## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
You can go multiple routes to setup and run Paperless:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Use the script to setup a Docker install](#docker_script)
|
||||
- [Use the Docker compose templates](#docker)
|
||||
- [Build the Docker image yourself](#docker_build)
|
||||
- [Install Paperless-ngx directly on your system manually ("bare metal")](#bare_metal)
|
||||
- A user-maintained list of commercial hosting providers can be found [in the wiki](https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/wiki/Related-Projects)
|
||||
|
||||
The Docker routes are quick & easy. These are the recommended routes.
|
||||
This configures all the stuff from the above automatically so that it
|
||||
just works and uses sensible defaults for all configuration options.
|
||||
Here you find a cheat-sheet for docker beginners: [CLI
|
||||
Basics](https://www.sehn.tech/refs/devops-with-docker/)
|
||||
|
||||
The bare metal route is complicated to setup but makes it easier should
|
||||
you want to contribute some code back. You need to configure and run the
|
||||
above mentioned components yourself.
|
||||
|
||||
### Use the Installation Script {#docker_script}
|
||||
|
||||
Paperless provides an interactive installation script to setup a Docker Compose
|
||||
installation. The script asks for a couple configuration options, and will then create the
|
||||
necessary configuration files, pull the docker image, start Paperless-ngx and create your superuser
|
||||
account. The script essentially automatically performs the steps described in [Docker setup](#docker).
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make sure that Docker and Docker Compose are [installed](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/){:target="\_blank"}.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Download and run the installation script:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
bash -c "$(curl --location --silent --show-error https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/main/install-paperless-ngx.sh)"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note
|
||||
|
||||
macOS users will need to install [gnu-sed](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/gnu-sed) with support
|
||||
for running as `sed` as well as [wget](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/wget).
|
||||
|
||||
### Use Docker Compose {#docker}
|
||||
|
||||
1. Make sure that Docker and Docker Compose are [installed](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/){:target="\_blank"}.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Go to the [/docker/compose directory on the project
|
||||
page](https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/tree/main/docker/compose){:target="\_blank"}
|
||||
and download one of the `docker-compose.*.yml` files, depending on which database backend
|
||||
you want to use. Place the files in a local directory and rename it `docker-compose.yml`. Download the
|
||||
`docker-compose.env` file and the `.env` file as well in the same directory.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to enable optional support for Office and other documents, download a
|
||||
file with `-tika` in the file name.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip
|
||||
|
||||
For new installations, it is recommended to use PostgreSQL as the
|
||||
database backend.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Modify `docker-compose.yml` as needed. For example, you may want to change the paths to the
|
||||
consumption, media etc. directories to use 'bind mounts'.
|
||||
Find the line that specifies where to mount the directory, e.g.:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- ./consume:/usr/src/paperless/consume
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Replace the part _before_ the colon with a local directory of your choice:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- /home/jonaswinkler/paperless-inbox:/usr/src/paperless/consume
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You may also want to change the default port that the webserver will
|
||||
use from the default (8000) to something else, e.g. for port 8010:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- 8010:8000
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Rootless**
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
|
||||
It is currently not possible to run the container rootless if additional languages are specified via `PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGES`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to run Paperless as a rootless container, you will need
|
||||
to do the following in your `docker-compose.yml`:
|
||||
|
||||
- set the `user` running the container to map to the `paperless`
|
||||
user in the container. This value (`user_id` below), should be
|
||||
the same id that `USERMAP_UID` and `USERMAP_GID` are set to in
|
||||
the next step. See `USERMAP_UID` and `USERMAP_GID`
|
||||
[here](configuration.md#docker).
|
||||
|
||||
Your entry for Paperless should contain something like:
|
||||
|
||||
> ```
|
||||
> webserver:
|
||||
> image: ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest
|
||||
> user: <user_id>
|
||||
> ```
|
||||
|
||||
4. Modify `docker-compose.env` with any configuration options you'd like.
|
||||
See the [configuration documentation](configuration.md) for all options.
