To install money4band on OpenMediaVault, the best approach is to use python and the project's built-in setup script via SSH.

While you are familiar with Docker Compose, this project is designed to generate its own docker-compose.yaml file based on the passive income services you choose to enable.

​Here is the step-by-step guide to getting it running on your OMV machine (for more details refer to the project's readme):

​1. Connect via SSH
​Open your terminal (or PuTTY) and log in to your OMV server.

​2. Clone the Repository
​Navigate to the directory where you want to store the application (e.g., your /appdata folder) and git clone the money4band repository or using wget to download the packaged executable (useful if you do not have python installed).

3. Run the Setup Script
   ​Instead of writing a manual compose file, run the interactive script. This script will ask which apps you want to use (Honeygain, EarnApp, etc.) and then build the environment for you.

4a. Run the generated docker compose using script menu option or using docker compose command in the terminal.

​4b. Integration with OMV Compose Plugin:
​If you prefer managing everything through the OMV Web GUI, you can do so once the files are generated (you can also generate these files on another machine skipping the steps 1 to 3 on your OMV):
​After running the script once, look in the money4band folder. You will now see a docker-compose.yaml and a .env file.
​Open the OMV Web Interface.
​Go to Services > Compose > Files.
​Click Create (+), name it "money4band," and copy-paste the contents of the generated docker-compose.yaml into the window.
​Make sure to also add the variables from your .env file into the Environment section in OMV.

FAQ: ​Why is there "no docker compose" initially?
Startung m4b V4 there's no prefilled docker compose file. ​The repository uses a template system. Because there are many different passive income apps some more resource hungry than others, a static docker-compose.yaml would be massive and poorly customizable. The main script acts as a "configurator" that builds a clean, custom compose file tailored just on your needs.
