🚀 Download Setup

It is recommended to give priority to installing through the application market on the desktop and mobile, so that you can upgrade the version with one click in the future.

Installation Package

Docker Deployment

Overview

The easiest way to serve SiYuan on a server is to deploy it through Docker.

Image name

b3log/siyuan

Image URL

File structure

The overall program is located under

/opt/siyuan/

, which is basically the structure under the resources folder of the Electron installation package:

appearance: icon, theme, languages

guide: user guide document

stage: interface and static resources

kernel: kernel program

Entrypoint

The entry point is set when building the Docker image:

ENTRYPOINT ["/opt/siyuan/entrypoint.sh"]

. This script allows changing the

PUID

and

PGID

of the user that will run inside the container. This is especially relevant to solve permission issues when mounting directories from the host. The

PUID

(User ID) and

PGID

(Group ID) can be passed as environment variables, making it easier to ensure correct permissions when accessing host-mounted directories.

Use the following parameters when running the container with

docker run b3log/siyuan

:

--workspace

: Specifies the workspace folder path, mounted to the container via

-v

on the host

--accessAuthCode

: Specifies the access authorization code

More parameters can be found using

--help

. Here’s an example of a startup command with the new environment variables:

docker run -d -v workspace_dir_host:workspace_dir_container -p 6806:6806 -e PUID=1001 -e PGID=1002 b3log/siyuan --workspace=workspace_dir_container --accessAuthCode=xxx

PUID

: Custom user ID (optional, defaults to

1000

if not provided)

PGID

: Custom group ID (optional, defaults to

1000

if not provided)

workspace_dir_host

: The workspace folder path on the host

workspace_dir_container

: The path of the workspace folder in the container, as specified in

--workspace

In alternative, it's possible to set the path via the

SIYUAN_WORKSPACE_PATH

env variable. The commandline will always have the priority, if both are set

accessAuthCode

: Access authorization code (please

be sure to modify

, otherwise anyone can access your data)

In alternative, it's possible to set the auth code via the

SIYUAN_ACCESS_AUTH_CODE

env variable. The commandline will always have the priority, if both are set

To disable the Access authorization code set the env variable

SIYUAN_ACCESS_AUTH_CODE_BYPASS=true

To simplify things, it is recommended to configure the workspace folder path to be consistent on the host and container, such as having both

workspace_dir_host

and

workspace_dir_container

configured as

/siyuan/workspace

. The corresponding startup command would be:

docker run -d -v /siyuan/workspace:/siyuan/workspace -p 6806:6806 -e PUID=1001 -e PGID=1002 b3log/siyuan --workspace=/siyuan/workspace/ --accessAuthCode=xxx

Docker Compose

For users running Siyuan with Docker Compose, the environment variables

PUID

and

PGID

can be passed to customize the user and group IDs. Here's an example of a Docker Compose configuration:

version

:

"

3.9

"

services

:

main

:

image

:

b3log/siyuan

command

:

['--workspace=/siyuan/workspace/', '--accessAuthCode=${AuthCode}']

ports

: -

6806:6806

volumes

: -

/siyuan/workspace:/siyuan/workspace

restart

:

unless-stopped

environment

:

#

A list of time zone identifiers can be found at

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones

-

TZ=${YOUR_TIME_ZONE}

-

PUID=${YOUR_USER_PUID}

#

Customize user ID

-

PGID=${YOUR_USER_PGID}

#

Customize group ID

In this setup:

PUID

and

PGID

are set dynamically and passed to the container

If these variables are not provided, the default

1000

will be used

By specifying

PUID

and

PGID

in the environment, you avoid the need to explicitly set the

user

directive (

user: '1000:1000'

) in the compose file. The container will dynamically adjust the user and group based on these environment variables at startup.

User Permissions

In the image, the

entrypoint.sh

script ensures the creation of the

siyuan

user and group with the specified

PUID

and

PGID

. Therefore, when the host creates a workspace folder, pay attention to setting the user and group ownership of the folder to match the

PUID

and

PGID

you plan to use. For example:

chown -R 1001:1002 /siyuan/workspace

If you use custom

PUID

and

PGID

values, the entrypoint script will ensure that the correct user and group are created inside the container, and ownership of mounted volumes will be adjusted accordingly. There’s no need to manually pass

-u

in

docker run

or

docker-compose

as the environment variables will handle the customization.

Hidden port

Use NGINX reverse proxy to hide port 6806, please note:

Configure WebSocket reverse proxy

/ws

Note

Be sure to confirm the correctness of the mounted volume, otherwise the data will be lost after the container is deleted

Do not use URL rewriting for redirection, otherwise there may be problems with authentication, it is recommended to configure a reverse proxy

If you encounter permission issues, verify that the

PUID

and

PGID

environment variables match the ownership of the mounted directories on your host system

Limitations

Does not support desktop and mobile application connections, only supports use on browsers

Export to PDF, HTML and Word formats is not supported

Import Markdown file is not supported

Unraid Hosting

Unraid Deployment

Note: First run

chown -R 1000:1000 /mnt/user/appdata/siyuan

in the terminal

Template reference:

Web UI: 6806 Container Port: 6806 Container Path: /home/siyuan Host path: /mnt/user/appdata/siyuan PUID: 1000 PGID: 1000 Publish parameters: --accessAuthCode=******(Access authorization code)
