Bookstack - a platform to create documentation/wiki content built with PHP & Laravel - Bookstack is a free and open source Wiki designed for creating beautiful documentation.

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. Feel free to comment in the discussion section of this resource.

In this tutorial, we are going to use this Docker build for Heimdall: linuxserver/bookstack

I will definitely give it a try since I'm a long time user of DS Note and facing text formatting issues for quite a long time, when synchronizing between the Android App and Windows Client.

Hi, just tried to install and configure the appropriate docker container but could not start it.

I've experience with docker already, running about 10 of them on my DS916+, but could not figure out why this one fails so far.
The docker log tells me:
Code:
nc: getaddrinfo: Name does not resolve
nothing more. I guess this is an issue with the database host cause this is the only environment var that must be resolved, I assume.

Some more info: I've created a database called bookstack on my NAS with MariaDB 10 using phpMyAdmin and added the env var DB_HOST: <ip_of_nas>:3307 before running the container. Of course I've additionally added a DB_PASS and DB_USER, too.

The container and the database are running on the same NAS as you might guess from the lines above.

Maybe sbdy knows why this fails?

Thanks,
Michael
 
Hi,

yes, I've even tried without port to no avail either. All mentioned vars are set.

However, I must have been blind ;) because this log entries did not do anything!
I simply should have been more patient, because after a while and carefully watching the log, I now can access main page of bookstack and log in!

Hence, thanks for your reply - all runs well now!

Btw, perhaps you should mention on your tutorial that the initial password is password and the e-mail address for the admin user is [email protected]. I've found this information somewhere.

Thank you,
Michael
 
Glad it works for you now. Yes, when you start a container sometimes you need to wait a bit longer for everything to set up.

Btw, perhaps you should mention on your tutorial that the initial password is password and the e-mail address for the admin user is [email protected]. I've found this information somewhere.
Yes, it's on the Docker site, but I've added it on the overview page for this resource too.

Cheers!
 
Anybody knows whether Bookstack can authorize against Synology Directory Server?

Maybe I've already found an answer here, however I do not know how to set this up on my DS.
 
Hi all, I'm having problems getting this working on my synology. I'm running the synology MariaDB 10 database. I have an empty db called bookstack w/ a user called bookstack. Everything looks OK, but it simply won't connect to the db. Below is my config and further down is the error i'm getting. Any help is very much appreciated!

That should help indeed. Personally I use ip_port in DH_HOST variable and its working just fine with no DB_CONNECTION variable. It is interesting that most users have problems with docker image that need to use mariadb hosted as a bare metal install via Package Center
