# Installation on Alpine Linux
## Enabling the Community Repository
dnscrypt-proxy is in the 'community' repository which needs to be enabled in `/etc/apk/respositories` by removing the comment `#` on the appropriate line e.g.
```
# main and community enabled, testing disabled on the 'edge' branch
http://alpine.mirror.wearetriple.com/edge/main
http://alpine.mirror.wearetriple.com/edge/community
#http://alpine.mirror.wearetriple.com/edge/testing
```
If you're not running on 'edge' then you might see the version numbers instead
```
# main and community enabled, testing disabled on the 'V3.9' branch
http://alpine.mirror.wearetriple.com/V3.9/main
http://alpine.mirror.wearetriple.com/V3.9/community
#http://alpine.mirror.wearetriple.com/V3.9/testing
```
## Installation
Alpine maintains discreet packages for dnscrypt-proxy, and the openrc package for managing the service
```sh
apk update && apk add dnscrypt-proxy dnscrypt-proxy-openrc
```
## Service Setup
To start at boot, use
```sh
rc-update add dnscrypt-proxy default
```
Then to start the service immediately...
```sh
rc-service dnscrypt-proxy start
```
or
```sh
/etc/init.d/dnscrypt-proxy start
```
## Files
Configuration of the `/etc/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml` file is discussed elsewhere on this wiki.
There are also some examples on [https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/DNSCrypt-Proxy](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/DNSCrypt-Proxy).
Example configuration files are stored in `/usr/share/dnscrypt-proxy`.
## Upgrades
When upgrading the package, a new file `/etc/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml.apk-new` will be created. The original configuration file remains, and the new default configuration file gets this `apk-new` extension. Be aware that new configuration properties (if available) will have their default values in that file only, and can't be moved into the original. To see the differences, use `diff`
```sh
diff /etc/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml /etc/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml.apk-new
```
