Installation

First, create a file named /etc/default/dokku-pro. This file contains environment variables used to configure the service. The following are example variables:

API_JWT_ACCESSSECRET=asdfghjklzxc
API_JWT_REFRESHSECRET=qwertyuiopzxcvbnmas
ROOT_TOKEN=password
LICENSE_KEY=CONTENTS_OF_LICENSE_KEY

Create a folder called /etc/dokku-pro/ and create a file called /etc/dokku-pro/license.key. The contents of that file should be the previously downloaded license key.

Next, install the debian package distributed to you. This may be re-downloaded if necessary from the software distribution service:

dpkg -i path/to/dokku-pro.deb

The service is not started on boot. It can be started by running the following commands:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start dokku-pro.target
sudo systemctl start dokku-pro.service

By default, the service starts on port 5000. See the Configuration documentation for more information on configuring this and other values.
