Setting up a kbin instance. Need help with .env file.

I'm experimenting with setting up a kbin instance but struggling with understanding what's up and down in the .env file. What additional services do I need to install? Do I need to setup and configure smtp for sending mails? Should I change the domain to my intended domain name, or do I have to wait until I have a reverse proxy etc. set up?

Anyone have any experiences to share or an example of a configuration?

  • Yes. You could use mailgun.com for example for sending mails. You get 10K free I believe and it's easy to setup

    For the hostname aka domain change it to your own, likewise with passwords for each installed service. Like the docs say, most services are additional and not required ;-)
