6. Set up your database

Funkwhale uses a PostgreSQL database to store information. Follow these steps to set up your database.

Install PostgreSQL and the postgresql-contrib package. This package contains extra features that Funkwhale uses.
```
sudo apt-get install postgresql postgresql-contrib
```
Once you've installed PostgreSQL, launch a psql shell as the postgres user to set up your database.
```
sudo -u postgres psql
```

Create your Funkwhale database.

CREATE DATABASE funkwhale WITH ENCODING 'utf8';

Create a user for Funkwhale. This user needs all privileges so it can manage the database.
```
CREATE USER funkwhale;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE funkwhale TO funkwhale;
```
Once you're finished, exit the shell
```
exit
```

Run the following commands to create extra extensions for the funkwhale database.

sudo -u postgres psql funkwhale -c 'CREATE EXTENSION "unaccent";'
sudo -u postgres psql funkwhale -c 'CREATE EXTENSION "citext";'

Your database is ready to be populated! Use the manage.py script to create the database structure.
```
cd /srv/funkwhale/api
poetry run python manage.py migrate
```

You may see the following warning when applying migrations:

```{code}
"Your models have changes that are not yet reflected in a migration, and so won't be applied."
```

You can safely ignore this warning.

That's it! You've finished setting up your database.
