Install Memo Notes via Docker Compose

Use this guide to setup and install Meemo with Docker Compose. See our review of Meemo.

Setup

1. Ensure Docker and Docker-Compose are installed

2. On your host machine, create the following files and directories inside a directory of your choice.

   # users file
   touch users.json
   # data and database directory
   mkdir data database
   # set ownership to map container user ID 1000
   chown 1000 users.json data database
   # set permissions
   chmod 600 users.json
   chmod 700 data database

3. Download docker-compose.yml on your host inside the same directory then modify it as you wish:

   wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qdm12/meemo/master/docker-compose.yml

4. Launch the MongoDB database and Meemo container with

   docker-compose up -d

5. You can check logs with

   docker-compose logs -f

6. Meemo is at localhost:3000 (depending on your mapped port in docker-compose.yml)

Configuration

We assume your Meemo container is named meemo in the following.

# List users
docker exec meemo ./meemo/admin users

# Add a user
docker exec meemo ./meemo/admin user-add -u yourUser -p yourPassword --display-name yourUser

# Edit a user
docker exec meemo ./meemo/admin user-edit -u yourUser -p yourPassword --display-name yourUser

# Remove a user
docker exec meemo ./meemo/admin user-del -u yourUser

All the changes are saved to users.json
