- # Managing frontends
- === "OTP"
- ```sh
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl frontend install <frontend> [--ref <ref>] [--file <file>] [--build-url <build-url>] [--path <path>] [--build-dir <build-dir>]
- ```
- === "From Source"
- ```sh
- mix pleroma.frontend install <frontend> [--ref <ref>] [--file <file>] [--build-url <build-url>] [--path <path>] [--build-dir <build-dir>]
- ```
- Frontend can be installed either from local zip file, or automatically downloaded from the web.
- You can give all the options directly on the command line, but missing information will be filled out by looking at the data configured under `frontends.available` in the config files.
- Currently, known `<frontend>` values are:
- - [admin-fe](https://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/admin-fe)
- - [kenoma](http://git.pleroma.social/lambadalambda/kenoma)
- - [pleroma-fe](http://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/pleroma-fe)
- - [fedi-fe](https://git.pleroma.social/pleroma/fedi-fe)
- - [soapbox](https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/soapbox)
- You can still install frontends that are not configured, see below.
- ## Example installations for a known frontend
- For a frontend configured under the `available` key, it's enough to install it by name.
- === "OTP"
- ```sh
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl frontend install pleroma
- ```
- === "From Source"
- ```sh
- mix pleroma.frontend install pleroma
- ```
- This will download the latest build for the pre-configured `ref` and install it. It can then be configured as the one of the served frontends in the config file (see `primary` or `admin`).
- You can override any of the details. To install a pleroma build from a different URL, you could do this:
- === "OTP"
- ```sh
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl frontend install pleroma --ref 2hu_edition --build-url https://example.org/raymoo.zip
- ```
- === "From Source"
- ```sh
- mix pleroma.frontend install pleroma --ref 2hu_edition --build-url https://example.org/raymoo.zip
- ```
- Similarly, you can also install from a local zip file.
- === "OTP"
- ```sh
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl frontend install pleroma --ref mybuild --file ~/Downloads/doomfe.zip
- ```
- === "From Source"
- ```sh
- mix pleroma.frontend install pleroma --ref mybuild --file ~/Downloads/doomfe.zip
- ```
- The resulting frontend will always be installed into a folder of this template: `${instance_static}/frontends/${name}/${ref}`.
- Careful: This folder will be completely replaced on installation.
- ## Example installation for an unknown frontend
- The installation process is the same, but you will have to give all the needed options on the command line. For example:
- === "OTP"
- ```sh
- ./bin/pleroma_ctl frontend install gensokyo --ref master --build-url https://gensokyo.2hu/builds/marisa.zip
- ```
- === "From Source"
- ```sh
- mix pleroma.frontend install gensokyo --ref master --build-url https://gensokyo.2hu/builds/marisa.zip
- ```
- If you don't have a zip file but just want to install a frontend from a local path, you can simply copy the files over a folder of this template: `${instance_static}/frontends/${name}/${ref}`.
