In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install the Blog platform on Clear Linux Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation process, please ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
First, you need to install the required dependencies to run Blog on Clear Linux. To install them, execute the following commands:
sudo swupd bundle-add nodejs-basic
sudo swupd bundle-add rust-dev
After installing the dependencies, clone the Blog repository by executing the following command:
git clone https://github.com/m1k1o/blog.git
This will create a copy of the repository on your local machine.
To configure your Blog, navigate to the cloned directory:
cd blog
sudo npm install
sudo npm run build
cp config.default.js config.js
After running these commands, update the configuration file config.js as per your requirements.
Now that you have configured the Blog, you can start the server by executing the following command:
sudo npm start
This will start the Blog server, and you can access it by visiting http://localhost:8080 in your web browser.
By default, the Blog platform requires authentication to create and edit posts. To create a user, execute the following command:
./blog-auth create <username> <password>
Replace <username> and <password> with your desired credentials. This will create a user in the database, and you can use it to log in to the Blog platform.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed the Blog platform on Clear Linux Latest. You can now replace the default content with your own and use the platform to publish your blog.
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!
