Mayan is a web-based free/libre document management system for managing documents within an organization. All functionality is available in its free public version. It has an active community of volunteers and third-party service and support providers. I think Mayan EDMS is the most advanced open source document management system. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Mayan EDMS on your Synology NAS using Docker and Portainer.

💡Note: This guide works perfectly with the latest Mayan EDMS v4.9.1 release.

STEP 1

Please Support My work by Making a Donation.

STEP 2

Install Portainer using my step by step guide. If you already have Portainer installed on your Synology NAS, skip this STEP. Attention: Make sure you have installed the latest Portainer version.

STEP 3

Go to File Station and open the docker folder. Inside the docker folder, create one new folder and name it mayanedms. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.

STEP 4

Now create six new folders inside the mayanedms folder that you created at STEP 3 and name them app, db, rabbitmq, redis, staging, watch. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.

STEP 5

Log into Portainer using your username and password. On the left sidebar in Portainer, click on Stacks then + Add stack. Follow the instructions in the image below.

STEP 6

In the Name field type in mayanedms. Follow the instructions in the image below.

Note: Copy Paste the code below in the Portainer Stacks Web editor.
