Quick Start (One-Command Install)

Prerequisites

  • Fresh Ubuntu 20.04+ or Debian 11+ server
  • Root or sudo access
  • Minimum 4GB RAM and 20GB disk space
  • Public IP address
  • Domain name with DNS A record pointed to your server

One-Command Installation

curl -fsSL https://install.theaode.com/install-secure.sh | sudo bash -s YOUR-LICENSE-KEY

Replace YOUR-LICENSE-KEY with the license key you received after purchase. The installer validates your license, checks system requirements, installs Docker and Docker Compose, installs Node.js 20 and pnpm, downloads the AODE boilerplate package, prompts for configuration (system name, domain, SSL email, admin credentials), generates secure secrets automatically, builds the portal application, configures firewall rules, and starts all services.

Installation takes 5-10 minutes.

What Gets Installed

  • Traefik reverse proxy with automatic SSL
  • SQLite database
  • ClickHouse analytics database
  • AODE Portal with management interface
  • Log ingestion service
  • All running in isolated Docker containers with health checks and automatic restarts

Post-Installation

After installation completes you'll see your portal URL and admin credentials. Make sure your domain DNS is configured correctly. SSL certificates are automatically issued by Let's Encrypt within a few minutes. Access your portal at https://yourdomain.com, log in with your admin credentials, and start deploying applications.
