How do I use Strapi?

Apps 108 views Markdown
  1. In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
  2. On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "Strapi is ready". The page refreshes itself.
  3. Open the link in the Panel address row and enter the details from the Email and Password rows.

Adding a content type

Strapi runs in production mode, where the Content-Type Builder is read-only. Prepare new content types in development mode on your computer and bring the code to the server. Connect over SSH, then:

su - app

cd ~/proje

npm run build

pm2 restart uygulama

Good to know

  • The database is SQLite: ~/proje/.tmp/data.db. For PostgreSQL, change config/database.ts.
  • Settings are in the ~/proje/.env file.

Your own domain

  1. Point your domain's A record to your server's IP address.
  2. As root, replace the old name everywhere: sed -i 's/OLD_NAME/yourdomain.com/g' /etc/caddy/Caddyfile. OLD_NAME is the part after https:// in the address shown in the panel.
  3. Run systemctl reload caddy.

Caddy gets and renews the certificate by itself.

Also write your domain into PUBLIC_URL in the .env file. Only 80, 443 and 22 for SSH are open to the outside.

No server yet? Order a server with Strapi installed: you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
