Cómo instalar Obsidian usando Docker compose

Introduction

This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Obsidian using Docker Compose. Obsidian is a powerful document management software, ideal for note-taking and building a personal knowledge system. By utilizing Docker, you can easily manage the environment in which Obsidian runs, making installation and updates simpler.

Step 1: Install Docker and Docker Compose

Before you begin, ensure you have Docker and Docker Compose installed on your machine.

• For Docker Installation:

  • Visit the Docker website and download Docker Desktop for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
  • Follow the installation instructions provided on the site.

• For Docker Compose Installation:

  • Docker Compose is included with Docker Desktop, but if you're on Linux, you might need to install it separately. Follow the instructions on the Docker Compose documentation.

Step 2: Clone the Obsidian Repository

You need to clone the repository containing the Docker configuration for Obsidian.

• Open your terminal.
• Run the following command to clone the repository:

  git clone https://github.com/jmlcas/obsidian
  

• Change into the cloned directory:

  cd obsidian
  

Step 3: Configure Docker Compose

Before you run Obsidian, you may want to check the docker-compose.yml file to configure settings as needed.

• Open the docker-compose.yml file in a text editor.
• Review and adjust configurations such as ports or volumes as necessary for your environment.

Step 4: Start Obsidian with Docker Compose

Now you're ready to start Obsidian using Docker Compose.

• Run the following command in your terminal:

  docker-compose up -d
  

• The -d flag runs the containers in detached mode, allowing them to run in the background.

Step 5: Access Obsidian

Once Obsidian is running, you can access it through your web browser.

• Open your preferred browser.
• Navigate to http://localhost:YOUR_PORT (replace YOUR_PORT with the port specified in your docker-compose.yml).

Conclusion

You have successfully installed Obsidian using Docker Compose. This setup allows you to manage your notes and ideas effectively. As a next step, you might explore Obsidian's features and capabilities through its documentation on the Obsidian website or dive deeper into Markdown with the linked tutorial. Happy note-taking!
