2.14.18.1. Install BookStack

Connect to the hosting via SSH.
Navigate to the root directory of the site (use your site and subdomain name in the command):
```
cd example.com/www/
```

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack.git --branch release --single-branch .

Install the packages:
```
composer install --no-dev
```
Create a configuration file:
```
cp .env.example .env
```
Edit the .env configuration file and specify your data for the following parameters:
- Site:
  - APP_URL — the address of your site.
- Database:
  - DB_HOST — database host.
  - DB_DATABASE — name of the database.
  - DB_USERNAME — database user login.
  - DB_PASSWORD — password of the database user.
- Mail:
  - MAIL_FROM — mailbox from which mail will be sent from the site.
  - MAIL_HOST — mail.adm.tools.
  - MAIL_PORT — 465.
  - MAIL_USERNAME — the same mailbox as for MAIL_FROM.
  - MAIL_PASSWORD — password of the mailbox from MAIL_FROM and MAIL_USERNAME.
  - MAIL_ENCRYPTION — tls.
Generate a unique application key (during the process, select "yes"):
```
php artisan key:generate
```
Update the contents of the database (select "yes" during the process):
```
php artisan migrate
```

Open the site in the browser and log in with the standard username and password: admin@admin.com and password.
Replace the default login and password with your own:
1. In the upper right corner, click "Admin" and select "My Account".
2. In the "Profile Details" section, enter your email and save the changes.
3. In the "Access & Security" section, in the "Change Password" block, set a new password.
Check the sending of mail from the site:
1. Go to "Settings → Maintenance".
2. In the "Send a Test Email" block, click "Send test email" — if everything is in order, a green success notification will appear, and a test email will be sent to the administrator's email.
If necessary, set the desired language in "My Account → Profile Details".
