Additionally, what makes Pocket ID special is that it only supports [passkey](https://www.passkeys.io/) authentication, which means you don’t need a password. Some people might not like this idea at first, but I believe passkeys are the future, and once you try them, you’ll love them. For example, you can now use a physical Yubikey to sign in to all your self-hosted services easily and securely.

## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
> [!WARNING]
|
||||
> Pocket ID is in its early stages and may contain bugs. There might be OIDC features that are not yet implemented. If you encounter any issues, please open an issue.
|
||||
Pocket ID can be set up in multiple ways. The easiest and recommended way is to use Docker.
|
||||
|
||||
### Before you start
|
||||
|
||||
Pocket ID requires a [secure context](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Secure_Contexts), meaning it must be served over HTTPS. This is necessary because Pocket ID uses the [WebAuthn API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Authentication_API).
|
||||
|
||||
### Installation with Docker (recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Download the `docker-compose.yml` and `.env` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stonith404/pocket-id/main/docker-compose.yml
|
||||
|
||||
curl -o .env https://raw.githubusercontent.com/stonith404/pocket-id/main/.env.example
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Edit the `.env` file so that it fits your needs. See the [environment variables](#environment-variables) section for more information.
|
||||
3. Run `docker compose up -d`
|
||||
|
||||
You can now sign in with the admin account on `http://localhost/login/setup`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Unraid
|
||||
|
||||
Pocket ID is available as a template on the Community Apps store.
|
||||
|
||||
### Stand-alone Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Required tools:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) >= 20
|
||||
- [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) >= 1.23
|
||||
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
|
||||
- [PM2](https://pm2.keymetrics.io/)
|
||||
- [Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/docs/install) (optional)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Copy the `.env.example` file in the `frontend` and `backend` folder to `.env` and change it so that it fits your needs.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
cp frontend/.env.example frontend/.env
|
||||
cp backend/.env.example backend/.env
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Run the following commands:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/stonith404/pocket-id
|
||||
cd pocket-id
|
||||
|
||||
# Checkout the latest version
|
||||
git fetch --tags && git checkout $(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`)
|
||||
|
||||
# Start the backend
|
||||
cd backend/cmd
|
||||
go build -o ../pocket-id-backend
|
||||
cd ..
|
||||
pm2 start pocket-id-backend --name pocket-id-backend
|
||||
|
||||
# Start the frontend
|
||||
cd ../frontend
|
||||
npm install
|
||||
npm run build
|
||||
pm2 start --name pocket-id-frontend --node-args="--env-file .env" build/index.js
|
||||
|
||||
# Optional: Start Caddy (You can use any other reverse proxy)
|
||||
cd ..
|
||||
pm2 start --name pocket-id-caddy caddy -- run --config reverse-proxy/Caddyfile
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can now sign in with the admin account on `http://localhost/login/setup`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Nginx Reverse Proxy
|
||||
|
||||
To use Nginx as a reverse proxy for Pocket ID, update the configuration to increase the header buffer size. This adjustment is necessary because SvelteKit generates larger headers, which may exceed the default buffer limits.
|
||||
|
||||
```nginx
|
||||
proxy_busy_buffers_size 512k;
|
||||
proxy_buffers 4 512k;
|
||||
proxy_buffer_size 256k;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Proxy Services with Pocket ID
|
||||
|
||||
The goal of Pocket ID is to function exclusively as an OIDC provider. As such, we don't have a built-in proxy provider. However, you can use other tools that act as a middleware to protect your services and support OIDC as an authentication provider.
|
||||
|
||||
See the [guide](docs/proxy-services.md) for more information.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
#### Docker
|
||||
|
||||
```bash

||||
|
||||
#### Stand-alone
|
||||
|
||||
1. Stop the running services:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pm2 delete pocket-id-backend pocket-id-frontend pocket-id-caddy
|
||||
```
|
||||
2. Run the following commands:

||||
# Checkout the latest version
|
||||
git fetch --tags && git checkout $(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`)
|
||||
|
||||
# Start the backend

||||
cd backend/cmd
|
||||
go build -o ../pocket-id-backend
|
||||
cd ..
|
||||
pm2 start pocket-id-backend --name pocket-id-backend
|
||||
|
||||
# Start the frontend
|
||||
cd ../frontend
|
||||
npm install

## Environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
| Variable | Default Value | Recommended to change | Description |
|
||||
| ---------------------------- | ------------------------- | --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `PUBLIC_APP_URL` | `http://localhost` | yes | The URL where you will access the app. |
|
||||
| `TRUST_PROXY` | `false` | yes | Whether the app is behind a reverse proxy. |
|
||||
| `MAXMIND_LICENSE_KEY` | `-` | yes | License Key for the GeoLite2 Database. The license key is required to retrieve the geographical location of IP addresses in the audit log. If the key is not provided, IP locations will be marked as "unknown." You can obtain a license key for free [here](https://www.maxmind.com/en/geolite2/signup). |
|
||||
| `PUID` and `PGID` | `1000` | yes | The user and group ID of the user who should run Pocket ID inside the Docker container and owns the files that are mounted with the volume. You can get the `PUID` and `GUID` of your user on your host machine by using the command `id`. For more information see [this article](https://docs.linuxserver.io/general/understanding-puid-and-pgid/#using-the-variables). |
|
||||

|
||||
| `POSTGRES_CONNECTION_STRING` | `-` | no | The connection string to your Postgres database. This gets ignored if you didn't set `DB_PROVIDER` to `postgres`. A connection string can look like this: `postgresql://user:password@host:5432/pocket-id`. |

|
||||
| `CADDY_PORT` | `80` | no | The port on which Caddy should listen. Caddy is only active inside the Docker container. If you want to change the exposed port of the container then you sould change this variable. |
|
||||
| `PORT` | `3000` | no | The port on which the frontend should listen. |
|
||||
| `BACKEND_PORT` | `8080` | no | The port on which the backend should listen. |
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Account recovery
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to create a one-time access link for a user:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **UI**: An admin can create a one-time access link for the user in the admin panel under the "Users" tab by clicking on the three dots next to the user's name and selecting "One-time link".
|
||||
2. **Terminal**: You can create a one-time access link for a user by running the `scripts/create-one-time-access-token.sh` script. To execute this script with Docker you have to run the following command:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker compose exec pocket-id sh "sh scripts/create-one-time-access-token.sh <username or email>"
|
||||
```
