Docker Restyaboard - self-hosted, open source, Trello like kanban board

This tutorial is mostly for newcomers and those that are not so familiar with the Docker. I'm not an expert, but I want to share my installation as a tutorial to help others. For any mistakes, feel free to comment in the discussion section of this resource.

In this tutorial, we are going to use this official automated Docker build for Restyaboard: restyaplatform/restyaboard

Official site: Restyaboard - Open source Trello alternative, kanban board for task management | Restya

Before you start with the installation of this image you need to create a database and user for that database with a password. PostgreSQL database is required and I use pgAdmin administration and management tool for the PostgreSQL database, but this is not covered in this tutorial.

First, go to the Registry tab in your Docker and search for restyaboard. After that click on restyaplatform/restyaboard and click the Download button and I choose v0.6.7 build:




Wait for image to download. Then go to Image tab and find restyaplatform-restyaboard:v0.6.7. Select it and click on button Launch:




Now in the Container creation wizard choose Advanced settings:




In the General settings tab you can for example set Enable auto-restart.


In the Port Settings tab click on the Plus icon and add a port. Local port can be any port of your choice (for this tutorial it's 8077), Container port set to 80 and Type is TCP:




In the Environment tab you'll already get some variables. Make sure you change these ones:

If you want to use email notifications you also need to edit these variables: SMTP_DOMAIN, SMTP_USERNAME, SMTP_PASSWORD, SMTP_SERVER and SMTP_PORT.



Ok, hit Apply button, wait for a bit, then navigate in your browser to http://yourNASip:yourLocalPort and that's it!


Once it's installed login with predefined admin account:
U: admin
P: restya

Make sure you change admin email and password after login. Then you can manually create a new user with this account and confirm it. If you'll set up IMAP settings you can use email so users can register and confirm their account via email.
