[Bookstack](https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack) is a free and open source Wiki designed for creating beautiful documentation. Featuring a simple, but powerful WYSIWYG editor it allows for teams to create detailed and useful documentation with ease.
Powered by SQL and including a Markdown editor for those who prefer it, BookStack is geared towards making documentation more of a pleasure than a chore.
For more information on BookStack visit their website and check it out: https://www.bookstackapp.com

## Supported Architectures
We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://distribution.github.io/distribution/spec/manifest-v2-2/#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/).
Simply pulling `lscr.io/linuxserver/bookstack:latest` should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.
The architectures supported by this image are:
| Architecture | Available | Tag |
| :----: | :----: | ---- |
| x86-64 | ✅ | amd64-\ |
| arm64 | ✅ | arm64v8-\ |
| armhf | ❌ | |
## Application Setup
The default username is [email protected] with the password of **password**, access the container at http://dockerhost:6875.
This application is dependent on a MySQL database be it one you already have or a new one. If you do not already have one, set up our MariaDB container here https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/mariadb/.
If you intend to use this application behind a subfolder reverse proxy, such as our SWAG container or Traefik you will need to make sure that the `APP_URL` environment variable is set to your external domain, or it will not work.
Documentation for BookStack can be found at https://www.bookstackapp.com/docs/.
### BookStack File & Directory Paths
This container ensures certain BookStack application files & folders, such as user file upload folders, are retained within the `/config` folder so that they are persistent & accessible when the `/config` container path is bound as a volume. There may be cases, when following the BookStack documentation, that you'll need to know how these files and folders are used relative to a non-container BookStack installation.
Below is a mapping of container `/config` paths to those relative within a BookStack install directory:
- **/config container path** => **BookStack relative path**
- `/config/www/.env` => `.env`
- `/config/www/laravel.log` => `storage/logs/laravel.log`
- `/config/www/backups/` => `storage/backups/`
- `/config/www/files/` => `storage/uploads/files/`
- `/config/www/images/` => `storage/uploads/images/`
- `/config/www/themes/` => `themes/`
- `/config/www/uploads/` => `public/uploads/`
### Advanced Users (full control over the .env file)
If you wish to use the extra functionality of BookStack such as email, Memcache, LDAP and so on you will need to make your own .env file with guidance from the BookStack documentation.
When you create the container, do not set any arguments for any SQL settings. The container will copy an exemplary .env file to /config/www/.env on your host system for you to edit.
## Usage
To help you get started creating a container from this image you can either use docker-compose or the docker cli.
### docker-compose (recommended, [click here for more info](https://docs.linuxserver.io/general/docker-compose))
```yaml

### docker cli ([click here for more info](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/cli/))
```bash
docker run -d \
--name=bookstack \
-e PUID=1000 \
-e PGID=1000 \
-e TZ=Etc/UTC \
-e APP_URL=yourbaseurl \
-e DB_HOST=yourdbhost \
-e DB_PORT=yourdbport \
-e DB_USER=yourdbuser \
-e DB_PASS=yourdbpass \
-e DB_DATABASE=bookstackapp \
-e QUEUE_CONNECTION= `#optional` \
-p 6875:80 \
-v /path/to/bookstack/config:/config \
--restart unless-stopped \
lscr.io/linuxserver/bookstack:latest
```
## Parameters
Containers are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `:` respectively. For example, `-p 8080:80` would expose port `80` from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port `8080` outside the container.
