Install and setup instructions

[cmdr-nova]

I have a website I want to move to a VPS running Ubuntu that uses Nginx, and I feel as though Anubis is 100% needed in order to stop from being DDoSed and stolen from by AI. The problem is, the actual instructions on setting up Anubis aren't clear at all. The setup instructions are just an explanation of environment variables, and the install instructions are just an example of what you would do if you were protecting gitea (also not what I'm doing).

Since Google results specifically only route directly to the actual Anubis page, I am in need of a little help. I just want to protect my website from no-consent AI

A lot of this depends on how your website is set up and what you want to do. What does your backend look like?

Try this: https://anubis.techaro.lol/docs/admin/environments/nginx

Alright, this explains a little bit about setting up the nginx configuration, but I'm still a bit unclear on how to get to this point. In the install instructions, I can use apt to retrieve Anubis, but since I'm not setting it up for a Gitea service, am I supposed to copy it like "sudo cp /etc/anubis/default.env /etc/anubis/website.env" where the website is the "service"

Yes, then you'd enable [email protected] in systemd

Alright, thanks for the clarification. I have to go to work here in a bit but I'll give this a shot tomorrow when I'm home again
