So, I worked hard on it and came up with this noob-proof tutorial on how to set up a Notesnook sync server with local file storage, getting inspiration from the provided docker-compose in the repository.\n\nThat's my way of giving back to the self-hosting community. I hope it can help some people.\n\n***\n\n## Overview\nThis guide will help you set up a self-hosted instance of [Notesnook](https://github.com/streetwriters/notesnook-sync-server) using Docker Compose.\n\n---\n\n## Prerequisites\n- **Linux server** with Docker and Docker Compose installed.\n- **Domain name** with the ability to create subdomains.\n- Basic understanding of terminal commands.\n- Ports **5264**, **6264**, **7264**, **8264**, **9090** and **9009** available. Or you can change them but take good note of your changes.\n\n---\n\n## 1. Directory Structure Setup\nCreate the required directories:\n\n```\n# Create data directories\nmkdir -p /srv/Files/Notesnook/db\nmkdir -p /srv/Files/Notesnook/s3\nmkdir -p /srv/Files/Notesnook/setup\n```\n\n---\n\n## 2. Configuration Files\n\n### 2.1. Environment File\nCreate the `.env` file:\n\n```\ncd /srv/Files/Notesnook/setup\nnano .env\n```\n\nAdd the following content (modify the values accordingly):\n\n```\n# Instance Configuration\nINSTANCE_NAME=My Notesnook\nDISABLE_SIGNUPS=false\nNOTESNOOK_API_SECRET=your_secure_api_secret_here\n\n# SMTP Configuration\nSMTP_USERNAME=your_email@domain.com\nSMTP_PASSWORD=your_smtp_password\nSMTP_HOST=smtp.your-server.com\nSMTP_PORT=587\n\n# Public URLs (replace domain.com with your domain)\nAUTH_SERVER_PUBLIC_URL=https://auth.domain.com/\nNOTESNOOK_APP_PUBLIC_URL=https://notes.domain.com/\nMONOGRAPH_PUBLIC_URL=https://mono.domain.com/\nATTACHMENTS_SERVER_PUBLIC_URL=https://files.domain.com/\n\n# MinIO Configuration\nMINIO_ROOT_USER=admin\nMINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=your_secure_password_here\n```\n\n---\n\n### 2.2. Docker Compose File\nCreate the `docker-compose.yml` file:\n\n```\nnano docker-compose.yml\n```\n\nPaste the following content:\n\n```\nx-server-discovery: &server-discovery\n NOTESNOOK_SERVER_PORT: 5264\n NOTESNOOK_SERVER_HOST: notesnook-server\n IDENTITY_SERVER_PORT: 8264\n IDENTITY_SERVER_HOST: identity-server\n SSE_SERVER_PORT: 7264\n SSE_SERVER_HOST: sse-server\n SELF_HOSTED: 1\n IDENTITY_SERVER_URL: ${AUTH_SERVER_PUBLIC_URL}\n NOTESNOOK_APP_HOST: ${NOTESNOOK_APP_PUBLIC_URL}\n\nx-env-files: &env-files\n - .env\n\nservices:\n validate:\n image: vandot/alpine-bash\n entrypoint: /bin/bash\n env_file: *env-files\n command:\n - -c\n - |\n required_vars=(\n \"INSTANCE_NAME\"\n \"NOTESNOOK_API_SECRET\"\n \"DISABLE_SIGNUPS\"\n \"SMTP_USERNAME\"\n \"SMTP_PASSWORD\"\n \"SMTP_HOST\"\n \"SMTP_PORT\"\n \"AUTH_SERVER_PUBLIC_URL\"\n \"NOTESNOOK_APP_PUBLIC_URL\"\n \"MONOGRAPH_PUBLIC_URL\"\n \"ATTACHMENTS_SERVER_PUBLIC_URL\"\n )\n for var in \"$${required_vars[@]}\"; do\n if [ -z \"$${!var}\" ]; then\n echo \"Error: Required environment variable $$var is not set.\"\n exit 1\n fi\n done\n echo \"All required environment variables are set.