|
||||
|
||||
You may also need to set `USERMAP_UID` and `USERMAP_GID` to
|
||||
the uid and gid of your user on the host system. Use `id -u` and
|
||||
`id -g` to get these. This ensures that both the container and the host
|
||||
user have write access to the consumption directory. If your UID
|
||||
and GID on the host system is 1000 (the default for the first normal
|
||||
user on most systems), it will work out of the box without any
|
||||
modifications. Run `id "username"` to check.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note
|
||||
|
||||
You can utilize Docker secrets for configuration settings by
|
||||
appending `_FILE` to configuration values. For example [`PAPERLESS_DBUSER`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_DBUSER)
|
||||
can be set using `PAPERLESS_DBUSER_FILE=/var/run/secrets/password.txt`.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
|
||||
Some file systems such as NFS network shares don't support file
|
||||
system notifications with `inotify`. When storing the consumption
|
||||
directory on such a file system, paperless will not pick up new
|
||||
files with the default configuration. You will need to use
|
||||
[`PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_POLLING`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_POLLING), which will disable inotify. See
|
||||
[here](configuration.md#polling).
|
||||
|
||||
5. Run `docker compose pull`. This will pull the image from the GitHub container registry
|
||||
by default but you can change the image to pull from Docker Hub by changing the `image`
|
||||
line to `image: paperlessngx/paperless-ngx:latest`.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Run `docker compose up -d`. This will create and start the necessary containers.
|
||||
|
||||
7. Congratulations! Your Paperless-ngx instance should now be accessible at `http://127.0.0.1:8000`
|
||||
(or similar, depending on your configuration). When you first access the web interface, you will be
|
||||
prompted to create a superuser account.
|
||||
|
||||
### Build the Docker image yourself {#docker_build}
|
||||
|
||||
1. Clone the entire repository of paperless:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The main branch always reflects the latest stable version.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Copy one of the `docker/compose/docker-compose.*.yml` to
|
||||
`docker-compose.yml` in the root folder, depending on which database
|
||||
backend you want to use. Copy `docker-compose.env` into the project
|
||||
root as well.
|
||||
|
||||
3. In the `docker-compose.yml` file, find the line that instructs
|
||||
Docker Compose to pull the paperless image from Docker Hub:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
webserver:
|
||||
image: ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and replace it with a line that instructs Docker Compose to build
|
||||
the image from the current working directory instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
webserver:
|
||||
build:
|
||||
context: .
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. Follow the [Docker setup](#docker) above except when asked to run
|
||||
`docker compose pull` to pull the image, run
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
docker compose build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
instead to build the image.
|
||||
|
||||
### Bare Metal Route {#bare_metal}
|
||||
|
||||
Paperless runs on linux only. The following procedure has been tested on
|
||||
a minimal installation of Debian/Buster, which is the current stable
|
||||
release at the time of writing. Windows is not and will never be
|
||||
supported.
|
||||
|
||||
Paperless requires Python 3. At this time, 3.10 - 3.12 are tested versions.
|
||||
Newer versions may work, but some dependencies may not fully support newer versions.
|
||||
Support for older Python versions may be dropped as they reach end of life or as newer versions
|
||||
are released, dependency support is confirmed, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install dependencies. Paperless requires the following packages.
|
||||
|
||||
- `python3`
|
||||
- `python3-pip`
|
||||
- `python3-dev`
|
||||
- `default-libmysqlclient-dev` for MariaDB
|
||||
- `pkg-config` for mysqlclient (python dependency)
|
||||
- `fonts-liberation` for generating thumbnails for plain text
|
||||
files
|
||||
- `imagemagick` >= 6 for PDF conversion
|
||||
- `gnupg` for handling encrypted documents
|
||||
- `libpq-dev` for PostgreSQL
|
||||
- `libmagic-dev` for mime type detection
|
||||
- `mariadb-client` for MariaDB compile time
|
||||
- `libzbar0` for barcode detection
|
||||
- `poppler-utils` for barcode detection
|
||||
|
||||
Use this list for your preferred package management:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 python3-pip python3-dev imagemagick fonts-liberation gnupg libpq-dev default-libmysqlclient-dev pkg-config libmagic-dev libzbar0 poppler-utils
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
These dependencies are required for OCRmyPDF, which is used for text
|
||||
recognition.
