## Roadmap

[4ga Boards Roadmap](https://github.com/RARgames/4gaBoards/issues/472)

## Deploy

1. [Docker Compose (Recommended)](https://docs.4gaboards.com/docs/dev/install/docker-install)
2. [Kubernetes](https://docs.4gaboards.com/docs/dev/install/k8s-install)
3. [TrueNAS](https://docs.4gaboards.com/docs/dev/install/truenas-install)
4. [Manual](https://docs.4gaboards.com/docs/dev/install/manual)

### Docker Compose (Recommended)

Requirements: [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/install), [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install)

**Download `docker-compose.yml`** _(or create `docker-compose.yml` based on [the example](https://github.com/RARgames/4gaBoards/blob/main/docker-compose.yml))_

```bash
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RARgames/4gaBoards/main/docker-compose.yml -o docker-compose.yml
```

**Configure 4ga Boards instance variables**

Configure `environment` sections in `docker-compose.yml`:

Edit `BASE_URL` to match your domain name or IP address.\
Edit `SECRET_KEY` with a random value. You can generate it by `openssl rand -hex 64`.\
Edit `POSTGRES_PASSWORD` and `DATABASE_URL` replacing `notpassword` with randomly generated db password.\
[4ga Boards instance variables](https://docs.4gaboards.com/docs/dev/install/docker-vars)

**Pull images and start 4ga Boards**

```bash
docker compose up -d
```

Default 4ga Boards url: http://localhost:3000 \
Default user: `demo`\
Default password: `demo`

## Backup and Restore

Before executing backup/restore scripts, change current directory to the directory where `docker-compose.yml` is located.

**Backup 4ga Boards instance data**

```bash
./boards-backup.sh
```

**Restore 4ga Boards instance data**

```bash
./boards-restore.sh 4gaBoards-backup.tgz
```

_You can use any relative path._

When restoring, the password has to match docker-compose password (If you don't remember it, you can set new password in docker-compose, but you have to skip altering the default user in backup.tgz/postgres.sql file e.g. comment line `ALTER ROLE postgres WITH SUPERUSER INHERIT CREATEROLE CREATEDB LOGIN REPLICATION BYPASSRLS PASSWORD 'XXX'` before restoring the backup).

It's already available in 4ga Boards. Just add a project, then click Import while creating a new board.
