Alternatively, you can install the dependencies and setup apache and a database server yourself. The [documentation](https://paperless-ngx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup.html#installation) has a step by step guide on how to do it.
Migrating from Paperless-ng is easy, just drop in the new docker image! See the [documentation on migrating](https://paperless-ngx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setup.html#migrating-from-paperless-ng) for more details.

Migration is possible both from Paperless-ng or directly from the 'original' Paperless.
Migrating from Paperless-ng
===========================
Paperless-ngx is meant to be a drop-in replacement for Paperless-ng and thus upgrading should be
trivial for most users, especially when using docker. However, as with any major change, it is
recommended to take a full backup first. Once you are ready, simply change the docker image to
point to the new source. E.g. if using Docker Compose, edit ``docker-compose.yml`` and change:
.. code::
image: jonaswinkler/paperless-ng:latest
to
.. code::
image: ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest
and then run ``docker-compose up -d`` which will pull the new image recreate the container.
That's it!
Users who installed with the bare-metal route should also update their Git clone to point to
``https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx``, e.g. using the command
``git remote set-url origin https://github.com/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx`` and then pull the
lastest version.
