[File Browser Quantum](https://github.com/gtsteffaniak/filebrowser) is a community fork of [File Browser](/recycled/deprecated/file-browser), rewritten for better performance (indexed search, lower memory use) and configured through a single `config.yaml` file instead of a database-only setup.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
::file-tree
|
|

|
|
tree:
|
|
/:
|
|
- srv:
|
|
- docker:
|
|
- filebrowser-quantum:
|
|
- compose.yaml
|
|
- data:
|
|
- config.yaml
|
|
- filebrowser.sqlite
|
|

::
|
|
|
|
::steps{level="3"}
|
|
### Create the config file
|
|
|
|
Create the data folder:
|
|
|
|
```bash [Terminal]
|
|
sudo mkdir -p /srv/docker/filebrowser-quantum/data
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Create the `config.yaml` file:
|
|
|
|
```bash [Terminal]
|
|
sudo nano /srv/docker/filebrowser-quantum/data/config.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Paste the following, adding one `sources` entry per folder you want to browse:
|
|
|
|
```yaml [config.yaml]
|
|
server:
|
|
cacheDir: /home/filebrowser/data/tmp
|
|
sources:
|
|
- path: /srv/docker
|
|
config:
|
|
defaultEnabled: true
|
|
- path: /media
|
|
config:
|
|
defaultEnabled: true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Press :kbd{value="Ctrl+O"}, then :kbd{value="Enter"} to save, and :kbd{value="Ctrl+X"} to exit.
|
|
|
|
### Deploy the stack
|
|
|
|
Open Dockge, click on `compose`, name the stack `filebrowser-quantum`, then copy and paste the following:
|
|
|
|
```yaml [compose.yaml]
|
|
---
|
|
services:
|
|
filebrowser-quantum:
|
|
container_name: filebrowser-quantum
|
|
image: gtstef/filebrowser:beta
|
|
restart: unless-stopped
|
|
volumes:
|
|
- /srv/docker:/srv/docker
|
|
- /media:/media
|
|
- /srv/docker/filebrowser-quantum/data:/home/filebrowser/data
|
|
ports:
|
|
- 8020:80
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
::note
|
|
|
|
Mount every folder you listed under `sources` in `config.yaml` at the same path inside the container (here `/srv/docker` and `/media`), otherwise File Browser Quantum won't find them.

✨ __Tip:__ Add the watchtower label to automate updates.
|
|
|
|
```yaml [compose.yaml]
|
|
services:

|
filebrowser-quantum:
|
|
#...
|
|
labels:
|
|
|
|
- com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true
|
|
```
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
Deploy the container and go to `http://yourserverip:8020`. Log in with the default `admin` / `admin` credentials, then immediately change the password in your profile settings.

## Exposing File Browser Quantum with Swag
|
|
|
|
::warning
|
|
|
|
File Browser Quantum does not support multi-factor authentication. Exposing it publicly could put your systems at risk. Only do this if you're using a secure authentication solution like [TinyAuth](/serveex/security/tinyauth) or [Authentik](/serveex/advanced/authentik/). Otherwise, don't expose it with SWAG. Use a VPN like [Wireguard](/serveex/core/wireguard) instead.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
You may want to access File Browser Quantum remotely from all your devices. To do that, we'll expose it through Swag.
|
|
|
|
::note{icon=""}
|
|
|
|
📋 __Pre-requisite:__ We assume you've already created a subdomain like `fbq.yourdomain.com` in your [DNS zone](/general/networking/dns) pointing to `yourdomain.com` with a `CNAME`. Unless you're using Cloudflare Zero Trust, we also assume you've already forwarded port `443` on your router to port `443` on your server using [NAT rules](/general/networking/nat).
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
::steps{level="3"}
|
|
### Add File Browser Quantum's network to SWAG
|
|
|
|
In Dockge, go to the SWAG stack and edit the compose file to add File Browser Quantum's network:
|
|
|
|
```yaml [compose.yaml]
|
|
---
|
|
services:
|
|
swag:
|
|
container_name: # ...
|
|
# ...
|
|
networks: # Connects the container to the custom network
|
|
# ...
|
|
- filebrowser-quantum # Name of the network declared in the stack
|
|
|
|
networks: # Defines the custom network
|
|
# ...
|
|
filebrowser-quantum: # Name of the network declared in the stack
|
|
name: filebrowser-quantum_default # Actual name of the external network
|
|
external: true # Specifies it's an external network
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
::note
|
|
|
|
Here, we assume the network name for File Browser Quantum is `filebrowser-quantum_default`. You can confirm the connection is working by accessing the SWAG dashboard at http://yourserverip:81.
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
Restart the stack by clicking "deploy" and wait for SWAG to fully initialize.
|
|
|
|
### Create the subdomain.conf file
|
|
|
|
In the Swag folders, create the file `fbq.subdomain.conf`.
|
|
|
|
```bash [Terminal]
|
|
sudo nano /srv/docker/swag/config/nginx/proxy-confs/fbq.subdomain.conf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And paste the following configuration:
|
|
|
|
```nginx [fbq.subdomain.conf]
|
|
## Version 2023/12/19

|
|
|

|
|
set $upstream_proto http;
|
|
proxy_pass $upstream_proto://$upstream_app:$upstream_port;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Press :kbd{value="Ctrl+O"}, then :kbd{value="Enter"} to save, and :kbd{value="Ctrl+X"} to exit.

## Protecting File Browser Quantum with TinyAuth
|
|
Add [TinyAuth](/serveex/security/tinyauth)'s forward-auth check directly to `fbq.subdomain.conf`, the same way as [the TinyAuth guide](/serveex/security/tinyauth#protecting-an-app-via-reverse-proxy):
|

|
|
|
|
::note{to="/serveex/security/tinyauth#exposing-tinyauth-with-swag"}
|
|
|
|
The `location /tinyauth` block runs inside SWAG's own container, so SWAG needs to be on TinyAuth's Docker network to reach it by name (`tinyauth` here). This should already be set up from **exposing TinyAuth itself**. If you run into an error, double-check SWAG's compose file still has that network attached.

✨ __Tip:__ You can protect this app with [Authentik](/serveex/advanced/authentik) instead of TinyAuth by opening `fbq.subdomain.conf` and uncommenting `include /config/nginx/authentik-server.conf;`{lang=nginx} and `include /config/nginx/authentik-location.conf;`{lang=nginx}. Don't forget to [create an application and provider in Authentik](/serveex/advanced/authentik#protecting-an-app-via-reverse-proxy).
