# Install your own ntfy server
The following steps are only required if you want to **self-host your own ntfy server**. If you just want to
[send messages using ntfy.sh](publish.md), you don't need to install anything. Just use `curl`
or your favorite HTTP client.
## General steps
The ntfy server comes as a statically linked binary and is shipped as tarball, deb/rpm packages and as a Docker image.
We support amd64, armv7 and arm64.
1. Install ntfy using one of the methods described below
2. Then (optionally) edit `/etc/ntfy/config.yml` (see [configuration](config.md))
3. Then just run it with `ntfy` (or `systemctl start ntfy` when using the deb/rpm).
## Binaries and packages
Please check out the [releases page](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/releases) for binaries and
deb/rpm packages.
**x86_64/amd64:**
```
wget https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/releases/download/v1.5.0/ntfy_1.5.0_linux_x86_64.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/bin -zxf ntfy_*.tar.gz ntfy
```
**armv7:**
```
wget https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/releases/download/v1.5.0/ntfy_1.5.0_linux_armv7.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/bin -zxf ntfy_*.tar.gz ntfy
```
**arm64/v8:**
```
wget https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/releases/download/v1.5.0/ntfy_1.5.0_linux_arm64.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/bin -zxf ntfy_*.tar.gz ntfy
```
## Debian/Ubuntu repository
Installation via Debian repository:
```bash
curl -sSL https://archive.heckel.io/apt/pubkey.txt | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt install apt-transport-https
sudo sh -c "echo 'deb [arch=amd64] https://archive.heckel.io/apt debian main' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/archive.heckel.io.list"
sudo apt update
sudo apt install ntfy
```
Manually installing the .deb file:
```bash
wget https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/releases/download/v1.5.0/ntfy_1.5.0_amd64.deb
dpkg -i ntfy_1.5.0_amd64.deb
```
## Fedora/RHEL/CentOS
```bash
rpm -ivh https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/releases/download/v1.5.0/ntfy_1.5.0_amd64.rpm
```
## Docker
The ntfy server exposes its web UI and the API on port 80, so you need to expose that in Docker. To use the persistent
message cache, you also need to map a volume to `/var/cache/ntfy`. To change other settings, you should map `/etc/ntfy`,
so you can edit `/etc/ntfy/config.yml`.
Basic usage (no cache or additional config):
```
docker run -p 80:80 -it binwiederhier/ntfy
```
With persistent cache (configured as command line arguments):
```bash
docker run \
-v /var/cache/ntfy:/var/cache/ntfy \
-p 80:80 \
-it \
binwiederhier/ntfy \
--cache-file /var/cache/ntfy/cache.db
```
With other config options (configured via `/etc/ntfy/config.yml`, see [configuration](config.md) for details):
```bash
docker run \
-v /etc/ntfy:/etc/ntfy \
-p 80:80 \
-it \
binwiederhier/ntfy
```
## Go
To install via Go, simply run:
```bash
go install heckel.io/ntfy@latest
```
!!! info
Please [let me know](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues) if there are any issues with this installation
method. The SQLite bindings require CGO and it works for me, but I have the feeling it may not work for everyone.
