Vendure is an open-source and scalable e-commerce platform built using Node.js, TypeScript, and GraphQL. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Vendure on Clear Linux Latest.
Before starting the installation, make sure you have the following:
Vendure uses PostgreSQL as its default database management system. You can install PostgreSQL on your Clear Linux system by running the following command in the terminal:
$ sudo swupd bundle-add postgresql
Once the installation is complete, start the PostgreSQL service and enable it to start at boot time:
$ sudo systemctl start postgresql
$ sudo systemctl enable postgresql
You can install Vendure on your Clear Linux system by following these steps:
Create a new directory for your Vendure project:
$ mkdir my-vendure-store
$ cd my-vendure-store
Initialize a new Node.js project:
$ yarn init -y
Add Vendure as a dependency to your project:
$ yarn add @vendure/core @vendure/admin-ui @vendure/shop-api-plugin
Create a new .env file and add the PostgreSQL database connection details:
DATABASE_HOST=localhost
DATABASE_PORT=5432
DATABASE_NAME=your_database_name
DATABASE_USER=your_database_user
DATABASE_PASSWORD=your_database_password
Replace your_database_name, your_database_user, and your_database_password with your actual PostgreSQL database details.
Generate the Vendure bootstrap files by running the following command:
$ npx vendure bootstrap --shop --admin
After installing Vendure, you can start the server by running:
$ yarn dev
This command starts the Vendure server in development mode. You can access the admin panel by navigating to http://localhost:3000/admin and the shop API by navigating to http://localhost:3000/shop.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed and started Vendure on Clear Linux Latest! You can now start building your e-commerce store with Vendure.
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!
