Manual Installation
Requirements on your server
- Node.js 8.5 or up
 - Database (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, MSSQL) use charset 
utf8 - npm (and its dependencies, node-gyp)
 - yarn
 - Bash (for the setup script)
 - For building CodiMD we recommend to use a machine with at least 2GB RAM
 
Instructions
- Check if you meet the requirements at the top of this document.
 - Clone this repository (preferred) or download a release and unzip it.
 - Enter the directory and type 
bin/setup, which will install npm dependencies and create configs. - Setup the configs, see more below
 - Setup environment variables which will overwrite the configs
 - Build front-end bundle by 
yarn run build(useyarn run devif you are in development) - Modify the file named 
.sequelizerc, change the value of the variableurlwith your db connection string For example:postgres://username:password@localhost:5432/codimd - It is recommended to start your server manually once: 
yarn start --production, this way it's easier to see warnings or errors that might occur (leave out--productionfor development). - Run the server as you like (node, forever, pm2, SystemD, Init-Scripts)
 
How to upgrade your installation
If you are upgrading CodiMD from an older version, follow these steps:
- Check if you meet the requirements at the top of this document.
 - Verify which version you were running before and take a look at migrations and breaking changes to see if additional steps, or configuration changes are necessary!
 - Fully stop your old CodiMD server.
 git pullor unzip a new release in the directory.- Run 
bin/setup. This will take care of installing dependencies. It is safe to run on an existing installation. - Build front-end bundle by 
yarn run build(useyarn run devif you are in development). - It is recommended to start your server manually once: 
yarn start --production, this way it's easier to see warnings or errors that might occur (leave out--productionfor development). - You can now restart the CodiMD server!
