vikunja-on-alpine

Just a few sentences about my vikunja setup.

First we setup our environment.

# add user vor vikunja
adduser vikunja --shell /sbin/nologin
# setup dirs
mkdir -p /opt/vikunja
mkdir -p /var/lib/vikunja
mkdir -p /etc/vikunja
chown vikunja:vikunja /var/lib/vikunja

Now we can download and install the binary as descripted here: https://vikunja.io/docs/installing But we will not link it to /usr/bin/. Copy the sample config inside the unziped dir.

cp /opt/vikunja/config.yml.sample /etc/vikunja/config.yml

To keep files inside /var/lib/vikunja we search for rootpath inside the config. It should become rootpath: /var/lib/vikunja Further edit it, so it fits your needs. See the docs here: https://vikunja.io/docs/config-options

After everything is set up it's time for our init script. Let's either download the initfile from init.d/ or copy it to a file namend /etc/init.d/vikunja. Don't forget to make it executeable.

chmod +x /etc/init.d/vikunja

It's time to start vikunja the first time.

rc-service vikunja start

If everything is working as espected you can enable vikunja to start it automaticaly.

rc-update add vikunja
