 OwnCloud v10.15.0

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. 

 Volumes 

 

 Persistent Data 

 This is where the service will store its own application data and ensures we can quickly update the service image. 

 Ensure your user has permissions to access the folder. 

 

 

 Media & Documents Folders 

 OwnCloud will need access to the folders where you store your media and document files.  This will allow you to share them through the OwnCloud files and sharing app. 

 Ensure your user has permissions to access the folder. 

 

 

 Environment 

 General 

 

 TZ 

 This is the current time zone formatted using the tz database. 

 For example: America/Vancouver 

 

 

 PUID 

 This is the numeric ID of the user account on Debian.  If you are unsure, open a terminal and run: 

 id -u 

 

 

 PGID 

 This is the numeric ID of the user account's group on Debian.  If you are unsure, open a terminal and run: 

 id -g 

 

 

 OwnCloud 

 

 OWNCLOUD_TRUSTED_DOMAINS 

 This is the full domain and subdomain name that will be used to access this instance from the internet, as well as the server's local IP address if you want OwnCloud to be accessible locally.  They must be comma separated. 

 For example:  192.168.68.100, owncloud.example.com 

 

 

 OWNCLOUD_DOMAIN 

 This is the full domain and subdomain name that will be used to access this instance from the internet. 

 For example: owncloud.example.com 

 

 

 OWNCLOUD_ADMIN_USERNAME 

 This is the username for the administrator account that will be used to log-in through the web interface. 

 This should be an easy-to-remember user name. 

 

 

 Database 

 

 DB_USERNAME 

 This is the username to be used for logging into the database. 

 For example: owncloud_admin 

 

 

 Passwords 

 Keep these securely stored in a password manager, such as VaultWarden . 

 

 DB_ROOT_PASS 

 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; echo 

 This pulls a random string from the ' urandom ' device, removes unwanted characters and trim it to an appropriate length. 

 

 

 DB_USER_PASS 

 This is the password that will be used for user 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; echo 

 This pulls a random string from the ' urandom ' device, removes unwanted characters and trim it to an appropriate length. 

 

 

 OWNCLOUD_ADMIN_PASSWORD 

 This is the password for the administrator account that will be used within the web interface. 

 It is important to use secure passphrase that is easy-to-remember.

Installation
The service can be installed through the Portainer web interface.

Updating
Backup Data and Re-Deploy the Stack 

 OwnCloud has been optimized for running in Docker and will automatically migrate your database when a new version is installed.   

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