Deploying NoteGraph

VPS Setup (First Time)

1. SSH into VPS and set up

ssh root@217.160.174.2

cd /opt
git clone https://github.com/DoctoDre/NoteGraph.git
cd NoteGraph

# Configure
cp .env.example .env
nano .env
# Set: SB_USER=admin:yourpassword

2. Add Caddy reverse proxy entry

Add to /etc/caddy/Caddyfile:

notes.andreknie.de {
    reverse_proxy localhost:3000
}

Then reload:

systemctl reload caddy

3. Start

docker compose up -d

4. DNS

Add an A record: notes.andreknie.de → 217.160.174.2

5. Access

Open https://notes.andreknie.de — log in with the credentials from .env.

Subsequent Deploys

Push to main → GitHub Actions deploys automatically (pulls + restarts containers).

Git-Backed Notes

The git-sync container auto-commits note changes every 5 minutes. To push these to GitHub, set up a deploy key or token on the VPS:

cd /opt/NoteGraph/notes
git remote add origin https://github.com/DoctoDre/NoteGraph.git
# Or use SSH key for push access

Architecture

SilverBullet runs on port 3000 (Docker)
Caddy handles HTTPS + reverse proxy
Notes stored as markdown in ./notes/ (mounted volume)
Git-sync container auto-commits changes
