listmonk is a standalone, self-hosted, newsletter and mailing list manager. It is fast, feature-rich, and packed into a single binary. It uses a PostgreSQL database as its data store.

Installation

Docker

The latest image is available on DockerHub at listmonk/listmonk:latest. Use the sample docker-compose.yml to run listmonk and Postgres DB with docker-compose as follows:

Demo

mkdir listmonk-demo
sh -c "$(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/knadh/listmonk/master/install-demo.sh)"

The demo does not persist Postgres after the containers are removed. DO NOT use this demo setup in production.

Production

• docker-compose up db to run the Postgres DB.
• docker-compose run --rm app ./listmonk --install to setup the DB (or --upgrade to upgrade an existing DB)
• Run docker-compose up app and visit http://localhost:9000.

More information on docs.

Binary

• Download the latest release and extract the listmonk binary.
• ./listmonk --new-config to generate config.toml. Then, edit the file.
• ./listmonk --install to setup the Postgres DB (or --upgrade to upgrade an existing DB. Upgrades are idempotent and running them multiple times have no side effects).
• Run ./listmonk and visit http://localhost:9000.
