Installation

K-Box can be installed on most operating systems. The setup is heavily based on Docker.

Prerequisites

Simplest installation

These few commands allow you to quickly install a K-Box locally on your computer for testing purposes.

  • Create a directory: mkdir k-box && cd k-box
  • Download configuration file: curl -o docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/k-box/k-box/master/docker-compose.example.yml
  • Start up services: docker-compose up -d or sudo docker-compose up -d, depending on your configuration of Docker (when running this for the first time, it will download a lot of data and take a while)
  • Create the administrator: docker-compose exec kbox php artisan create-admin admin@kbox.local or sudo docker-compose exec kbox php artisan create-admin admin@kbox.local, depending on your configuration of Docker
  • Visit your K-Box: http://localhost:8080 (you can login to the K-Box with the username admin@kbox.local and the chosen password).

For installation on a server in the Internet or more configuration options, see the documentation on installation of the K-Box.