|
||||
|
||||
- `unpaper`
|
||||
- `ghostscript`
|
||||
- `icc-profiles-free`
|
||||
- `qpdf`
|
||||
- `liblept5`
|
||||
- `libxml2`
|
||||
- `pngquant` (suggested for certain PDF image optimizations)
|
||||
- `zlib1g`
|
||||
- `tesseract-ocr` >= 4.0.0 for OCR
|
||||
- `tesseract-ocr` language packs (`tesseract-ocr-eng`,
|
||||
`tesseract-ocr-deu`, etc)
|
||||
|
||||
Use this list for your preferred package management:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
unpaper ghostscript icc-profiles-free qpdf liblept5 libxml2 pngquant zlib1g tesseract-ocr
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
On Raspberry Pi, these libraries are required as well:
|
||||
|
||||
- `libatlas-base-dev`
|
||||
- `libxslt1-dev`
|
||||
- `mime-support`
|
||||
|
||||
You will also need these for installing some of the python dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
- `build-essential`
|
||||
- `python3-setuptools`
|
||||
- `python3-wheel`
|
||||
|
||||
Use this list for your preferred package management:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
build-essential python3-setuptools python3-wheel
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Install `redis` >= 6.0 and configure it to start automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Optional. Install `postgresql` and configure a database, user and
|
||||
password for paperless. If you do not wish to use PostgreSQL,
|
||||
MariaDB and SQLite are available as well.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note
|
||||
|
||||
On bare-metal installations using SQLite, ensure the [JSON1
|
||||
extension](https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/JSON1Extension) is
|
||||
enabled. This is usually the case, but not always.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Create a system user with a new home folder under which you wish
|
||||
to run paperless.
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
adduser paperless --system --home /opt/paperless --group
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. Get the release archive from
|
||||
<https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/releases> for example with
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
curl -O -L https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/releases/download/v1.10.2/paperless-ngx-v1.10.2.tar.xz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Extract the archive with
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
tar -xf paperless-ngx-v1.10.2.tar.xz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and copy the contents to the
|
||||
home folder of the user you created before (`/opt/paperless`).
|
||||
|
||||
Optional: If you cloned the git repo, you will have to
|
||||
compile the frontend yourself, see [here](development.md#front-end-development)
|
||||
and use the `build` step, not `serve`.
|
||||
|
||||
6. Configure paperless. See [configuration](configuration.md) for details.
|
||||
Edit the included `paperless.conf` and adjust the settings to your
|
||||
needs. Required settings for getting
|
||||
paperless running are:
|
||||
|
||||
- [`PAPERLESS_REDIS`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_REDIS) should point to your redis server, such as
|
||||
<redis://localhost:6379>.
|
||||
- [`PAPERLESS_DBENGINE`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_DBENGINE) optional, and should be one of `postgres`,
|
||||
`mariadb`, or `sqlite`
|
||||
- [`PAPERLESS_DBHOST`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_DBHOST) should be the hostname on which your
|
||||
PostgreSQL server is running. Do not configure this to use
|
||||
SQLite instead. Also configure port, database name, user and
|
||||
password as necessary.
|
||||
- [`PAPERLESS_CONSUMPTION_DIR`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_CONSUMPTION_DIR) should point to a folder which
|
||||
paperless should watch for documents. You might want to have
|
||||
this somewhere else. Likewise, [`PAPERLESS_DATA_DIR`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_DATA_DIR) and
|
||||
[`PAPERLESS_MEDIA_ROOT`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_MEDIA_ROOT) define where paperless stores its data.
|
||||
If you like, you can point both to the same directory.
|
||||
- [`PAPERLESS_SECRET_KEY`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_SECRET_KEY) should be a random sequence of
|
||||
characters. It's used for authentication. Failure to do so
|
||||
allows third parties to forge authentication credentials.
|
||||
- [`PAPERLESS_URL`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_URL) if you are behind a reverse proxy. This should
|
||||
point to your domain. Please see
|
||||
[configuration](configuration.md) for more
|
||||
information.
