Initial Setup

After installation, the setup wizard guides you through the initial configuration of ReadyStackGo. The wizard starts automatically on first access to the web interface.

Overview

The setup wizard consists of four steps:

1. Create Admin Account - Set up the primary administrator
2. Configure Organization - Define your organization details
3. Set Up Environment - Connect ReadyStackGo to Docker (optional)
4. Complete Setup - Finalize the configuration

Step 1: Create Admin Account

In the first step, you create the administrator account for logging into ReadyStackGo.

Input Fields

Field	Requirement
Username	Minimum 3 characters
Password	Minimum 8 characters
Confirm Password	Must match the password

Tips

• Choose a secure username (not just admin)
• Use a strong password with letters, numbers, and special characters
• Save these credentials - they cannot be recovered later

Important

This account is the only way to access ReadyStackGo. Keep your credentials safe!

---

Step 2: Configure Organization

Here you define the identity of your ReadyStackGo instance.

Input Fields

Field	Description	Example
Organization ID	Technical identifier (lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens only)	my-company
Organization Name	Display name for your organization	My Company Inc.

---

Step 3: Set Up Environment

In this step, you can configure a Docker environment. An environment represents a Docker installation that ReadyStackGo should manage.

Optional

You can skip this step and add environments later. Click “Skip for now” to proceed.

Input Fields

Field	Description	Default
Environment ID	Technical identifier	local
Display Name	Display name for the environment	Local Docker
Docker Socket Path	Path to the Docker socket	unix:///var/run/docker.sock

---

Step 4: Complete Setup

In the final step, you’ll see a summary of your configuration:

• ✓ Admin account configured
• ✓ Organization details set
• ✓ Environment configured (if not skipped)

When you click “Complete Setup”:

1. Your configuration is saved
2. The admin account is activated
3. You are redirected to the login page

---

After Setup

Login

After completing the wizard, you’ll be redirected to the login page. Log in with your admin account.

Next Steps

1. Add Environment (if skipped) - Go to Environments and click Add Environment
2. Configure Stack Sources - Add Git repositories or local paths as stack sources
3. Deploy First Stack - See First Deployment
