Chartbrew is a data visualization and management tool that allows you to create and share charts, manage data sources and more. It's a great tool for teams that need to collaborate on data-driven projects. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Chartbrew on Arch Linux.
Before installing Chartbrew, we need to install a number of dependencies on our system. Open the terminal and run the following commands:
sudo pacman -S git nodejs npm postgresql
This will install git, nodejs, npm and postgresql on your Arch Linux system.
Next, we need to clone the Chartbrew repository to our local machine. To do this, run the following command in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/chartbrew/chartbrew.git
This will clone the Chartbrew repository to the current directory.
Change into the Chartbrew directory by running:
cd chartbrew
Then, install the required Node packages using npm:
npm install
Create a new PostgreSQL database and user for Chartbrew:
sudo -u postgres psql
CREATE USER chartbrew WITH PASSWORD 'password';
CREATE DATABASE chartbrew;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE chartbrew TO chartbrew;
\q
Remember to replace 'password' with a strong password of your choice.
Next, copy the env.example file to .env:
cp env.example .env
And edit the .env file to add the database connection details:
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=5432
DB_NAME=chartbrew
DB_USER=chartbrew
DB_PASS=password
Finally, start Chartbrew by running:
npm start
This will start the Chartbrew server and make it accessible at http://localhost:3000.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Chartbrew on your Arch Linux system!
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!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
