# Frontend
|
|
|
|
Installing the frontend is just a matter of hosting a bunch of static files somewhere.
|
|
|
|
With nginx or apache, you have to [download](https://vikunja.io/en/download/) the frontend files first.
|
|
Unzip them and store them somewhere your server can access them.
|
|
|
|
You also need to configure a rewrite condition to internally redirect all requests to `index.html` which handles all urls.
|
|
|
|
## Docker
|
|
|
|
The docker image is based on nginx and just contains all nessecary files for the frontend.
|
|
|
|
To run it, all you need is
|
|
|
|
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
|
docker run -p 80:80 vikunja/frontend
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
|
|
|
which will run the docker image and expose port 80 on the host.
|
|
|
|
See [full docker example]({{< ref "full-docker-example.md">}}) for more varations of this config.
|
|
|
|
## NGINX
|
|
|
|
Below are two example configurations which you can put in your `nginx.conf`:
|
|
|
|
You may need to adjust `server_name` and `root` accordingly.
|
|
|
|
After configuring them, you need to reload nginx (`service nginx reload`).
|
|
|
|
### with gzip enabled (recommended)
|
|
|
|
{{< highlight conf >}}
|
|
gzip on;
|
|
gzip_disable "msie6";
|
|
|
|
gzip_vary on;
|
|
gzip_proxied any;
|
|
gzip_comp_level 6;
|
|
gzip_buffers 16 8k;
|
|
gzip_http_version 1.1;
|
|
gzip_min_length 256;
|
|
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript application/vnd.ms-fontobject application/x-font-ttf font/opentype image/svg+xml;
|
|
|
|
server {
|
|
listen 80;
|
|
server_name localhost;
|
|
|
|
location / {
|
|
root /path/to/vikunja/static/frontend/files;
|
|
try_files $uri $uri/ /;
|
|
index index.html index.htm;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
|
|
|
### without gzip
|
|
|
|
{{< highlight conf >}}
|
|
server {
|
|
listen 80;
|
|
server_name localhost;
|
|
|
|
location / {
|
|
root /path/to/vikunja/static/frontend/files;
|
|
try_files $uri $uri/ /;
|
|
index index.html index.htm;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
|
|
|
## Apache
|
|
|
|
Apache needs to have `mod_rewrite` enabled for this to work properly:
|
|
|
|
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
|
a2enmod rewrite
|
|
service apache2 restart
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
|
|
|
Put the following config in `cat /etc/apache2/sites-available/vikunja.conf`:
|
|
|
|
{{< highlight aconf >}}
|
|
<VirtualHost *:80>
|
|
ServerName localhost
|
|
DocumentRoot /path/to/vikunja/static/frontend/files
|
|
RewriteEngine On
|
|
RewriteRule ^\/?(config\.json|favicon\.ico|css|fonts|images|img|js) - [L]
|
|
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.html [QSA,L]
|
|
</VirtualHost>
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
|
|
|
You probably want to adjust `ServerName` and `DocumentRoot`.
|
|
|
|
Once you've customized your config, you need to enable it:
|
|
|
|
{{< highlight bash >}}
|
|
a2ensite vikunja
|
|
service apache2 reload
|
|
{{< /highlight >}}
|
|
|
|
## Updating
|
|
|
|
To update, it should be enough to download the new files and overwrite the old ones.
|
|
The paths contain hashes, so all caches are invalidated automatically.
