Mattermost: Open-Source Team Collaboration

Mattermost is an open-source team collaboration platform and a private alternative to Slack.

Pigsty v4.2 provides app/mattermost (conf/app/mattermost.yml), which stores app state in external PostgreSQL and persists file directories on host paths.

Quick Start

curl -fsSL https://repo.pigsty.io/get | bash; cd ~/pigsty
./bootstrap
./configure -c app/mattermost
vi pigsty.yml                 # update passwords and domain
./deploy.yml
./docker.yml
./app.yml

Default endpoints:

• http://<IP>:8065
• http://mm.pigsty

On first access, initialize the admin account in the web UI.

Default Storage and Connections

Default template settings include:

• PostgreSQL URL: POSTGRES_URL=postgres://dbuser_mattermost:DBUser.Mattermost@<IP>:5432/mattermost?...
• Persistent directories: /data/mattermost/{config,data,logs,plugins,client/plugins,bleve-indexes}

make up
make restart
