Inventaire is a free and open-source platform that helps you to create an inventory of books, contributing to a collaborative and open knowledge network. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Inventaire on Arch Linux.
Before we begin, make sure that your Arch Linux is up-to-date by running the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Inventaire requires Node.js to be installed on your system. If Node.js is not installed on your system, you can install it by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S nodejs npm
Next, you need to clone the Inventaire repository using the git
command. You can install git
on your Arch Linux system by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S git
Once git
is installed, you can clone the Inventaire repository by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/inventaire/inventaire.git
After cloning the Inventaire repository, navigate to the cloned directory using the cd
command:
cd inventaire
Once you're inside the directory, install the project dependencies by running:
npm install
After the installation of dependencies is complete, you can start the Inventaire application by running:
npm run dev
This will start the application in a development environment.
You can now access Inventaire by navigating to http://localhost:3000/
on your web browser.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install the Inventaire application on Arch Linux. With the application installed and running, you can create an inventory of books and contribute to a collaborative and open knowledge network.
