Install ONLYOFFICE

We can install ONLYOFFICE in two different methods.
  1. Install ONLYOFFICE Using Docker ;
  2. Install ONLYOFFICE Using Repository.

1. Install ONLYOFFICE Using Docker

Installing Prerequisites:

To deploy and run ONLYOFFICE Online Editors, you will need Docker v.1.4.1 or later installed on your machine.
Just to remind, Docker is an open-source project that automates the deployment of applications inside software containers.
To install Docker on Ubuntu and CentOS, refer the following link.
Also, the installation instructions for a lot of Linux distributions are available on the Docker official website.
Next, We have to install Docker compose.
First, install ‘pip; package using command:
sudo apt-get install python-pip
In Fedora:
sudo yum install python-pip
Now, install docker-compose package using command:
sudo pip install -U docker-compose
That’s it. To verify docker-compose installation, run:
docker-compose --version
Sample output:
docker-compose 1.2.0

Install ONLYOFFICE Free Edition:

Now, Install the whole ONLYOFFICE Free Edition at once using the following commands:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ONLYOFFICE/Docker-CommunityServer/master/docker-compose.yml
sudo docker-compose up -d
Sample output:
Creating sk_documentserver_1...
Pulling image onlyoffice/documentserver:latest...
Pulling repository onlyoffice/documentserver
ddf4d6a0999b: Pulling dependent layers
e9e06b06e14c: Downloading    20 MB
.
.
.
Docker will pull all three servers (Community, Document, and Mail) along with all dependencies. This will take a while depending upon your Internet connection speed.
After installing all Docker images, verify them using command:
sudo docker images
Sample output:
REPOSITORY                   TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED             VIRTUAL SIZE
onlyoffice/communityserver   latest              c9658f59b752        11 days ago         1.183 GB
onlyoffice/documentserver    latest              ddf4d6a0999b        2 weeks ago         1.837 GB
onlyoffice/mailserver        latest              47ca4c54969c        5 weeks ago         1.22 GB
As you see above, the three Docker images have been downloaded.
Now, let us run a server, for example Document server, using command:
sudo docker run -i -t -d -p 80:80 onlyoffice/documentserver
Sample output:
2ea7863af76013b30855de36321dfe4850c9479cc15955f706b8bc35db302fd5
To view the list of running Docker images, run:
sudo docker ps
Sample Output:
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
2ea7863af760 onlyoffice/documentserver:latest "/bin/sh -c 'bash -C 6 minutes ago Up 6 minutes 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp, 443/tcp gloomy_pasteur
That’s it.
Similarly, you can run all other Docker images(ONLYOFFICE Community/mail server etc) as shown above. Be mindful that you must run each server on different port.
For more details about working with Docker images, refer the following tutorial.