| Parameter | Function |
| :----: | --- |
| `-p 80` | will map the container's port 80 to port 6875 on the host |
| `-e PUID=1000` | for UserID - see below for explanation |
| `-e PGID=1000` | for GroupID - see below for explanation |
| `-e TZ=Etc/UTC` | specify a timezone to use, see this [list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones#List). |
| `-e APP_URL=yourbaseurl` | for specifying the IP:port or URL your application will be accessed on (ie. `http://192.168.1.1:6875` or `https://bookstack.mydomain.com` |
| `-e DB_HOST=yourdbhost` | for specifying the database host |
| `-e DB_PORT=yourdbport` | for specifying the database port if not default 3306 |
| `-e DB_USER=yourdbuser` | for specifying the database user |
| `-e DB_PASS=yourdbpass` | for specifying the database password (minimum 4 characters & non-alphanumeric passwords must be properly escaped.) |
| `-e DB_DATABASE=bookstackapp` | for specifying the database to be used |
| `-e QUEUE_CONNECTION=` | Set to `database` to enable async actions like sending email or triggering webhooks. See [documentation](https://www.bookstackapp.com/docs/admin/email-webhooks/#async-action-handling). |
| `-v /config` | Persistent config files |
## Environment variables from files (Docker secrets)
You can set any environment variable from a file by using a special prepend `FILE__`.
As an example:
```bash
-e FILE__MYVAR=/run/secrets/mysecretvariable
```
Will set the environment variable `MYVAR` based on the contents of the `/run/secrets/mysecretvariable` file.
## Umask for running applications
For all of our images we provide the ability to override the default umask settings for services started within the containers using the optional `-e UMASK=022` setting.
Keep in mind umask is not chmod it subtracts from permissions based on it's value it does not add. Please read up [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask) before asking for support.
## User / Group Identifiers
When using volumes (`-v` flags), permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user `PUID` and group `PGID`.
Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic.
In this instance `PUID=1000` and `PGID=1000`, to find yours use `id your_user` as below:
```bash
id your_user
```
Example output:
```text
uid=1000(your_user) gid=1000(your_user) groups=1000(your_user)
```
## Docker Mods
[](https://mods.linuxserver.io/?mod=bookstack "view available mods for this container.") [](https://mods.linuxserver.io/?mod=universal "view available universal mods.")
We publish various [Docker Mods](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-mods) to enable additional functionality within the containers. The list of Mods available for this image (if any) as well as universal mods that can be applied to any one of our images can be accessed via the dynamic badges above.
## Support Info
* Shell access whilst the container is running:
```bash
docker exec -it bookstack /bin/bash
```
* To monitor the logs of the container in realtime:
```bash
docker logs -f bookstack
```
* Container version number:
```bash
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' bookstack
```
* Image version number:
```bash
docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' lscr.io/linuxserver/bookstack:latest
```
## Updating Info
Most of our images are static, versioned, and require an image update and container recreation to update the app inside. With some exceptions (noted in the relevant readme.md), we do not recommend or support updating apps inside the container. Please consult the [Application Setup](#application-setup) section above to see if it is recommended for the image.
Below are the instructions for updating containers:
### Via Docker Compose
* Update images:
* All images:
```bash
docker-compose pull
```
* Single image:
```bash
docker-compose pull bookstack
```
* Update containers:
* All containers:
```bash
docker-compose up -d
```
* Single container:
```bash
docker-compose up -d bookstack
```
* You can also remove the old dangling images:
```bash
docker image prune
```
### Via Docker Run
* Update the image:
```bash
docker pull lscr.io/linuxserver/bookstack:latest
```
* Stop the running container:
```bash
docker stop bookstack
```
* Delete the container:
```bash
docker rm bookstack
```
* Recreate a new container with the same docker run parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your `/config` folder and settings will be preserved)
* You can also remove the old dangling images:
```bash
docker image prune
```
### Image Update Notifications - Diun (Docker Image Update Notifier)
**tip**: We recommend [Diun](https://crazymax.dev/diun/) for update notifications. Other tools that automatically update containers unattended are not recommended or supported.
## Building locally
If you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-bookstack.git
cd docker-bookstack
docker build \
--no-cache \
--pull \
-t lscr.io/linuxserver/bookstack:latest .
```
The ARM variants can be built on x86_64 hardware using `multiarch/qemu-user-static`
```bash
docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static:register --reset
```
Once registered you can define the dockerfile to use with `-f Dockerfile.aarch64`.