|
||||
|
||||
Many more adjustments can be made to paperless, especially the OCR
|
||||
part. The following options are recommended for everyone:
|
||||
|
||||
- Set [`PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGE`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGE) to the language most of your
|
||||
documents are written in.
|
||||
- Set [`PAPERLESS_TIME_ZONE`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_TIME_ZONE) to your local time zone.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
|
||||
Ensure your Redis instance [is secured](https://redis.io/docs/getting-started/#securing-redis).
|
||||
|
||||
7. Create the following directories if they are missing:
|
||||
|
||||
- `/opt/paperless/media`
|
||||
- `/opt/paperless/data`
|
||||
- `/opt/paperless/consume`
|
||||
|
||||
Adjust as necessary if you configured different folders.
|
||||
Ensure that the paperless user has write permissions for every one
|
||||
of these folders with
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
ls -l -d /opt/paperless/media
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If needed, change the owner with
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
sudo chown paperless:paperless /opt/paperless/media
|
||||
sudo chown paperless:paperless /opt/paperless/data
|
||||
sudo chown paperless:paperless /opt/paperless/consume
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
8. Install python requirements from the `requirements.txt` file.
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
sudo -Hu paperless pip3 install -r requirements.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will install all python dependencies in the home directory of
|
||||
the new paperless user.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip
|
||||
|
||||
It is up to you if you wish to use a virtual environment or not for the Python
|
||||
dependencies. This is an alternative to the above and may require adjusting
|
||||
the example scripts to utilize the virtual environment paths
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip
|
||||
|
||||
If you use modern Python tooling, such as `uv`, installation will not include
|
||||
dependencies for Postgres or Mariadb. You can select those extras with `--extra <EXTRA>`
|
||||
or all with `--all-extras`
|
||||
|
||||
9. Go to `/opt/paperless/src`, and execute the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# This creates the database schema.
|
||||
sudo -Hu paperless python3 manage.py migrate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When you first access the web interface you will be prompted to create a superuser account.
|
||||
|
||||
10. Optional: Test that paperless is working by executing
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Manually starts the webserver
|
||||
sudo -Hu paperless python3 manage.py runserver
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and pointing your browser to http://localhost:8000 if
|
||||
accessing from the same devices on which paperless is installed.
|
||||
If accessing from another machine, set up systemd services. You may need
|
||||
to set `PAPERLESS_DEBUG=true` in order for the development server to work
|
||||
normally in your browser.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
|
||||
This is a development server which should not be used in production.
|
||||
It is not audited for security and performance is inferior to
|
||||
production ready web servers.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip
|
||||
|
||||
This will not start the consumer. Paperless does this in a separate
|
||||
process.
|
||||
|
||||
11. Setup systemd services to run paperless automatically. You may use
|
||||
the service definition files included in the `scripts` folder as a
|
||||
starting point.
|
||||
|
||||
Paperless needs the `webserver` script to run the webserver, the
|
||||
`consumer` script to watch the input folder, `taskqueue` for the
|
||||
background workers used to handle things like document consumption
|
||||
and the `scheduler` script to run tasks such as email checking at
|
||||
certain times .
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note
|
||||
|
||||
The `socket` script enables `granian` to run on port 80 without
|
||||
root privileges. For this you need to uncomment the
|
||||
`Require=paperless-webserver.socket` in the `webserver` script
|
||||
and configure `granian` to listen on port 80 (set `GRANIAN_PORT`).
|
||||
|
||||
These services rely on redis and optionally the database server, but
|
||||
don't need to be started in any particular order. The example files
|
||||
depend on redis being started. If you use a database server, you
|
||||
should add additional dependencies.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note
|
||||
|
||||
For instructions on using a reverse proxy,
|
||||
[see the wiki](https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/wiki/Using-a-Reverse-Proxy-with-Paperless-ngx#).
