Docker setup
Docker is the quick and easy way to try out Standard Notes. We highly recommend using our official Docker hub image.
Standalone instance
Before you start make sure you have a .env file copied from the sample .env.sample and configured with your parameters.
If your intention is not contributing but just running the app we recommend using our official image from Docker hub like this:
docker run -d -p 3001:3001 --env-file=your-env-file standardnotes/web:stable
Or if you want to use the develop branch that is in a work-in-progress state please use:
docker run -d -p 3001:3001 --env-file=your-env-file standardnotes/web:latest
You can then access the app at http://localhost:3001 (please check Docker container logs if the server has started already and is listening on connections).
Running Locally
This repo contains the core code used in the web app, as well as the Electron-based desktop application.
Instructions:
- Ensure you have Yarn installed
- Clone the repo
yarn setupyarn start
Then open your browser to http://localhost:3001.
Extensions Manager and Batch Manager:
The web app makes use of two optional native extensions, which, when running the app with Rails, can be configured to work as follows:
git submodule update --init(will load the submodules in thepublic/extensionsfolder)- Set the following environment variables in the .env file:
EXTENSIONS_MANAGER_LOCATION=extensions/extensions-manager/dist/index.html
You can also set the SF_DEFAULT_SERVER and SF_NEXT_VERSION_SERVER environment variables to set the default servers for login and registration.
Note: SF_NEXT_VERSION_SERVER can point to the same server. It is used for gradual upgrade of API versions.
SF_DEFAULT_SERVER=https://sync.myserver
SF_NEXT_VERSION_SERVER=https://sync.myserver

Contributing
For contributing we highly recommend you use our docker-compose setup that is provided in this repository.
Docker compose setup
Use the included docker-compose.yml file to build Standard Notes with docker-compose. Once your .env file has been copied and configured, simply run:
docker-compose up -d
This should load the app container and run the necessary scripts. You should then be able to reach the app at http://localhost:3001
