- * You probably want application to run as separte user - so create a new one: `adduser pleroma`, you can login as it via `su pleroma`
- * Clone the git repository into new user's dir (clone as the pleroma user to avoid permissions errors)
- * Again, as new user, install dependencies with `mix deps.get` if it asks you to install "hex" - agree to that.

-### Database preparation
-
- * You'll need to allow password-based authorisation for `postgres` superuser
- * changing default password for superuser is probably a good idea:
- * Open psql shell as postgres user - while being root run `su postgres -c psql`
- * There, enter following: `ALTER USER postgres with encrypted password '<PASSWORD>';` - where <PASSWORD> is just any string, no need to manually encrypt it, postgres will encrypt it automatically for you.
- * Replace password in file `config/dev.exs` with password you supplied in previous step (look for line like `password: "postgres"`)
-
- * edit `/etc/postgresql/9.6/main/pg_hba.conf` (Assuming you have 9.6 version) and change the line:
- ```
- local all postgres peer
- ```
- to
- ```
- local all postgres md5
- ```
- don't forget to revert it in the later step so you won't have to enter password when accessing psql console.
- * Create and update your database with `mix ecto.create && mix ecto.migrate`. If it gives errors, try running again, this is a known issue.
- * Undo changes you made in `/etc/postgresql/9.6/main/pg_hba.conf` (replace `md5` with `peer`)
- * You most likely don't want having some application accessing database as superuser, so you need to create separate user for that. Right now it must be done manually (issue #27).
- * Open psql shell as postgres user: (as root) `su postgres -c psql`
- * Create a new PostgreSQL user:
- ```sql
- \c pleroma_dev
- CREATE user pleroma;
- ALTER user pleroma with encrypted password '<your password>';
- GRANT ALL ON ALL tables IN SCHEMA public TO pleroma;
- GRANT ALL ON ALL sequences IN SCHEMA public TO pleroma;
- ```
- * Again, change password in `config/dev.exs`, and change user to `"pleroma"` (line like `username: "postgres"`)
