Arch Linux User Repository

Hoarder has been renamed to Karakeep. The PKGBUILD has been fully updated to replace all references to hoarder with karakeep (note: hoarder-cli remains named hoarder-cli).
If you want to preserve your existing Hoarder data during the upgrade, please follow the steps below:

1. Stop the old services:

sudo systemctl stop hoarder-web.service hoarder-worker.service hoarder-browser.service
sudo systemctl disable --now hoarder.target

2. Uninstall Hoarder
(After uninstalling, you can manually remove the old hoarder user and group if needed.)

paru -R hoarder

3. Rename the old data directory:

sudo mv /var/lib/hoarder /var/lib/karakeep

4. Install Karakeep:

paru -S karakeep

5. Fix ownership of the data directory:

sudo chown -R karakeep:karakeep /var/lib/karakeep

6. Set Karakeep: Edit /etc/karakeep/karakeep.env

7. Start Karakeep:

sudo systemctl enable --now karakeep.target

For some reason I do not understand this fails to build for me when pnpm tries to apply the included patch for xcode. I had to remove the patch from the package.json file and apply it old school with patch.

@kageyama This will not delete DATA_DIR.

DATA_DIR - The path for the persistent data directory. This is where the db and the uploaded assets live.

In the service file DATA_DIR=/var/lib/hoarder and these's .tmpfiles for this directory. Won't this delete the data_dir ?

• Do not use nodejs 22.7.0/22.8.0 to make.
• After upgrading nodejs, you need to recompile.
• Can't install yarn.

• If you want to search full text, you can install meilisearch and set relative environment variables before starting hoarder.
• If you want to automatically tag, you can install ollama and set relative environment variables, or set Open-AI api key environment variables.
• Environment variables can be set in /etc/hoarder/hoarder.env according to https://docs.hoarder.app/configuration. The environment variables that are not specified in /etc/hoarder/hoarder.env need to be added by yourself.
• Run sudo systemctl enable --now hoarder.target to start hoarder after installed.
• hoarder-cli has been separated as a separate package.