\"\n restart: \"no\"\n\n notesnook-db:\n image: mongo:7.0.12\n hostname: notesnook-db\n volumes:\n - /srv/Files/Notesnook/db:/data/db\n - /srv/Files/Notesnook/db:/data/configdb\n networks:\n - notesnook\n command: --replSet rs0 --bind_ip_all\n depends_on:\n validate:\n condition: service_completed_successfully\n healthcheck:\n test: echo 'db.runCommand(\"ping\").ok' | mongosh mongodb://localhost:27017 --quiet\n interval: 40s\n timeout: 30s\n retries: 3\n start_period: 60s\n\n initiate-rs0:\n image: mongo:7.0.12\n networks:\n - notesnook\n depends_on:\n - notesnook-db\n entrypoint: /bin/sh\n command:\n - -c\n - |\n mongosh mongodb://notesnook-db:27017 < /dev/tcp/127.0.0.1/9000' || exit 1\n interval: 40s\n timeout: 30s\n retries: 3\n start_period: 60s\n\n setup-s3:\n image: minio/mc:RELEASE.2024-07-26T13-08-44Z\n depends_on:\n - notesnook-s3\n networks:\n - notesnook\n entrypoint: /bin/bash\n env_file: *env-files\n command:\n - -c\n - |\n until mc alias set minio http://notesnook-s3:9000/ ${MINIO_ROOT_USER:-minioadmin} ${MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD:-minioadmin}; do\n sleep 1;\n done;\n mc mb minio/attachments -p\n\n identity-server:\n image: streetwriters/identity:latest\n ports:\n - 8264:8264\n networks:\n - notesnook\n env_file: *env-files\n depends_on:\n - notesnook-db\n healthcheck:\n test: wget --tries=1 -nv -q http://localhost:8264/health -O- || exit 1\n interval: 40s\n timeout: 30s\n retries: 3\n start_period: 60s\n environment:\n <<: *server-discovery\n MONGODB_CONNECTION_STRING: mongodb://notesnook-db:27017/identity?replSet=rs0\n MONGODB_DATABASE_NAME: identity\n\n notesnook-server:\n image: streetwriters/notesnook-sync:latest\n ports:\n - 5264:5264\n networks:\n - notesnook\n env_file: *env-files\n depends_on:\n - notesnook-s3\n - setup-s3\n - identity-server\n healthcheck:\n test: wget --tries=1 -nv -q http://localhost:5264/health -O- || exit 1\n interval: 40s\n timeout: 30s\n retries: 3\n start_period: 60s\n environment:\n <<: *server-discovery\n MONGODB_CONNECTION_STRING: mongodb://notesnook-db:27017/?replSet=rs0\n MONGODB_DATABASE_NAME: notesnook\n S3_INTERNAL_SERVICE_URL: \"http://notesnook-s3:9000/\"\n S3_INTERNAL_BUCKET_NAME: \"attachments\"\n S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID: \"${MINIO_ROOT_USER:-minioadmin}\"\n S3_ACCESS_KEY: \"${MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD:-minioadmin}\"\n S3_SERVICE_URL: \"${ATTACHMENTS_SERVER_PUBLIC_URL}\"\n S3_REGION: \"us-east-1\"\n S3_BUCKET_NAME: \"attachments\"\n\n sse-server:\n image: streetwriters/sse:latest\n ports:\n - 7264:7264\n env_file: *env-files\n depends_on:\n - identity-server\n - notesnook-server\n networks:\n - notesnook\n healthcheck:\n test: wget --tries=1 -nv -q http://localhost:7264/health -O- || exit 1\n interval: 40s\n timeout: 30s\n retries: 3\n start_period: 60s\n environment:\n <<: *server-discovery\n\n monograph-server:\n image: streetwriters/monograph:latest\n ports:\n - 6264:3000\n env_file: *env-files\n depends_on:\n - notesnook-server\n networks:\n - notesnook\n healthcheck:\n test: wget --tries=1 -nv -q http://localhost:3000/api/health -O- || exit 1\n interval: 40s\n timeout: 30s\n retries: 3\n start_period: 60s\n environment:\n <<: *server-discovery\n API_HOST: http://notesnook-server:5264/\n PUBLIC_URL: ${MONOGRAPH_PUBLIC_URL}\n\nnetworks:\n notesnook:\n```\n\n---\n\n## 3. Docker Images Preparation\nPull all required images to avoid timeout issues:\n\n```\ncd /srv/Files/Notesnook/setup\ndocker pull mongo:7.0.12\ndocker pull minio/minio:RELEASE.2024-07-29T22-14-52Z\ndocker pull streetwriters/identity:latest\ndocker pull