Tolgee is a translation management platform that can be used to manage translations for software projects. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install Tolgee on Alpine Linux Latest.
Before proceeding, we need to update the packages on Alpine Linux. We can do this by running the following command in the terminal:
apk update
Tolgee requires some dependencies to be installed on the system. To install these dependencies, run the following command:
apk add \
build-base \
libstdc++ \
icu-dev \
gettext-dev \
boost-dev \
openssl-dev \
cmake
Next, we need to download the Tolgee repository using Git. Run the following command to clone Tolgee from the official repository:
git clone https://github.com/tolgee/tolgee.git
Once the repository is cloned, we need to build the Tolgee server. Navigate to the cloned directory using the following command:
cd tolgee/server
Run the following command to build the Tolgee server:
mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make -j
After building Tolgee, we need to configure it. First, copy the configuration file from the Tolgee repository:
cp ../config/config.example.yml ../config/config.yml
Next, open the configuration file in a text editor and make any necessary changes to match your requirements.
Finally, start the Tolgee server using the following command:
./tolgee
In this tutorial, we have walked you through the steps to install Tolgee on Alpine Linux. Now you can start using Tolgee to manage translations for your software projects.
