10### From Source
11First configure .env.example and save it to .env
12
13If DATABASE_URL is set, it will connect to a Postgres DB. If blank, it will use an sqlite db in /data
14
15```bash
16#set api-domain to where you will be deploying the link shortener, eg: link.example.com, default is localhost:8080
17git clone https://github.com/waveringana/simplelink && cd simplelink
18./build.sh api-domain=localhost:8080
19cargo run
20```
21
22On an empty database, an admin-setup-token.txt is created as well as pasted into the terminal output. This is needed to make the admin account.
23
24Alternatively if you want a binary form
25```bash
26./build.sh --binary
27```
28then check /target/release for the binary named `SimpleGit`
29
30### From Docker
31```bash
32docker build --build-arg API_URL=http://localhost:8080 -t simplelink .
33docker run -p 8080:8080 \
34 -e JWT_SECRET=change-me-in-production \
35 -v simplelink_data:/data \
36 simplelink
