Installation

Binary

  • Download the latest release and extract the listmonk binary.
  • ./listmonk --new-config to generate config.toml. Then, edit the file.
  • ./listmonk --install to setup the Postgres DB.
  • Run ./listmonk and visit http://localhost:9000.

Docker

The latest image is available on DockerHub at listmonk/listmonk:latest

Use the sample docker-compose.yml to run listmonk and Postgres DB with docker-compose as follows:

Demo

wget -O docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/knadh/listmonk/master/docker-compose.yml
docker-compose up -d demo-db demo-app

The demo does not persist Postgres after the containers are removed. DO NOT use this demo setup in production.

Production

  • wget -O docker-compose.yml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/knadh/listmonk/master/docker-compose.yml to download the docker-compose.yml locally.
  • docker-compose up db to run the Postgres DB.
  • docker-compose run --rm app ./listmonk --install to setup the DB.
  • Run docker-compose up app db and visit http://localhost:9000.

Mounting a custom config.toml

To mount a local config.toml file, add the following section to docker-compose.yml:

  app:
    <<: *app-defaults
    depends_on:
      - db
    volume:
    - ./path/on/your/host/config.toml/:/listmonk/config.toml

This will mount the local config.toml inside the container at listmonk/config.toml. The example docker-compose.yml file works with Docker Engine 18.06.0+ and docker-compose which supports file format 3.7.
