Administration

🗑️ Cleanup (Remove Instance & Volumes)

cd {{path_docker_compose_instances}}mastodon/
docker-compose down
docker volume rm mastodon_data mastodon_database mastodon_redis
cd {{path_docker_compose_instances}} &&
rm -vR {{path_docker_compose_instances}}mastodon

🔍 Access Mastodon Terminal

docker-compose exec -it web /bin/bash

🛠️ Set File Permissions

After setting up Mastodon, apply the correct file permissions:

docker-compose exec -it -u root web chown -R 991:991 public

📦 Database Management

🏗️ Running Database Migrations

Ensure all required database structures are up to date:

docker compose exec -it web bash -c "RAILS_ENV=production bin/rails db:migrate"

🚀 Performance Optimization

🗑️ Delete Cache & Recompile Assets

docker-compose exec web bundle exec rails assets:precompile
docker-compose restart

This ensures your Mastodon instance is loading the latest assets after updates.
