Tracks is a web-based application that lets you manage your tasks, projects, and notes. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Tracks on Clear Linux Latest.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following:
Before we can install Tracks, we need to install a few dependencies:
sudo swupd bundle-add ruby-basic
sudo swupd bundle-add sqlite
sudo zypper install ruby2.5-rubygem-bundler
Now that we have our dependencies installed, we can install Tracks:
git clone https://github.com/TracksApp/tracks.git
cd tracks
bundle install --without development test
Next, we need to configure Tracks. Copy the example configuration files and edit them as needed:
cp config/database.yml.example config/database.yml
cp config/site.yml.example config/site.yml
Open config/database.yml and edit the database configuration:
production:
adapter: sqlite3
database: /path/to/database.sqlite
Where you should replace /path/to/database.sqlite with the path where you want to store the database file.
Next, open config/site.yml and edit the session secret key:
session_secret_key: your-session-secret-key-here
We need to create the database before we can use Tracks:
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:migrate
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake db:seed
We are now ready to start Tracks:
cd ..
RAILS_ENV=production tracks start
And that's it! You should now be able to access Tracks by going to http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.
In this tutorial we have shown you how to install Tracks on Clear Linux Latest. With Tracks you can manage all your tasks, projects and notes in an efficient manner.
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!
