# NextCloud
# NextCloud Docker Compose / Swarm Install
[NextCloud](https://www.nextcloud.org/) (_a [fork of OwnCloud](https://owncloud.com/owncloud-vs-nextcloud/), led by original developer Frank Karlitschek_) is a suite of client-server software for creating and using file hosting services. It is functionally similar to Dropbox, although Nextcloud is free and open-source, allowing anyone to install and operate it on a private server.
[NextCloud](https://nextcloud.com/) (*now called "[Nextcloud Hub II](https://nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-hub-2-brings-major-overhaul-introducing-nextcloud-office-p2p-backup-and-more/)"*) has as grown from a humble [fork of OwnCloud](https://owncloud.com/owncloud-vs-nextcloud/) in [2016](https://www.zdnet.com/article/owncloud-founder-forks-popular-open-source-cloud/), to an industry-leading, on-premises content collaboration platform. NextCloud still does the traditional file-collaboration, but is now beefed-up with an [app store](https://apps.nextcloud.com/featured) supporting more than 100 apps, including [text and video chats](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/spreed), [calendaring](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/calendar), a [mail client](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/mail), and even an [office editing suite](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/richdocuments).

It also now supports a sweet, customizable dashboard:

### Launch NextCloud stack
### Launch NextCloud Docker stack and setup
Launch the NextCloud stack by running ```docker stack deploy nextcloud -c <path -to-docker-compose.yml>```
Log into your new instance at https://**YOUR-FQDN**, with user "admin" and the password you specified in nextcloud.env.
### Enable redis
To make NextCloud [a little snappier](https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/13/admin_manual/configuration_server/caching_configuration.html), edit ```/var/data/nextcloud/config/config.php``` (_now that it's been created on the first container launch_), and add the following:
```bash
'redis' => array(
'host' => 'redis',
'port' => 6379,
),
```
### Use service discovery
Want to use Calendar/Contacts on your iOS device? Want to avoid dictating long, rambling URL strings to your users, like ```https://nextcloud.batcave.com/remote.php/dav/principals/users/USERNAME/``` ?
Huzzah! NextCloud supports [service discovery for CalDAV/CardDAV](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6764), allowing you to simply tell your device the primary URL of your server (_**nextcloud.batcave.org**, for example_), and have the device figure out the correct WebDAV path to use.
We (_and anyone else using the [NextCloud Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/_/nextcloud/)_) are using an SSL-terminating reverse proxy ([Traefik](/docker-swarm/traefik/)) in front of our NextCloud container. In fact, it's not **possible** to setup SSL **within** the NextCloud container.
When using a reverse proxy, your device requests a URL from your proxy (<https://nextcloud.batcave.com/.well-known/caldav>), and the reverse proxy then passes that request **unencrypted** to the internal URL of the NextCloud instance (i.e., <http://172.16.12.123/.well-known/caldav>)
The Apache webserver on the NextCloud container (_knowing it was spoken to via HTTP_), responds with a 301 redirect to <http://nextcloud.batcave.com/remote.php/dav/>. See the problem? You requested an **HTTPS** (_encrypted_) url, and in return, you received a redirect to an **HTTP** (_unencrypted_) URL. Any sensible client (_iOS included_) will refuse such schenanigans.
To correct this, we need to tell NextCloud to always redirect the .well-known URLs to an HTTPS location. This can only be done **after** deploying NextCloud, since it's only on first launch of the container that the .htaccess file is created in the first place.
To make NextCloud service discovery work with Traefik reverse proxy, edit ```/var/data/nextcloud/html/.htaccess```, and change this:
```bash
RewriteRule ^\.well-known/carddav /remote.php/dav/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^\.well-known/caldav /remote.php/dav/ [R=301,L]
```
To this:
```bash
RewriteRule ^\.well-known/carddav https://%{SERVER_NAME}/remote.php/dav/ [R=301,L]
RewriteRule ^\.well-known/caldav https://%{SERVER_NAME}/remote.php/dav/ [R=301,L]
```
Then restart your container with ```docker service update nextcloud_nextcloud --force``` to restart apache.
Your can test for success by running ```curl -i https://nextcloud.batcave.org/.well-known/carddav```. You should get a 301 redirect to your equivalent of <https://nextcloud.batcave.org/remote.php/dav/>, as below:
```bash
[davidy:~] % curl -i https://nextcloud.batcave.org/.well-known/carddav
HTTP/2 301
content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
date: Wed, 12 Dec 2018 08:30:11 GMT
location: https://nextcloud.batcave.org/remote.php/dav/
```
Note that this .htaccess can be overwritten by NextCloud, and you may have to reapply the change in future. I've created an [issue requesting a permanent fix](https://github.com/nextcloud/docker/issues/577).
Log into your new instance at https://**YOUR-FQDN**, and setup your admin username and password.
[^1]: Since many of my other recipes use PostgreSQL, I'd have preferred to use Postgres over MariaDB, but MariaDB seems to be the [preferred database type](https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/5912).
[^2]: I'm [not the first user](https://github.com/nextcloud/docker/issues/528) to stumble across the service discovery bug with reverse proxies.
