title: Running abra on the server
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Why?
|
|
|
|
If you're on an environment where it's hard to run Docker, or command-line programs in general, you might want to install `abra` on a server instead of your local computer.
|
|
|
|
To install `abra` on a different server than you'll be hosting your apps, just follow [getting started guide](/overview/) as normal.
|
|
|
|
If you want to install `abra` on the same server, there's one change.
|
|
|
|
Instead of providing your SSH connection details when you run `abra server add ...`, just use `default`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
abra server add default
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
!!! note "Technical details"
|
|
|
|
This will tell `abra` to look at the Docker system running on the server, instead of a remote one.
|
|
|
|
Make sure to back up your `~/abra/` directory on the server, or put it in version control, as well as other files you'd like to.
