Do any of you self-host Overleaf? I know there is a Docker project, but from what I’ve heard it’s not easy to install. The Yunohost version used to work but didn’t support file upload, so that makes it bad too.
Have any of you successfully installed Overleaf with e.g. Docker and it works just fine? If so, could any of you share e.g. the Docker Compose file?
Yeah, I don’t really like using Docker so I always go for easier option, but my friend uses Docker a lot and also had troubles with Overleaf.
I don’t work for university, but I am a student that needs Latex. Overleaf free plan got really bad, even my thesis cannot be compiled now and Overleaf pricing isn’t really great. Student pricing is only for annually subscription, so it is not ideal for me.
Usually docker is the easiest option as you don’t have to install a lot of dependencies, then set up other services and databases and whatnot. Especially if you use docker-compose.
The easier option is hunting for Docker Compose…
A Docker Compose is literally just a bunch of Docker commands in yaml format. Can’t say I understand how one can be any easier or harder than the other, considering they basically directly map one to another.
There’s even a website that translates it for you: https://www.composerize.com/
Yeah, Even Dockge can do that
So…? 🤷♀️
What? xD
I know, That’s why I said I always look for Docker Compose bc it is the easier option.
