Please refer to the [official document](https://docs.couchdb.org/en/stable/install/index.html). However, we do not have to configure it fully. Just the administrator needs to be configured.
2024-02-14T10:35:25Z INF Thank you for trying Cloudflare Tunnel. Doing so, without a Cloudflare account, is a quick way to experiment and try it out. However, be aware that these account-less Tunnels have no uptime guarantee. If you intend to use Tunnels in production you should use a pre-created named tunnel by following: https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-apps

> Now manual configuration is not recommended for some reasons. However, if you want to do so, please use `Setup wizard`. The recommended extra configurations will be also set.
> What is the `passphrase`? Is it different from `uri_passphrase`?
> Yes, the `passphrase` we have exported now is for an End-to-End Encryption passphrase.
> And, `uri_passphrase` that used in the `generate_setupuri.ts` is a different one; for decrypting Set-up URI at using that.
> Why: I (vorotamoroz) think that the passphrase of the Setup-URI should be different from the E2EE passphrase to prevent exposure caused by operational errors or the possibility of evil in our environment. On top of that, I believe that it is desirable for the Setup-URI to be random. Setup-URI is inevitably long, so it goes through the clipboard. I think that its passphrase should not go through the same path, so it should essentially be typed manually.
> Hence, if we keep empty for uri_passphrase, generate_setupuri.ts generates an adjective-noun-randomnumber passphrase so that we can remember it without going through the clipboard.
I have published [docker-compose.yml and ini files](https://github.com/vrtmrz/self-hosted-livesync-server) that launch Caddy and CouchDB at once. If you are using Traefik you can check the [Reverse Proxies](#reverse-proxies) section below.
If you are using Traefik, this [docker-compose.yml](https://github.com/vrtmrz/obsidian-livesync/blob/main/docker-compose.traefik.yml) file (also pasted below) has all the right CORS parameters set. It assumes you have an external network called `proxy`.
```yaml
version: "2.1"
services:
couchdb:
image: couchdb:latest
container_name: obsidian-livesync
user: 1000:1000
environment:
- COUCHDB_USER=username
- COUCHDB_PASSWORD=password
volumes:
- ./data:/opt/couchdb/data
- ./local.ini:/opt/couchdb/etc/local.ini
# Ports not needed when already passed to Traefik
#ports:
# - 5984:5984
restart: unless-stopped
networks:
- proxy
labels:
- "traefik.enable=true"
# The Traefik Network
- "traefik.docker.network=proxy"
# Don't forget to replace 'obsidian-livesync.example.org' with your own domain
# The 'websecure' entryPoint is basically your HTTPS entrypoint. Check the next code snippet if you are encountering problems only; you probably have a working traefik configuration if this is not your first container you are reverse proxying.
