# Nextcloud
Students and teachers can store their documents, calendars, contacts and photos locally within [Nextcloud](https://nextcloud.com), which is much like having a (local) version of Dropbox or Google Drive on your very own Internet-in-a-Box.
Students and teachers can store their documents, calendars, contacts and photos locally within [Nextcloud](https://nextcloud.com), which is much like having a (local) version of Dropbox or Google Drive on your very own [Internet-in-a-Box](http://internet-in-a-box.org).
This Ansible playbook was derived from an earlier ownCloud playbook thanks to [Josh Dennis](https://github.com/floydianslips) in 2016/2017.
### Install It
(1) Set these 2 variable in [/etc/iiab/local_vars.yml](http://FAQ.IIAB.IO#What_is_local_vars.yml_and_how_do_I_customize_it.3F) prior to installing Internet-in-a-Box:
nextcloud_install: True
nextcloud_enabled: True
(2) If you want to access Nextcloud from public IPv4 addresses, then also set:
nextcloud_allow_public_ips: True
(3) Strongly consider setting `apache_high_php_limits: True` in the 3-BASE-SERVER section, to allocate important RAM/resources to PHP. Of course, enabling this might cause excess use of RAM/disk or other resources if not calibrated to your hardware! So after install is complete, verify and evaluate these 5 settings in /etc/php/<VERSION>/apache2/php.ini:
- upload_max_filesize
- post_max_size
- memory_limit (Nextcloud recommends 512+ MB)
- max_execution_time
- max_input_time
Some thoughtful PHP recommendations (while largely tailored to WordPress!) can be found here: https://github.com/iiab/iiab/blob/master/roles/httpd/tasks/main.yml#L80-L84
### Using It
Administrators verify that Nextcloud is installed on your Internet-in-a-Box (check [/etc/iiab/local_vars.yml](http://FAQ.IIAB.IO#What_is_local_vars.yml_and_how_do_I_customize_it.3F)) and then log in to Nextcloud at http://box/nextcloud, http://box.lan/nextcloud, http://172.18.96.1/nextcloud (or similar) using:
