## ⌨️ Setup
> Note: Pingvin Share is in its early stages and may contain bugs.
### Installation with Docker (recommended)
1. Download the `docker-compose.yml` file
2. Run `docker-compose up -d`
The website is now listening on `http://localhost:3000`, have fun with Pingvin Share 🐧!
### Stand-alone Installation
Required tools:
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) >= 16
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
- [pm2](https://pm2.keymetrics.io/) for running Pingvin Share in the background
```bash
git clone https://github.com/stonith404/pingvin-share
cd pingvin-share
# Checkout the latest version
git fetch --tags && git checkout $(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`)
# Start the backend
cd backend
npm install
npm run build
pm2 start --name="pingvin-share-backend" npm -- run prod
# Start the frontend
cd ../frontend
npm install
npm run build
pm2 start --name="pingvin-share-frontend" npm -- run start
```
The website is now listening on `http://localhost:3000`, have fun with Pingvin Share 🐧!
### Integrations
#### ClamAV (Docker only)
ClamAV is used to scan shares for malicious files and remove them if found.
1. Add the ClamAV container to the Docker Compose stack (see `docker-compose.yml`) and start the container.
2. Docker will wait for ClamAV to start before starting Pingvin Share. This may take a minute or two.
3. The Pingvin Share logs should now log "ClamAV is active"
Please note that ClamAV needs a lot of [ressources](https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Installing/Docker.html#memory-ram-requirements).