streetwriters/notesnook-sync:latest\ndocker pull streetwriters/sse:latest\ndocker pull streetwriters/monograph:latest\ndocker pull vandot/alpine-bash\n```\nor just\n\n```\ncd /srv/Files/Notesnook/setup\ndocker compose pull\n```\n\n---\n\n## 4. Deployment\nStart the services:\n\n```\ncd /srv/Files/Notesnook/setup\ndocker compose up -d\n```\n\n---\n\n## 5. Service Verification\n\n### 5.1. Check Container Status\n\n```\ndocker compose ps\n```\n\nExpected status:\n- **Running containers**:\n - `notesnook-db`\n - `notesnook-s3`\n - `identity-server`\n - `notesnook-server`\n - `sse-server`\n - `monograph-server`\n- **Completed containers** (should show `Exit 0`):\n - `validate`\n - `initiate-rs0`\n - `setup-s3`\n\n### 5.2. Check Logs\n\n```\ndocker compose logs\n```\n\n### 5.3. Test MinIO Access\nVisit: `http://your-server:9009/`\n\n---\n\n## 6. Reverse Proxy Configuration with Nginx and SSL\n\n**Enable WebSockets Support for:**\nnotes.domain.com (port 5264) - For real-time synchronization \nevents.domain.com (port 7264) - For real-time notifications \n\n**Enable Cache Assets for:** mono.domain.com (port 6264) - For optimizing public notes loading\n\n### Step 1: Install Certbot\n```bash\nsudo apt-get update\nsudo apt-get install certbot python3-certbot-nginx\n```\n\n### Step 2: Obtain SSL Certificates\n```bash\nsudo certbot --nginx -d auth.domain.com -d notes.domain.com -d events.domain.com -d mono.domain.com\n```\n\n### Step 3: Modify Nginx Configuration\nUse the following example configurations for each subdomain:\n\n```nginx\n# Auth Server - Basic (no cache/websocket needed)\nserver {\n listen 80;\n server_name auth.domain.com;\n return 301 https://$host$request_uri;\n}\n\nserver {\n listen 443 ssl;\n server_name auth.domain.com;\n\n ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/auth.domain.com/fullchain.pem;\n ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/auth.domain.com/privkey.pem;\n include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;\n ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;\n\n location / {\n proxy_pass http://localhost:8264/;\n proxy_set_header Host $host;\n proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;\n }\n}\n\n# Notes Server - With WebSocket\nserver {\n listen 80;\n server_name notes.domain.com;\n return 301 https://$host$request_uri;\n}\n\nserver {\n listen 443 ssl;\n server_name notes.domain.com;\n\n ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/notes.domain.com/fullchain.pem;\n ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/notes.domain.com/privkey.pem;\n include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;\n ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;\n\n location / {\n proxy_pass http://localhost:5264/;\n proxy_http_version 1.1;\n proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;\n proxy_set_header Connection \"upgrade\";\n proxy_set_header Host $host;\n proxy_read_timeout 3600;\n proxy_send_timeout 3600;\n }\n}\n\n# Events Server - With WebSocket\nserver {\n listen 80;\n server_name events.domain.com;\n return 301 https://$host$request_uri;\n}\n\nserver {\n listen 443 ssl;\n server_name events.domain.com;\n\n ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/events.domain.com/fullchain.pem;\n ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/events.domain.com/privkey.pem;\n