=============================
Installing on your own server
=============================
.. note::
You should use this if your cloud provider does not already have a direct tutorial,
or if you have experience setting up servers.
Goal
====
By the end of this tutorial, you should have a JupyterHub with some admin
users and a user environment with packages you want installed running on
a server you have access to.
Pre-requisites
==============
#. Some familiarity with the command line.
#. A server running Ubuntu 18.04 where you have root access.
#. Ability to ``ssh`` into the server & run commands from the prompt.
#. A **public IP** where the server can be accessed from the internet.
Step 1: Installing The Littlest JupyterHub
==========================================
#. Using a terminal program, SSH into your server. This should give you a prompt where you can
type commands.
#. Copy the text below, and paste it into the terminal. Replace
``<admin-user-name>`` with the name of the first **admin user** for this
JupyterHub. Choose any name you like (don't forget to replace the brackets!).
This admin user can log in after the JupyterHub is set up, and
can configure it to their needs. **Remember to add your username**!
.. code-block:: bash
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jupyterhub/the-littlest-jupyterhub/master/bootstrap/bootstrap.py | sudo python3 - --admin <admin-user-name>
.. note::
See :ref:`topic/installer-actions` if you want to understand exactly what the installer is doing.
:ref:`topic/customizing-installer` documents other options that can be passed to the installer.
#. Press ``Enter`` to start the installation process. This will take 5-10 minutes,
and will say 'Done!' when the installation process is complete.
#. Copy the **Public IP** of your server, and try accessing http://<public-ip> from
your browser. If everything went well, this should give you a JupyterHub login page.

#. Login using the **admin user name** you used in step 2. You can choose any
password that you wish. Use a
strong password & note it down somewhere, since this will be the password for
the admin user account from now on.
#. Congratulations, you have a running working JupyterHub!
Step 2: Adding more users
