Xenforo StP Repo

Github mirror: https://github.com/Myco-Systems/stp-xenforo-mirror/

Downloading and building (run as root or enable docker rootless)

curl -sSfL get.docker.com | bash
git clone https://git.myco.systems/stp/xenforo.git
cd xenforo

Copy .env.example to .env and fill in the relevant information, this should match the db you are importing from.

cp .env.example .env

Place xenforo files at xenforo/_data (or alter the directory in docker-compose.yml to match your Xenforo location) mysql can be pointed anywhere, but you should have a persistent directory so you can enter the container and import your db.

docker compose build

Running

docker compose up -d 

To import your mysql db you need to move your .sql files into a location that the container is attached to then run docker exec -it <docker-container-id> /bin/bash > cd /var/lib/mysql (assuming this is the directory the container is attached to) > mariadb -u <username> -p <db-name> < <your-existing-db> enter your password and then get a coffee because any databases over 1 GB can take a while.

Restart the containers:

docker compose down && docker compose up

After that the nginx webserver will be running on port 8080, currently the expected behavior is for nginx to be behind a reverse proxy so either you can point the proxy at your-ip:8080 or you can alter the docker compose file to include traefik which can grab ssl certificates for you.