include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;\n ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;\n\n location / {\n proxy_pass http://localhost:7264/;\n proxy_http_version 1.1;\n proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;\n proxy_set_header Connection \"upgrade\";\n proxy_set_header Host $host;\n proxy_read_timeout 3600;\n proxy_send_timeout 3600;\n }\n}\n\n# Monograph Server - With Cache\nserver {\n listen 80;\n server_name mono.domain.com;\n return 301 https://$host$request_uri;\n}\n\nserver {\n listen 443 ssl;\n server_name mono.domain.com;\n\n ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/mono.domain.com/fullchain.pem;\n ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/mono.domain.com/privkey.pem;\n include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;\n ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;\n\n location / {\n proxy_pass http://localhost:6264/;\n proxy_cache_use_stale error timeout http_500 http_502 http_503 http_504;\n proxy_cache_valid 200 60m;\n add_header X-Cache-Status $upstream_cache_status;\n expires 1h;\n add_header Cache-Control \"public, no-transform\";\n }\n}\n```\n---\n\n## 7. Useful Commands\n\n### Service Management\n\n```\n# View real-time logs\ndocker compose logs -f\n\n# View logs for specific service\ndocker compose logs [service-name]\n\n# Restart specific service\ndocker compose restart [service-name]\n\n# Stop all services\ndocker compose down\n\n# Update services\ndocker compose pull\ndocker compose up -d\n```\n\n---\n\n## 8. Maintenance\n\n### 8.1. Backup\nRegularly backup these directories:\n- `/srv/Files/Notesnook/db/` (MongoDB data)\n- `/srv/Files/Notesnook/s3/` (MinIO data)\n- `/srv/Files/Notesnook/setup/.env` (Configuration)\n\n### 8.2. Updates\nTo update all services:\n\n```\ncd /srv/Files/Notesnook/setup\ndocker compose pull\ndocker compose down\ndocker compose up -d\n```\n\n---\n\n## 9. Troubleshooting\n\n### Common Issues:\n\n#### Service won't start\n- Check logs: `docker compose logs [service-name]`\n- Verify port availability.\n- Check directory permissions.\n- Verify environment variables.\n\n#### Database Connection Issues\n- Ensure MongoDB replica set is initialized.\n- Check MongoDB logs: `docker compose logs notesnook-db`.\n\n#### Storage Issues\n- Verify MinIO credentials.\n- Check MinIO logs: `docker compose logs notesnook-s3`.\n\n#### Email Not Working\n- Verify SMTP settings in `.env`.\n- Check identity-server logs.\n\n---\n\n## Security Notes\n- Change default passwords in `.env`.\n- Use strong passwords for MinIO and API secret.\n- Keep your `.env` file secure.\n- Regularly update all services.\n- Enable HTTPS on your reverse proxy.\n- Consider implementing `fail2ban`.\n- Regularly monitor logs for suspicious activity.\n\n---\n\n## Support\nIf you encounter issues:\n- Check the logs.\n- Visit the [Notesnook GitHub repository](https://github.com/streetwriters/notesnook).\n- Join the [Notesnook Discord](https://discord.gg/5davZnhw3V) for support.","creator_id":1750,"community_id":11,"removed":false,"locked":false,"published":"2025-01-20T19:23:51.206940Z","updated":"2025-01-22T09:09:22.916684Z","deleted":false,"nsfw":false,"embed_title":"GitHub - streetwriters/notesnook-sync-server: Sync server for Notesnook (self-hosting in alpha)","embed_description":"Sync server for Notesnook (self-hosting in alpha).
