## Documentation

# Deploy and Host Dolibarr on Railway

Dolibarr is an open-source ERP and CRM for small and medium businesses. It covers customers and suppliers, quotes, orders, invoices, payments, products and stock, projects, expenses, HR and accounting, all in modules you switch on as you need them. It is a lighter, simpler alternative to Odoo.

## About Hosting Dolibarr

This template runs the official `dolibarr/dolibarr:24.0.0` image with MariaDB 11.8 as a second service. The installer runs automatically on first boot: it creates the database, the admin account from the variables, and your company with the third-party and invoicing modules enabled. Uploaded documents and generated PDFs are stored on a Railway volume, and the database on MariaDB's volume, so both survive redeploys. The start command fixes Apache's duplicate MPM modules, which otherwise stops Apache from starting on Railway. Custom modules in `htdocs/custom` are not persisted. Both services fit comfortably on the Hobby plan.

## Common Use Cases

- Quotes, invoices and payments for a small company or freelancer
- A simple CRM with contacts, proposals and projects
- Stock and product management without an expensive ERP

## Dependencies for Dolibarr Hosting

- `dolibarr/dolibarr:24.0.0` (official image)
- `mariadb:11.8.9` (official image)
- Railway volumes for documents and the database
