#Create and serve multiple Shaarlis (farm)
Example bash script (creates multiple shaarli instances and generates an HTML index of them)

```bash
#!/bin/bash
set -o errexit
set -o nounset

#config
shaarli_base_dir='/var/www/shaarli'
accounts='bob john whatever username'
shaarli_repo_url='https://github.com/shaarli/Shaarli'
ref="master"

#clone multiple shaarli instances
if [ ! -d "$shaarli_base_dir" ]; then mkdir "$shaarli_base_dir"; fi[](.html)
   
for account in $accounts; do
    if [ -d "$shaarli_base_dir/$account" ];[](.html)
	then echo "[info] account $account already exists, skipping";[](.html)
	else echo "[info] creating new account $account ..."; git clone --quiet "$shaarli_repo_url" -b "$ref" "$shaarli_base_dir/$account"; fi[](.html)
done

This script just serves as an example. More precise or complex (applying custom configuration, etc) automation is possible using configuration management software like [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/)[](.html)
