Tsuru is a modern application platform, a free and open-source platform as a service that automates the deployment and scaling of your application, freeing you up to focus on development. Tsuru supports a wide range of languages, databases, and application frameworks. This tutorial will guide you through the installation process of Tsuru on Arch Linux.
Before starting the installation process, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
Open the terminal and run the following command to update the package list and upgrade the system:
sudo pacman -Syu
The first step towards installing Tsuru on Arch Linux is to install its dependencies. Run the following command:
sudo pacman -S git libgit2 mercurial golang ruby redis npm
Tsuru requires a MongoDB database to function correctly. Install MongoDB by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S mongodb
After installation, start the MongoDB service and enable it to run at system startup:
sudo systemctl start mongodb
sudo systemctl enable mongodb
To install Tsuru, you need to clone the Tsuru source code and compile it on your system. Run the following commands in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/tsuru/tsuru.git
cd tsuru
make install
The above command will compile and install Tsuru on your Arch Linux system.
Before using Tsuru, you need to configure it correctly. Tsuru configuration is stored in a file named tsuru.conf
located in the /etc/tsuru/
directory.
To configure Tsuru, create a new tsuru.conf
file and copy the default configuration:
sudo cp /etc/tsuru/tsuru.conf /etc/tsuru/tsuru.conf.default
sudo cp /etc/tsuru/tsuru.conf.sample /etc/tsuru/tsuru.conf
Edit the tsuru.conf
file and make the necessary changes to suit your requirements.
After completing the configuration, start the Tsuru service by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start tsuru
You can check the status of the Tsuru service by running:
systemctl status tsuru
That's it. You have successfully installed Tsuru on your Arch Linux system. You can now deploy and manage your applications using Tsuru. We hope this tutorial has been helpful!