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
|
||||
If celery won't start (check with
|
||||
`sudo systemctl status paperless-task-queue.service` for
|
||||
paperless-task-queue.service and paperless-scheduler.service
|
||||
) you need to change the path in the files. Example:
|
||||
`ExecStart=/opt/paperless/.local/bin/celery --app paperless worker --loglevel INFO`
|
||||
|
||||
12. Optional: Install a samba server and make the consumption folder
|
||||
available as a network share.
|
||||
|
||||
13. Configure ImageMagick to allow processing of PDF documents. Most
|
||||
distributions have this disabled by default, since PDF documents can
|
||||
contain malware. If you don't do this, paperless will fall back to
|
||||
Ghostscript for certain steps such as thumbnail generation.
|
||||
|
||||
Edit `/etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml` and adjust
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PDF" />
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
to
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
<policy domain="coder" rights="read|write" pattern="PDF" />
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
14. Optional: Install the
|
||||
[jbig2enc](https://ocrmypdf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/jbig2.html)
|
||||
encoder. This will reduce the size of generated PDF documents.
|
||||
You'll most likely need to compile this by yourself, because this
|
||||
software has been patented until around 2017 and binary packages are
|
||||
not available for most distributions.
|
||||
|
||||
15. Optional: If using the NLTK machine learning processing (see

# Migrating to Paperless-ngx
|
||||
|
||||
Migration is possible both from Paperless-ng or directly from the
|
||||
'original' Paperless.
|
||||
|
||||
## Migrating from Paperless-ng
|
||||
|
||||
Paperless-ngx is meant to be a drop-in replacement for Paperless-ng and
|
||||
thus upgrading should be trivial for most users, especially when using
|
||||
docker. However, as with any major change, it is recommended to take a
|
||||
full backup first. Once you are ready, simply change the docker image to
|
||||
point to the new source. E.g. if using Docker Compose, edit
|
||||
`docker-compose.yml` and change:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
image: jonaswinkler/paperless-ng:latest
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
to
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
image: ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and then run `docker compose up -d` which will pull the new image
|
||||
recreate the container. That's it!
|
||||
|
||||
Users who installed with the bare-metal route should also update their
|
||||
Git clone to point to `https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx`,
|
||||
e.g. using the command
|
||||
`git remote set-url origin https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx`
|
||||
and then pull the latest version.
|
||||
|
||||
## Migrating from Paperless
|
||||
|
||||
At its core, paperless-ngx is still paperless and fully compatible.
|
||||
However, some things have changed under the hood, so you need to adapt
|
||||
your setup depending on how you installed paperless.
|
||||
|
||||
This setup describes how to update an existing paperless Docker
|
||||
installation. The important things to keep in mind are as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
- Read the [changelog](changelog.md) and
|
||||
take note of breaking changes.
|
||||
- You should decide if you want to stick with SQLite or want to
|
||||
migrate your database to PostgreSQL. See [documentation](#sqlite_to_psql)
|
||||
for details on
|
||||
how to move your data from SQLite to PostgreSQL. Both work fine with
|
||||
paperless. However, if you already have a database server running
|
||||
for other services, you might as well use it for paperless as well.
|
||||
- The task scheduler of paperless, which is used to execute periodic
|
||||
tasks such as email checking and maintenance, requires a
|
||||
[redis](https://redis.io/) message broker instance. The
|
||||
Docker Compose route takes care of that.
|
||||
- The layout of the folder structure for your documents and data
|
||||
remains the same, so you can just plug your old docker volumes into
|
||||
paperless-ngx and expect it to find everything where it should be.
