Raneto is an open-source flat-file CMS, which allows you to create a documentation website on your server without relying on a database. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Raneto on Clear Linux in a few simple steps.
Before you start installing Raneto, ensure that you have the following:
Follow the steps below to install Raneto on Clear Linux:
Raneto is built on top of Node.js, so you need to install Node.js on your system. To do that, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo swupd bundle-add nodejs-basic
Download the latest version of Raneto from the official website using the following command:
wget https://github.com/gilbitron/Raneto/releases/download/0.18.2/raneto-0.18.2.tar.gz
Unzip the downloaded package using the following command:
tar -zxvf raneto-0.18.2.tar.gz
Then, navigate to the unzipped directory:
cd raneto-0.18.2
Before running the Raneto server, you must install its dependencies. To install the dependencies, run the following command:
npm install --production
The next step is to configure Raneto by editing the configuration file config.default.js. To do that, run the following command:
cp config.default.js config.js
nano config.js
Replace the default configuration variables with your own values. For example, you can change the port on which Raneto will run:
config.port = 3000;
Save and exit the file by pressing CTRL + X, then Y and Enter.
Finally, start the Raneto server using the following command:
npm start
The server should now be running on the specified port. You can access the Raneto website by opening your web browser and entering the following URL:
http://your-server-ip:port
You have successfully installed Raneto on Clear Linux. Now you can use it to create a documentation website for your project.
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!
