Getting Started

Choose a deployment method and install TMA Cloud.

What Is TMA Cloud?Copy Anchor Link

TMA Cloud is a self-hosted cloud storage platform that provides:

• AES-256-GCM-encrypted file storage in an S3-compatible bucket
• A desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux, with Cloud Drive
• Read-only share links with expiry controls
• Document editing through OnlyOffice or desktop applications
• Sub-users with separate file permissions

PrerequisitesCopy Anchor Link

You need:

• Docker with Docker Compose, for the standard install
• Or, to build from source: Rust (stable) and trunk for the web app
• PostgreSQL (v17+)
• Redis (v6+). REDIS_URL must be set, but the server keeps running while Redis is unreachable: caching is off and live updates reach only clients of the same server process