|
||||
|
||||
Migration to paperless-ngx is then performed in a few simple steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Stop paperless.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cd /path/to/current/paperless
|
||||
docker compose down
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Do a backup for two purposes: If something goes wrong, you still
|
||||
have your data. Second, if you don't like paperless-ngx, you can
|
||||
switch back to paperless.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Download the latest release of paperless-ngx. You can either go with
|
||||
the Docker Compose files from
|
||||
[here](https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/tree/main/docker/compose)
|
||||
or clone the repository to build the image yourself (see
|
||||
[above](#docker_build)). You can
|
||||
either replace your current paperless folder or put paperless-ngx in
|
||||
a different location.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
|
||||
Paperless-ngx includes a `.env` file. This will set the project name
|
||||
for docker compose to `paperless`, which will also define the name
|
||||
of the volumes by paperless-ngx. However, if you experience that
|
||||
paperless-ngx is not using your old paperless volumes, verify the
|
||||
names of your volumes with
|
||||
|
||||
``` shell-session
|
||||
docker volume ls | grep _data
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
and adjust the project name in the `.env` file so that it matches
|
||||
the name of the volumes before the `_data` part.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Download the `docker-compose.sqlite.yml` file to
|
||||
`docker-compose.yml`. If you want to switch to PostgreSQL, do that
|
||||
after you migrated your existing SQLite database.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Adjust `docker-compose.yml` and `docker-compose.env` to your needs.
|
||||
See [Docker setup](#docker) details on
|
||||
which edits are advised.
|
||||
|
||||
6. [Update paperless.](administration.md#updating)
|
||||
|
||||
7. In order to find your existing documents with the new search
|
||||
feature, you need to invoke a one-time operation that will create
|
||||
the search index:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
docker compose run --rm webserver document_index reindex
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will migrate your database and create the search index. After
|
||||
that, paperless will take care of maintaining the index by itself.
|
||||
|
||||
8. Start paperless-ngx.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker compose up -d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will run paperless in the background and automatically start it
|
||||
on system boot.
|
||||
|
||||
9. Paperless installed a permanent redirect to `admin/` in your
|
||||
browser. This redirect is still in place and prevents access to the
|
||||
new UI. Clear your browsing cache in order to fix this.
|
||||
|
||||
10. Optionally, follow the instructions below to migrate your existing
|
||||
data to PostgreSQL.
|
||||
|
||||
## Migrating from LinuxServer.io Docker Image
|
||||
|
||||
As with any upgrades and large changes, it is highly recommended to
|
||||
create a backup before starting. This assumes the image was running
|
||||
using Docker Compose, but the instructions are translatable to Docker
|
||||
commands as well.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Stop and remove the paperless container
|
||||
2. If using an external database, stop the container
|
||||
3. Update Redis configuration
|
||||
|
||||
1. If `REDIS_URL` is already set, change it to [`PAPERLESS_REDIS`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_REDIS)
|
||||
and continue to step 4.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Otherwise, in the `docker-compose.yml` add a new service for
|
||||
Redis, following [the example compose
|
||||
files](https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx/tree/main/docker/compose)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Set the environment variable [`PAPERLESS_REDIS`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_REDIS) so it points to
|
||||
the new Redis container
|
||||
|
||||
4. Update user mapping
|
||||
|
||||
1. If set, change the environment variable `PUID` to `USERMAP_UID`
|
||||
|
||||
1. If set, change the environment variable `PGID` to `USERMAP_GID`
|
||||
|
||||
5. Update configuration paths
|
||||
|
||||
1. Set the environment variable [`PAPERLESS_DATA_DIR`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_DATA_DIR) to `/config`
|
||||
|
||||
6. Update media paths
|
||||
|
||||
1. Set the environment variable [`PAPERLESS_MEDIA_ROOT`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_MEDIA_ROOT) to
|
||||
`/data/media`
|
||||
|
||||
7. Update timezone
|
||||
|
||||
1. Set the environment variable [`PAPERLESS_TIME_ZONE`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_TIME_ZONE) to the same
|
||||
value as `TZ`
|
||||
|
||||
8. Modify the `image:` to point to
|
||||
`ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest` or a specific version
|
||||
if preferred.
|
||||
9. Start the containers as before, using `docker compose`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Moving data from SQLite to PostgreSQL or MySQL/MariaDB {#sqlite_to_psql}
|
||||
|
||||
The best way to migrate between database types is to perform an [export](administration.md#exporter) and then
|
||||
[import](administration.md#importer) into a clean installation of Paperless-ngx.
|
||||
|
||||
## Moving back to Paperless
|
||||
|
||||
Lets say you migrated to Paperless-ngx and used it for a while, but
|
||||
decided that you don't like it and want to move back (If you do, send
|
||||
me a mail about what part you didn't like!), you can totally do that
|
||||
with a few simple steps.
