[https://paperless-ngx.com Paperless-ngx] is a community-supported open-source document management system that transforms your physical documents into a searchable online archive, allowing you to reduce paper clutter.

== Setup ==
The following example configuration will enable Paperless locally{{file|/etc/nixos/configuration.nix|nix|3=environment.etc."paperless-admin-pass".text = "admin";
services.paperless = {
  enable = true;
  passwordFile = "/etc/paperless-admin-pass";
};}}After applying the configuration you can access the instance via http://localhost:28981 and login with username <code>admin</code> and password <code>admin</code>.

Another example below could be used on a server with an actual URL and some extra settings.<syntaxhighlight lang="nix">
services.paperless = {
  enable = true;
  consumptionDirIsPublic = true;
  settings = {
    PAPERLESS_CONSUMER_IGNORE_PATTERN = [
      ".DS_STORE/*"
      "desktop.ini"
    ];
    PAPERLESS_OCR_LANGUAGE = "deu+eng";
    PAPERLESS_OCR_USER_ARGS = {
      optimize = 1;
      pdfa_image_compression = "lossless";
    };
    PAPERLESS_URL = "https://paperless.example.com";
  };
};
</syntaxhighlight>After the installation, you can set an admin user yourself via the following command on the server <syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
sudo paperless-manage createsuperuser
</syntaxhighlight>
