Setup & Configuration
We need to install the service through Portainer and configure any necessary settings.
Preparation
There are some things we need to do in preparation to install this service.
Environment
General
DOMAIN
This is the full domain and sub-domain that the service will be available at.
For example: collabora.example.com
ALIASGROUP1
This is the full domain and sub-domain for your OwnCloud installation, allowing you to integrate the two services.
For example: owncloud.example.com
USERNAME
This is the username used by the OwnCloud service to connect with the Collabora service.
For example: owncloud
Passwords
Keep these securely stored in a password manager, such as VaultWarden.
PASSWORD
This is the password that will be used for root access to the database.
It is important to use secure, randomly generated password.
You can use a random alphanumeric string from a password manager, or open the terminal and run the command:
tr -dc 'A-Za-z0-9!"#$%&'\''()*+,-./:;<=>?@[\]^_`{|}~' </dev/urandom | head -c 32; echoThis pulls a random string from the 'urandom' device, removes unwanted characters and trim it to an appropriate length.
Installation
The service can be installed through the Portainer web interface.

This allows you to re-deploy the stack through Portainer to download the latest updates.
