How to install passbolt in non-interactive mode ?

The non-interactive mode is useful for automating passbolt installation and for users with specific needs. It is available only on Debian and Ubuntu operating systems.

The commands of this page assume you want to install passbolt CE. Replace passbolt-ce-server with passbolt-pro-server if you plan to install the PRO version.

Simple mode

If you don’t want to install mysql locally or you don’t want to use nginx as http server you can run the non-interactive command with --no-install-recommends parameter.

sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install \
  --no-install-recommends passbolt-ce-server

Advanced mode

You can automate the installation by pre-fill answers with this command (run one command per parameter):

echo passbolt-ce-server <parameter> <type> <value> | \
  sudo debconf-set-selections
