# Installing on OpenBSD
-This guide describes the installation and configuration of pleroma (and the required software to run it) on a single OpenBSD 6.6 server.
+This guide describes the installation and configuration of akkoma (and the required software to run it) on a single OpenBSD 6.6 server.
For any additional information regarding commands and configuration files mentioned here, check the man pages [online](https://man.openbsd.org/) or directly on your server with the man command.

+### Preparing the system
#### Required software
-The following packages need to be installed:
+To install them, run the following command (with doas or as root):
+
+```
+pkg_add elixir gmake git postgresql-server postgresql-contrib cmake ffmpeg ImageMagick
+```
- * elixir
- * gmake
+Akkoma requires a reverse proxy, OpenBSD has relayd in base (and is used in this guide) and packages/ports are available for nginx (www/nginx) and apache (www/apache-httpd). Independently of the reverse proxy, [acme-client(1)](https://man.openbsd.org/acme-client) can be used to get a certificate from Let's Encrypt.
+
+#### Optional software
+
+Per [`docs/installation/optional/media_graphics_packages.md`](../installation/optional/media_graphics_packages.md):
* ImageMagick
- * git
- * postgresql-server
- * postgresql-contrib
- * cmake
+ * ffmpeg
+ * exiftool
-To install them, run the following command (with doas or as root):
+To install the above:
```
-pkg_add elixir gmake ImageMagick git postgresql-server postgresql-contrib cmake
+pkg_add ImageMagick ffmpeg p5-Image-ExifTool
```

-#### Creating the pleroma user
-Pleroma will be run by a dedicated user, \_pleroma. Before creating it, insert the following lines in login.conf:
+#### Creating the akkoma user
+Akkoma will be run by a dedicated user, \_akkoma. Before creating it, insert the following lines in login.conf:
```
-pleroma:\
+akkoma:\
:datasize-max=1536M:\
:datasize-cur=1536M:\
:openfiles-max=4096
```
-This creates a "pleroma" login class and sets higher values than default for datasize and openfiles (see [login.conf(5)](https://man.openbsd.org/login.conf)), this is required to avoid having pleroma crash some time after starting.

-#### Clone pleroma's directory
-Enter a shell as the \_pleroma user. As root, run `su _pleroma -;cd`. Then clone the repository with `git clone -b stable https://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/pleroma.git`. Pleroma is now installed in /home/\_pleroma/pleroma/, it will be configured and started at the end of this guide.
+#### Clone akkoma's directory
+Enter a shell as the \_akkoma user. As root, run `su _akkoma -;cd`. Then clone the repository with `git clone https://akkoma.dev/AkkomaGang/akkoma.git`. Akkoma is now installed in /home/\_akkoma/akkoma/, it will be configured and started at the end of this guide.
#### PostgreSQL
Start a shell as the \_postgresql user (as root run `su _postgresql -` then run the `initdb` command to initialize postgresql:
This will have to be done for each IPv4 and IPv6 address relayd listens on.
#### relayd
-relayd will be used as the reverse proxy sitting in front of pleroma.

Check pf's configuration by running `pfctl -nf /etc/pf.conf`, load it with `pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf` and enable pf at boot with `rcctl enable pf`.
-#### Configure and start pleroma
-Enter a shell as \_pleroma (as root `su _pleroma -`) and enter pleroma's installation directory (`cd ~/pleroma/`).
+#### Configure and start akkoma
+Enter a shell as \_akkoma (as root `su _akkoma -`) and enter akkoma's installation directory (`cd ~/akkoma/`).
Then follow the main installation guide:
* run `mix deps.get`
- * run `mix pleroma.instance gen` and enter your instance's information when asked
+ * run `MIX_ENV=prod mix pleroma.instance gen` and enter your instance's information when asked
* copy config/generated\_config.exs to config/prod.secret.exs. The default values should be sufficient but you should edit it and check that everything seems OK.
- * exit your current shell back to a root one and run `psql -U postgres -f /home/_pleroma/pleroma/config/setup_db.psql` to setup the database.
- * return to a \_pleroma shell into pleroma's installation directory (`su _pleroma -;cd ~/pleroma`) and run `MIX_ENV=prod mix ecto.migrate`
+ * exit your current shell back to a root one and run `psql -U postgres -f /home/_akkoma/akkoma/config/setup_db.psql` to setup the database.
+ * return to a \_akkoma shell into akkoma's installation directory (`su _akkoma -;cd ~/akkoma`) and run `MIX_ENV=prod mix ecto.migrate`
-As \_pleroma in /home/\_pleroma/pleroma, you can now run `LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 MIX_ENV=prod mix phx.server` to start your instance.
+As \_akkoma in /home/\_akkoma/akkoma, you can now run `LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 MIX_ENV=prod mix phx.server` to start your instance.
In another SSH session/tmux window, check that it is working properly by running `ftp -MVo - http://127.0.0.1:4000/api/v1/instance`, you should get json output. Double-check that *uri*'s value is your instance's domain name.
-##### Starting pleroma at boot
-An rc script to automatically start pleroma at boot hasn't been written yet, it can be run in a tmux session (tmux is in base).
+##### Starting akkoma at boot
+An rc script to automatically start akkoma at boot hasn't been written yet, it can be run in a tmux session (tmux is in base).
#### Create administrative user
-If your instance is up and running, you can create your first user with administrative rights with the following command as the \_pleroma user.
+If your instance is up and running, you can create your first user with administrative rights with the following command as the \_akkoma user.

## Questions
-Questions about the installation or didn’t it work as it should be, ask in [#pleroma:matrix.org](https://matrix.heldscal.la/#/room/#freenode_#pleroma:matrix.org) or IRC Channel **#pleroma** on **Freenode**.
+If you encounter any issues or have questions regarding the install process, feel free to ask at [meta.akkoma.dev](https://meta.akkoma.dev/).
