Eclipse Che is an open-source, cloud-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that provides a fully Featured workspace that includes everything an engineer needs to develop, build, test, and run software. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Eclipse Che on Clear Linux.
Before we start, you need to ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
Eclipse Che runs inside Docker containers, so you need to install Docker on your system before installing Eclipse Che. You can install Docker using the following command:
sudo swupd bundle-add containers-basic
Confirm that Docker is installed by running the following command:
sudo docker version
You can install Eclipse Che either by using the Eclipse Che installer script or manually installing it. In this tutorial, we will use the Eclipse Che installer script.
You can install the Eclipse Che installer script using the following command:
sudo curl -fsSL https://www.eclipse.org/che/chectl/ | sudo bash
The above command downloads the Che Installer script and saves it to the /usr/local/bin directory.
Once you have the Che installer script installed, you can proceed to install Eclipse Che. To install Eclipse Che, run the following command:
sudo chectl server:start
After running this command, it retrieves and starts the Che server container.
Check the Che server status by running the following command:
sudo chectl server:status
You can also install Eclipse Che manually by downloading the binary file and extracting it on your system. You can download the latest version of Eclipse Che from the official website.
After downloading the file, extract it to your desired directory using the following command:
tar zxvf /path/to/eclipse-che-latest.tar.gz -C /path/to/extract
Once you have successfully installed Eclipse Che, you can access the Eclipse Che web interface by navigating to http://localhost on your web browser.
You have now successfully installed Eclipse Che on Clear Linux, and you can start developing your projects from the cloud-based IDE.
In this tutorial, we have demonstrated how to install Eclipse Che on Clear Linux. Eclipse Che is an excellent way to develop your projects in a cloud-based IDE environment with many features, including code completion, debugging, and version control. You can now start exploring and utilizing the power of Eclipse Che for your project development.
