# Installing Nicolium as Pleroma/Akkoma frontend
|
|
|
|
## Installation in instance static directory
|
|
|
|
The most straightforward way to install Nicolium as a frontend for Pleroma or Akkoma is to simply download it and place its files in the `/instance/static` directory of your Pleroma/Akkoma installation (usually `/opt/pleroma/instance/static` or `/opt/akkoma/instance/static`, accordingly).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -O https://web.nicolium.app/release.zip
|
|
unzip release.zip -d /opt/pleroma/instance/static/
|
|
rm release.zip
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Installation via Pleroma/Akkoma frontend management
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to use the Pleroma/Akkoma frontend management tool. You can find more information about it in the [Pleroma documentation](https://docs.pleroma.social/backend/administration/frontends-management/). You can use either the PleromaFE built-in admin dashboard or the older AdminFE to install Nicolium and set it as the server frontend. You don't have to provide any URL. It's right there in Pleroma/Akkoma (under the name `pl-fe`).
|
|
|
|
To install it from CLI, use:
|
|
|
|
### OTP
|
|
```bash
|
|
./bin/pleroma_ctl frontend install nicolium --ref release --build-url https://web.nicolium.app/release.zip --build-dir .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### From Source
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mix pleroma.frontend install nicolium --ref release --build-url https://web.nicolium.app/release.zip --build-dir .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It is now possible to set Nicolium as the primary frontend in the configuration file or via AdminFE:
|
|
```elixir
|
|
config :pleroma, :frontends,
|
|
primary: %{
|
|
"name" => "nicolium", # Use `pl-fe` if you installed it via Pleroma/Akkoma dashboard
|
|
"ref" => "release"
|
|
},
|
|
...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On Akkoma, it is also possible for individual users to select their preferred frontend to Nicolium by visiting `/akkoma/frontend` page on their Akkoma instance. |
