Movim is up!

I wanted to get completely off of other's hosted platforms as much as I could, and noticed that there weren't always great clients for XMPP on some platforms, as they were all missing this or that feature, so I decided to host a movim!

Micro blogging, or just chatting with friends in the usual way, it's got something for everyone. Feel free to check out my instance at https://movim.kittie.gay or you can host your own! Speaking of which...

How to host it!

As usual, I'm going to assume you know about reverse proxies, DNS, and docker, and just leave the goods.

# docker-compose.yml
services:
  movim:
    image: ravermeister/movim:latest
    container_name: movim
    volumes:
      - .env:/usr/local/share/movim/.env:ro
    ports:
      - 8075:80
    restart: always
    depends_on:
      postgresql:
        condition: service_started

  postgresql:
    image: postgres:17.9-alpine
    hostname: postgresql
    container_name: postgresql
    env_file:
      - .env
    volumes:
      - database:/var/lib/postgresql/data:rw
    ports:
      - 9758:5432
    restart: always

volumes:
  database:
