This repository showcases an advanced Nextcloud installation. The following features are included:

• postgres as database
• caddy as reverse proxy (supports automatic TLS)
• no nginx or apache
• full text search using elasticsearch
• OCR using tesseract

• Docker and docker-compose
• A domain and an A record pointing to the server (this is a requirement for caddy's automatic TLS feature; see https://caddyserver.com/docs/automatic-https)

docker-compose up -d

This is useful if you want to use Nextcloud to sync/backup your calendars, contacts and tasks from your phone.

docker-compose exec -u www-data nextcloud ./occ app:install contacts
docker-compose exec -u www-data nextcloud ./occ app:install calendar
docker-compose exec -u www-data nextcloud ./occ app:install tasks

Install the following Nextcloud apps:

• Full text search
• Full text search - Elasticsearch Platform
• Full text search - Files

docker-compose exec -u www-data nextcloud ./occ app:install fulltextsearch
docker-compose exec -u www-data nextcloud ./occ app:install fulltextsearch_elasticsearch
docker-compose exec -u www-data nextcloud ./occ app:install files_fulltextsearch
docker-compose exec -u www-data nextcloud ./occ app:install files_fulltextsearch_tesseract

Go to /settings/admin/fulltextsearch and configure elasticsearch:

• Server address: http://elastic:mysecretpassword@elasticsearch:9200
• Index: nextcloud_index (or whatever)
• Analyzer tokenizer: standard
• Local files: yes
• External files: Index path and content
• Index PDF: yes
• Index Office-files: yes

In a terminal run:

docker-compose exec -u www-data nextcloud /var/www/html/occ fulltextsearch:index

Future index updates will be handled by the nextcloud cronjob.

Go to /settings/admin. Enter SMTP data.

Edit the file nextcloud/config/custom.config.php.

• Document env files
• OCR using tesseract (Installed but not verified)
• Check if fulltextsearch index update is performed with cron
