Pagekit is a powerful and lightweight content management system that is easy to use and extendable. It is built on modern technologies such as Symfony components and Vue.js, and can be installed on a variety of platforms including Arch Linux. In this tutorial, we will cover the steps required to install Pagekit on Arch Linux.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
The first step of the installation process is to download the latest version of Pagekit from the official website. You can do this by running the following command in a terminal on your Arch Linux system:
wget https://pagekit.com/download/latest
This will download the latest version of Pagekit in a compressed format.
Once the download is complete, you will need to extract the archive to your web server's document root directory. You can do this by using the tar command:
sudo tar -zxvf pagekit-*.tar.gz -C /path/to/document/root
Here, replace /path/to/document/root with the actual path to your document root directory.
After extracting the archive, you need to set the correct permissions for the Pagekit files and directories. This can be done by running the following command in a terminal:
sudo chown -R http:http /path/to/document/root
Here, replace /path/to/document/root with the actual path to your document root directory.
In order to access Pagekit from a web browser, you need to create a virtual host for it. This can be done by creating a new configuration file in your web server's configuration directory.
For example, if you are using Apache, you can create a new virtual host by creating a new file in the /etc/httpd/conf/extra directory:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/pagekit.conf
And adding the following configuration:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/path/to/document/root"
ServerName example.com
<Directory "/path/to/document/root">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Here, replace /path/to/document/root with the actual path to your document root directory, and example.com with your domain name or server IP address.
After creating the virtual host, you need to restart your web server to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl restart httpd
If you are using Nginx, you can restart it by running:
sudo systemctl restart nginx
Once you have completed the above steps, you can now access Pagekit by visiting your site in a web browser. To complete the installation, follow the on-screen instructions to create your admin account and database connection.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Pagekit on Arch Linux. You can now begin creating your website or blog with this powerful CMS.
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!
