Misskey Setup and Installation Guide

We thank you for your interest in setting up your Misskey server! This guide describes how to install and setup Misskey.

Japanese version also available - 日本語版もあります


1. Create Misskey user

Running misskey as root is not a good idea so we create a user for that. In debian for exemple :

adduser --disabled-password --disabled-login misskey

2. Install dependencies

Please install and setup these softwares:

Dependencies 📦

Optional

3. Install Misskey

  1. Connect to misskey user.

    su - misskey

  2. Clone the misskey repo from master branch.

    git clone -b master git://github.com/syuilo/misskey.git

  3. Navigate to misskey directory

    cd misskey

  4. Checkout to the latest release

    git checkout master

  5. Install misskey dependencies.

    npm install

4. Configure Misskey

  1. Copy the .config/example.yml and rename it to default.yml.

    cp .config/example.yml .config/default.yml

  2. Edit default.yml

5. Build Misskey

Build misskey with the following:

NODE_ENV=production npm run build

If you're on Debian, you will need to install the build-essential, python package.

If you're still encountering errors about some modules, use node-gyp:

  1. npm install -g node-gyp
  2. node-gyp configure
  3. node-gyp build
  4. NODE_ENV=production npm run build

6. Init DB

npm run init

7. That is it.

Well done! Now, you have an environment that run to Misskey.

Launch normally

Just NODE_ENV=production npm start. GLHF!

Launch with systemd

  1. Create a systemd service here

    /etc/systemd/system/misskey.service

  2. Edit it, and paste this and save:

    [Unit]
    Description=Misskey daemon
    
    [Service]
    Type=simple
    User=misskey
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/npm start
    WorkingDirectory=/home/misskey/misskey
    Environment="NODE_ENV=production"
    TimeoutSec=60
    StandardOutput=syslog
    StandardError=syslog
    SyslogIdentifier=misskey
    Restart=always
    
    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target
    
  3. Reload systemd and enable the misskey service.

    systemctl daemon-reload ; systemctl enable misskey

  4. Start the misskey service.

    systemctl start misskey

You can check if the service is running with systemctl status misskey.
