Deployment

The simplest way to use !3 is to visit our hosted instance at https://not-th.re.

Micro

The micro deployment does not bring its own UI, but you can use the public UI.

services:
  api:
    image: ghcr.io/not-three/api:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      CORS_ENABLED: true
      LIMITS_DISABLED: true
      INSTANCE_PASSWORD: MySecretPassword
    ports:
      - 4000:4000
    volumes:
      - db:/data/db

volumes:
  db:

After you have deployed the API, visit the public UI go to Tools -> Edit Settings and update these values:

{
  "customServer": {
    "url": "http://<ip-of-the-server>:4000/",
    "password": "MySecretPassword"
  }
}

Dont forget to save the settings, by clicking on File -> Save (or by pressing ctrl + s).

Minimal

The minimal deployment includes both the API and the UI. The UI has the proxy mode enabled, so you only need a single port.

x-restart: &restart
  restart: unless-stopped

services:
  api:
    image: ghcr.io/not-three/api:latest
    <<: *restart
    volumes:
      - db:/data/db

  ui:
    image: ghcr.io/not-three/ui:latest
    <<: *restart
    ports:
      - 4000:4000
    depends_on:
      - api
    environment:
      PROXY_URL: http://api:3000

volumes:
  db:

Simple

An simple deployment, including a postgres database instead of sqlite. Recommended if you want to store more than a few pastes.

x-restart: &restart
  restart: unless-stopped

services:
  api:
    image: ghcr.io/not-three/api:latest
    <<: *restart
    depends_on:
      - db
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    environment:
      CORS_ENABLED: true
      CORS_ORIGIN: http://localhost:4000
      DATABASE_MODE: pg
      DATABASE_HOST: db
      DATABASE_USERNAME: db
      DATABASE_PASSWORD: db
      DATABASE_NAME: db

  ui:
    image: ghcr.io/not-three/ui:latest
    <<: *restart
    ports:
      - 4000:4000
    environment:
      API_URL: http://localhost:3000
      TERMS_OF_SERVICE_URL: https://example.com

  db:
    image: postgres:14.5
    <<: *restart
    environment:
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: db
      POSTGRES_USER: db
      POSTGRES_DB: db
    volumes:
      - db:/var/lib/postgresql/data

volumes:
  db:

Advanced

See one of the following files for a more detailed example:

• docker-compose.yml
• docker-compose.swarm.yml

These include horizontal scaling, health checks and traefik as a reverse proxy.

Environment variables

For a full list, with detailed descriptions of all environment variables, see the configuration documentation.

Helm

As of now, we do not have an official helm chart, if you want to contribute one, feel free to open a PR.

Static site deployment

In some scenarios, you might want to deploy the static site without a backend, for example not-th.re is deployed with Cloudflare Pages, while the API is hosted on api.not-th.re.

The static site can then be configured by editing the config.json file.

{ "baseURL": "https://api.not-th.re/", "termsURL": "https://scolasti.co/go/privacy" }

You can download the client bundle from one of the following sources:

Github Releases

All stable versions of the client are available as a github release artifact.

Docker

docker run --rm --entrypoint /bin/sh -v $(pwd):/mnt ghcr.io/not-three/ui:latest -c "cp -r /app/public/ /mnt/public/"

This will copy the public folder to your current working directory.

Github Actions

The nightly (unstable) versions of the client are also available as a github action artifacts.
