Seafile For Mac



The official Docker image uses multiple containers. If you need to run Seafile and related database in a single container for Synology platform, you can try the docker image provided by community: https://github.com/codeoutin/seafile7/

Seafile is a good file share and sync platform but, it misses on features like LDAP and Active Directory, which are provided in FileCloud with all necessary Seafile features making it the best alternative to Seafile. 3526 dmg drive lakeland, florida 33811.

Getting started¶

Server for generic Linux. No installation needed, just extract and run setup script. See Server Manual. Supported OS ChangeLog. We also provide docker based installation. Download Seafile for Windows PC from FileHorse. 100% Safe and Secure ✔ Free Download (32-bit/64-bit) Latest Version 2021.

Install docker-compose¶

Seafile v7.x.x image uses docker-compose. You should first install the docker-compose command.

Download and modify docker-compose.yml¶

Download docker-compose.yml sample file to your host. Then modify the file according to your environment. The following fields are needed to be modified:

  • The password of MySQL root (MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD and DB_ROOT_PASSWD)
  • The volume directory of MySQL data (volumes)
  • The volume directory of Seafile data (volumes).

Start Seafile server¶

Start Seafile server with the following command

Wait for a few minutes for the first time initialization, then visit http://seafile.example.com to open Seafile Web UI.

NOTE: You should run the above command in a directory with the docker-compose.yml.

More configuration options¶

Custom admin username and password¶

The default admin account is me@example.com and the password is asecret. You can use a different password by setting the container's environment variables in the docker-compose.yml:e.g.

Let's encrypt SSL certificate¶

If you set SEAFILE_SERVER_LETSENCRYPT to true, the container would request a letsencrypt-signed SSL certificate for you automatically.

e.g.

If you want to use your own SSL certificate and the volume directory of Seafile data is /opt/seafile-data:

  • create a folder /opt/seafile-data/ssl, and put your certificate and private key under the ssl directory.
  • Assume your site name is seafile.example.com, then your certificate must have the name seafile.example.com.crt, and the private key must have the name seafile.example.com.key.

Modify Seafile server configurations¶

The config files are under shared/seafile/conf. You can modify the configurations according to Seafile manual

After modification, you need to restart the container:

Find logs¶

3d shapes . The Seafile logs are under shared/logs/seafile in the docker, or /opt/seafile-data/logs/seafile in the server that run the docker.

Macros

The system logs are under shared/logs/var-log, or /opt/seafile-data/logs/var-log in the server that run the docker.

Add a new admin¶

Ensure the container is running, then enter this command:

Enter the username and password according to the prompts. You now have a new admin account.

Seafile directory structure¶

/shared

Placeholder spot for shared volumes. You may elect to store certain persistent information outside of a container, in our case we keep various logfiles and upload directory outside. This allows you to rebuild containers easily without losing important information.

  • /shared/seafile: This is the directory for seafile server configuration and data.
  • /shared/logs: This is the directory for logs.
  • /shared/logs/var-log: This is the directory that would be mounted as /var/log inside the container. For example, you can find the nginx logs in shared/logs/var-log/nginx/.
  • /shared/logs/seafile: This is the directory that would contain the log files of seafile server processes. For example, you can find seaf-server logs in shared/logs/seafile/seafile.log.
  • /shared/ssl: This is directory for certificate, which does not exist by default.
  • /shared/bootstrap.conf: This file does not exist by default. You can create it by your self, and write the configuration of files similar to the samples folder.

Upgrading Seafile server¶

To upgrade to latest version of seafile server:

Backup and recovery¶

Struct¶

We assume your seafile volumns path is in /opt/seafile-data. And you want to backup to /opt/seafile-backup directory.You can create a layout similar to the following in /opt/seafile-backup directory:

The data files to be backed up:

Backup¶

Steps:

  1. Backup the databases;
  2. Backup the seafile data directory;

Backup Order: Database First or Data Directory First

backing up Database:¶

Backing up Seafile library data:¶

To directly copy the whole data directory¶
Use rsync to do incremental backup¶

Recovery¶

Restore the databases:¶

Restore the seafile data:¶

Garbage collection¶

When files are deleted, the blocks comprising those files are not immediately removed as there may be other files that reference those blocks (due to the magic of deduplication). To remove them, Seafile requires a 'garbage collection' process to be run, which detects which blocks no longer used and purges them. (NOTE: for technical reasons, the GC process does not guarantee that every single orphan block will be deleted.)

The required scripts can be found in the /scripts folder of the docker container. To perform garbage collection, simply run docker exec seafile /scripts/gc.sh. For the community edition, this process will stop the seafile server, but it is a relatively quick process and the seafile server will start automatically once the process has finished. The Professional supports an online garbage collection.

Troubleshooting¶

You can run docker commands like 'docker exec' to find errors.
