sudo loginctl enable-linger [user]
and TrashPoss will start automatically on boot. You don't need to, and in fact cannot enable Podman-generated systemd services.
Updating TrashPoss
Pulling the image
podman pull $(grep -F "Image=" $HOME/.config/containers/systemd/trashposs-web.container | cut -d= -f2)
systemctl --user restart trashposs-web.service
Building the image
## Run git stash commands only if you have uncommitted changes
git stash
git pull
git stash pop
podman build . -t $(grep -F "Image=" $HOME/.config/containers/systemd/trashposs-web.container | cut -d= -f2) --ulimit nofile=16384:16384
systemctl --user restart trashposs-web.service
Post-install
If you are running TrashPoss on a system with more than one CPU thread, you might want to set the clusterLimit
config option to about half of your thread count, depending on your system configuration. Please note that each worker requires around 10 PostgreSQL connections, so be sure to set max_connections
appropriately. To do this, change max_connections=n
line in db/postgresql.conf
, with n
being (10 * no_workers) + 10
, and run systemctl --user restart trashposs-db trashposs-web
.
