Is there an installation guide for those that don't use Docker? #2

Hi there,

Thanks for sharing this project on Github, looks amazing.

For those that don't use Docker, what's the best approach to install this app, please?

Thanks again,

G.

Hi,

Unfortunately I'm not going to be much help with an installation that doesn't use Docker.

I imagine it would be something like:

  1. create a new ASP.NET CORE project.
  2. clone this repo into the new project folder.
  3. dotnet publish to create an .exe file.

From here you'd have to make sure to include the external directory (and the required subdirectories) & init.sql in the same folder as the .exe.

I'm sorry I can't be of more help. I'll leave this issue open in case anyone else can offer better advice. If you give it a try and run into any issues I'm happy to try to help.
