title: Deploy on Easypanel
---
Deploy Moltbot on Easypanel with a one-click template and finish setup in your browser.
Easypanel provides a simple way to deploy Docker applications with persistent storage
and automatic HTTPS.
## Prerequisites
- An [Easypanel](https://easypanel.io) instance (self-hosted or cloud)
- An API key from your preferred [model provider](/providers)
## Quick deployment
1. Open your Easypanel dashboard
2. Click **Create Service** and select **App**
3. Choose **GitHub** as the source
4. Enter repository: `moltbot/moltbot`
5. Select the **Dockerfile** build method
6. Configure environment variables (see below)
7. Add a volume mounted at `/data`
8. Deploy
## Environment variables
| Variable | Required | Description |
|----------|----------|-------------|
| `PORT` | Yes | Set to `8080` |
| `SETUP_PASSWORD` | Yes | Password to access the `/setup` wizard |
| `CLAWDBOT_STATE_DIR` | Recommended | Set to `/data/.clawdbot` |
| `CLAWDBOT_WORKSPACE_DIR` | Recommended | Set to `/data/workspace` |
| `CLAWDBOT_GATEWAY_TOKEN` | Recommended | Admin secret for gateway API access |
## Volume configuration
Add a persistent volume to preserve configuration across deploys:
- **Mount path**: `/data`
- **Size**: 1GB or more
This stores your Moltbot configuration, credentials, and workspace.
## Domain and HTTPS
Easypanel automatically provisions HTTPS certificates. After deployment:
1. Go to **Domains** in your service settings
2. Add your custom domain or use the generated Easypanel domain
3. Easypanel handles TLS termination automatically
## Deploy command
Configure the deploy command to start the gateway:
```
node dist/index.js gateway --bind lan --port 8080
```
## Health check
Configure a health check to ensure your service stays healthy:
- **Type**: HTTP
- **Path**: `/health`
- **Port**: 8080
- **Interval**: 30 seconds
## After deployment
### Complete the setup wizard
1. Navigate to `https://<your-domain>/setup`
2. Enter your `SETUP_PASSWORD`
3. Select a model provider and paste your API key
4. Optionally configure messaging channels (Telegram, Discord, Slack)
5. Click **Run setup**
### Access the Control UI
The web dashboard is available at `https://<your-domain>/moltbot`.
## Getting chat tokens
### Telegram bot token
1. Message `@BotFather` in Telegram
2. Run `/newbot`
3. Copy the token (looks like `123456789:AA...`)
4. Paste it into `/setup`
### Discord bot token
1. Go to https://discord.com/developers/applications
2. **New Application** and choose a name
3. **Bot** and **Add Bot**
4. **Enable MESSAGE CONTENT INTENT** under Bot and Privileged Gateway Intents (required)
5. Copy the **Bot Token** and paste into `/setup`
6. Invite the bot to your server (OAuth2 URL Generator; scopes: `bot`, `applications.commands`)
## Backups and migration
Export your configuration and workspace at any time:
```
https://<your-domain>/setup/export
```
This downloads a portable backup you can restore on any Moltbot host.
## Resource recommendations
| Usage | Memory | CPU |
|-------|--------|-----|
| Personal use | 512MB | 0.5 cores |
| Small team | 1GB | 1 core |
| Multiple channels | 2GB | 2 cores |
## Troubleshooting
### Service fails to start
Check the deploy logs in Easypanel. Common issues:
- Missing `SETUP_PASSWORD` environment variable
- Port mismatch (ensure `PORT=8080`)
- Volume not mounted at `/data`
### Health check failures
Ensure the health check is configured for port 8080 and path `/health`. The gateway
needs a few seconds to start before responding to health checks.
### Data not persisting
Verify the volume is mounted at `/data` and that `CLAWDBOT_STATE_DIR=/data/.clawdbot`
is set in environment variables.
