Documize is an open-source collaborative platform for creating and managing knowledge base documentation. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install Documize on Alpine Linux.
Before starting with the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites available:
Before we begin with the installation process, it is essential to update the system to the latest version. To do so, open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apk update && apk upgrade
To install Documize, we need to install the following packages:
To install these packages, you can run the following command:
sudo apk add curl gnupg
Documize provides the packages for Alpine Linux in their official repository. To add this repository to our system, we need to create a new file called documize.list in the /etc/apk/repositories directory with the following content:
https://stable.documize.com/alpine/edge/latest/community
To create this file, run the following command:
sudo sh -c "echo 'https://stable.documize.com/alpine/edge/latest/community' >> /etc/apk/repositories/documize.list"
To authenticate the Documize packages, we need to import the Documize GPG key. To do so, run the following command:
curl https://stable.documize.com/gpg.key | sudo gpg --import -
Now we can install Documize by running the following command:
sudo apk add documize
After the installation completes, Documize will start running on port 8080. To access the Documize on your web browser, navigate to http://<your_server_ip>:8080/.
We have learned how to install and configure Documize on Alpine Linux. Now you can start creating and managing your knowledge base documentation with Documize.
