# Paperless-ngx

> [*Paperless-ngx*][0] is a community-supported open-source document management
> system that transforms your physical documents into a searchable online
> archive so you can keep, well, less paper.

## Deploy with `kustomize`

```sh
kubectl apply -k paperless-ngx
```

Generic resources, including the persistent volumes and pods, are defined in
`paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx.yaml`.  Environment-specific overrides are
supplied in `paperless-ngx/kustomization.yaml`.  An Ingress resource is
configured in `paperless-ngx/ingress.yaml`.

This deployment uses SQLite as the database engine.  *Paperless-ngx* supports
other engines, but SQLite is fine for a single-instance deployment with only a
small number of documents.

Authentication via "HTTP remote user" is enabled, and the Ingress is configured
to use Authelia.  This provides a single sign-on experince, since
*Paperless-ngx* does not currently support LDAP or OAuth/OpenID Connect.
