Installation

dictpress requires Postgres ⩾ v10.

Pre-built binary

• Download the latest release and extract the binary.
• ./dictpress new-config to generate config.toml. Then, edit the file.
• ./dictpress install to install the tables in the Postgres DB.
• Run ./dictpress and visit http://localhost:9000/admin.

See Importing data to populate the dictionary database from CSVs.

Compiling from source

Make sure go is installed on your system.

1. Download or git clone the latest tagged release or the bleeding edge master branch from the repository. Eg: git clone git@github.com:knadh/dictpress.git

2. cd into the dictpress directory and run make dist. This compiles the dictpress binary.

Upgrading

Some releases may require schema changes to the existing database. If a release prompts for an upgrade, run dictpress upgrade to apply the necessary database migrations.
