Quick start

Up and running in under 10 minutes

The Ubuntu / Debian package

  • Installs a systemd service that runs the version-pinned NodeDR POS containers with Docker Compose. It is labelled “runs in Docker” because it is not a native binary.
  • Installs Docker first if it is missing, and checks the download’s SHA-256 before installing.
  • Generates database passwords and secrets on first install into /etc/nodedr-pos/nodedr-pos.env (mode 0600). They survive upgrades, removal and purge.
  • Opens on http://localhost:1994.

Update by running the installer again, or sudo apt install ./nodedr-pos_<version>_amd64.deb. Remove with sudo apt remove nodedr-pos; settings and the Docker volumes (nodedr-pos_data) are kept. Back up before upgrading.
