In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install Ghostfolio, an open-source portfolio tracker, on Alpine Linux latest release.
Ghostfolio has some dependencies that we will need to install first. Open your terminal and run the following command:
sudo apk update && sudo apk add --no-cache curl nodejs npm git
The above command updates the package manager and installs required dependencies such as curl, nodejs, npm and git.
To install Ghostfolio, we will need to clone the GitHub repository. Run the following command to clone the repository to your local directory:
git clone https://github.com/ghostfolio/ghostfolio.git
This command will clone the Ghostfolio repository into the ghostfolio directory.
Next, we will move into the cloned directory and install the required dependencies using npm. Run the following command to install dependencies:
cd ghostfolio
npm install
Once the installation completes, you can start Ghostfolio using the following command:
npm run start
Ghostfolio is now running, and you can access it using your web browser. Open your browser and type http://localhost:3000/ in the address bar.
You should now see the Ghostfolio web interface.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install Ghostfolio on Alpine Linux. Now you can customize Ghostfolio and start tracking your investment portfolio.
