In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Strider on Alpine Linux latest version. Strider is a continuous deployment platform that built on top of Node.js.
Let's get started:
Before installing any package or application, it's essential to update your package repositories to the latest version. To update your package repository, run the following command in your terminal as root or sudo user:
apk update
This command will update all your package repositories to the latest version.
Strider requires Git to manage version control. In Alpine Linux, Git is available in the package repository. To install Git, run:
apk add git
This command will install Git on your Alpine Linux system.
Strider is built on top of Node.js, so you need to install it. In Alpine Linux, Node.js and NPM are available in the package repository. To install them, run:
apk add nodejs npm
This command will install Node.js and NPM on your Alpine Linux system.
Once you have Git, Node.js, and NPM installed, you can now proceed to install Strider on your Alpine Linux system. To install Strider, run the following command:
npm install -g strider
This command will install Strider globally in your system.
After installing Strider, start the Strider service, which will listen to the requests on port 3000. To start the Strider service, run the following command:
strider
This command will start the Strider service, and you can now access it from your browser by entering the following URL:
http://localhost:3000
Now you have successfully installed Strider on your Alpine Linux system, and you can use it to manage continuous deployment. If you have any difficulties or queries, please refer to the Strider document or Alpine Linux community forum.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
