Setup Kanboard on bare VM-Alpine

This repository is for setting up Kanboard, an IMHO pretty awesome "free and open source Kanban project management software". I wanted to run it with Docker (which in a test environment worked flawlessly), but cannot get Docker in the production environment, only VM's on Windows' Hyper-V.

This has been developed (and only tested) with the VM-version of Alpine 3.8 and Kanboard 1.2.7, on a 2nd-generation VM on Hyper-V under Windows 10. This repository is to large parts the docker/ folder from release 1.2.7 of Kanboard's GitHub repository. The setup script is adapted from the Dockerfile in the same repository.

Note that in this version, a hard-coded APK-repositories file is used; etc/apk/repositories. Make sure to change the server to your preferred one before running setup.sh. A better approach would be to take the repository selected during setup-alpine, which is (usually?) the second line in the generated repositories file. Didn't want to hassle with head and diverting stuff to (temporary) files...

User Guide

First, set up an Alpine system. I used a VM with only 2GB disk and it worked fine. After the installation of Kanboard (without any plugins etc.), the entire setup uses 163MB of disk space on /.

Log in to Alpine (as root), get this repository as a tar.gz, and unpack it:

apk udpate
apk add curl
cd /tmp
curl -sL -o kb-alp.tar.gz https://github.com/asprionj/kb-alp/tarball/master
tar -xvzf kb-alp.tar.gz
rm kb-alp.tar.gz

Then, just run the setup script:

sh asprionj-kb-alp-*/setup.sh

If anyone else tries this, please let me know if it works for you as well!