|
||||
|
||||
Paperless-ngx modified the database schema slightly, however, these
|
||||
changes can be reverted while keeping your current data, so that your
|
||||
current data will be compatible with original Paperless. Thumbnails
|
||||
were also changed from PNG to WEBP format and will need to be
|
||||
re-generated.
|
||||
|
||||
Execute this:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
$ cd /path/to/paperless
|
||||
$ docker compose run --rm webserver migrate documents 0023
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or without docker:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell-session
|
||||
$ cd /path/to/paperless/src
|
||||
$ python3 manage.py migrate documents 0023
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After regenerating thumbnails, you'll need to clear your cookies
|
||||
(Paperless-ngx comes with updated dependencies that do cookie-processing
|
||||
differently) and probably your cache as well.
|
||||
|
||||
# Considerations for less powerful devices {#less-powerful-devices}
|
||||
|
||||
Paperless runs on Raspberry Pi. However, some things are rather slow on
|
||||
the Pi and configuring some options in paperless can help improve
|
||||
performance immensely:
|
||||
|
||||
- Stick with SQLite to save some resources. See [troubleshooting](troubleshooting.md#log-reports-creating-paperlesstask-failed)
|
||||
if you encounter issues with SQLite locking.
|
||||
- If you do not need the filesystem-based consumer, consider disabling it
|
||||
entirely by setting [`PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_DISABLE`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_DISABLE) to `true`.
|
||||
- Consider setting [`PAPERLESS_OCR_PAGES`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_OCR_PAGES) to 1, so that paperless will
|
||||
only OCR the first page of your documents. In most cases, this page
|
||||
contains enough information to be able to find it.
|
||||
- [`PAPERLESS_TASK_WORKERS`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_TASK_WORKERS) and [`PAPERLESS_THREADS_PER_WORKER`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_THREADS_PER_WORKER) are
|
||||
configured to use all cores. The Raspberry Pi models 3 and up have 4
|
||||
cores, meaning that paperless will use 2 workers and 2 threads per
|
||||
worker. This may result in sluggish response times during
|
||||
consumption, so you might want to lower these settings (example: 2
|
||||
workers and 1 thread to always have some computing power left for
|
||||
other tasks).
|
||||
- Keep [`PAPERLESS_OCR_MODE`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_OCR_MODE) at its default value `skip` and consider
|
||||
OCR'ing your documents before feeding them into paperless. Some
|
||||
scanners are able to do this!
|
||||
- Set [`PAPERLESS_OCR_SKIP_ARCHIVE_FILE`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_OCR_SKIP_ARCHIVE_FILE) to `with_text` to skip archive
|
||||
file generation for already ocr'ed documents, or `always` to skip it
|
||||
for all documents.
|
||||
- If you want to perform OCR on the device, consider using
|
||||
`PAPERLESS_OCR_CLEAN=none`. This will speed up OCR times and use
|
||||
less memory at the expense of slightly worse OCR results.
|
||||
- If using docker, consider setting [`PAPERLESS_WEBSERVER_WORKERS`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_WEBSERVER_WORKERS) to 1. This will save some memory.
|
||||
- Consider setting [`PAPERLESS_ENABLE_NLTK`](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_ENABLE_NLTK) to false, to disable the
|
||||
more advanced language processing, which can take more memory and
|
||||
processing time.
|
||||
|
||||
For details, refer to [configuration](configuration.md).
|
||||
|
||||
!!! note
|
||||
|
||||
Updating the
|
||||
[automatic matching algorithm](advanced_usage.md#automatic-matching) takes quite a bit of time. However, the update mechanism
|
||||
checks if your data has changed before doing the heavy lifting. If you
|
||||
experience the algorithm taking too much cpu time, consider changing the
|
||||
schedule in the admin interface to daily. You can also manually invoke
|
||||
the task by changing the date and time of the next run to today/now.
|
||||
|
||||
The actual matching of the algorithm is fast and works on Raspberry Pi
|
||||
as well as on any other device.
