To bundle the whole project into a self-contained uber-jar you need to follow these build steps:
npm i
npm run build
clojure -T:frontend:build uberjarAfter the last command is completed, you’ll get a path to the uber-jar, which you can run like this:
java -jar target/tubo-<VERSION>.jarFor Docker, there’s an image available in Docker Hub you can use:
docker pull migalmoreno/tubo
docker run --publish 3000:3000 -d --name tubo migalmoreno/tubo:latestThere’s also a Docker Compose file available which you can run like this:
docker compose up -dIf you want to self-host Tubo and make it publicly accessible you’ll need to set up a reverse proxy. The following shows some example configurations for various web servers:
server {
listen 443 ssl http2;
server_name <TUBO_HOST>;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/<TUBO_HOST>/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/<TUBO_HOST>/privkey.pem;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;
}
}| URL | Country |
