|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Before installing Datasquirel on Windows you need:
|
|
|
|
- [Docker Desktop for Windows](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/) — installed and running
|
|
- [WSL 2](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install) (Windows Subsystem for Linux) — required by Docker Desktop
|
|
- A terminal application (Windows Terminal, PowerShell, or Git Bash)
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
### 1. Enable WSL 2 and Docker Desktop
|
|
|
|
Make sure Docker Desktop is running and WSL 2 integration is enabled in Docker Desktop settings under **Resources → WSL Integration**.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Open a WSL Terminal
|
|
|
|
Open Windows Terminal and launch a WSL shell (Ubuntu or another distribution):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
wsl
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Run the Installer
|
|
|
|
From inside your WSL shell, run the Datasquirel install script:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl https://datasquirel.com/install | bash
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Follow the prompts to complete the installation. The script will download the Docker Compose stack, configure the environment, and start all services.
|
|
|
|
### 4. Access the Admin Panel
|
|
|
|
Once the installation finishes, open your browser and navigate to:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
http://localhost:7070
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You will be redirected to the super admin setup page on first launch.
|
|
|
|
## Updating
|
|
|
|
To update Datasquirel to a newer version, re-run the install script and follow the prompts:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl https://datasquirel.com/install | bash
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
- All data is stored in Docker volumes on your Windows machine.
|
|
- Stopping Docker Desktop will stop Datasquirel. Start Docker Desktop again and the containers will resume automatically.
|
|
- For production use on Windows Server, WSL 2 with Ubuntu is the recommended environment.
