Notesnook Sync Server

This repo contains the full source code of the Notesnook Sync Server licensed under AGPLv3.

Building

From source

Requirements:

1. .NET 8
2. git

The first step is to clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/streetwriters/notesnook-sync-server.git

# change directory
cd notesnook-sync-server

Once you are inside the ./notesnook-sync-server directory, run:

# this might take a while to complete
dotnet restore Notesnook.sln

Then build all projects:

dotnet build Notesnook.sln

To run the Notesnook.API project:

dotnet run --project Notesnook.API/Notesnook.API.csproj

To run the Streetwriters.Messenger project:

dotnet run --project Streetwriters.Messenger/Streetwriters.Messenger.csproj

To run the Streetwriters.Identity project:

dotnet run --project Streetwriters.Identity/Streetwriters.Identity.csproj

Using docker

The sync server can easily be started using Docker.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/streetwriters/notesnook-sync-server/master/docker-compose.yml

And then use Docker Compose to start the servers:

docker compose up

This takes care of setting up everything including MongoDB, Minio etc.

TODO Self-hosting

Note: Self-hosting the Notesnook Sync Server is now possible, but without support. Documentation will be provided at a later date. We are working to enable full on-premise self-hosting, so stay tuned!

• Open source the Sync server
• Open source the Identity server
• Open source the SSE Messaging infrastructure
• Fully Dockerize all services
• Use self-hosted Minio for S3 storage
• Publish on DockerHub
• Add settings to change server URLs in Notesnook client apps (starting from v3.0.18)
• Write self hosting docs
