Installing BudgetZero on Clear Linux

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have the following:

Step 1: Clone the repository

First, clone the BudgetZero repository from GitHub using the git clone command:

git clone https://github.com/budgetzero/budgetzero.git

BudgetZero require the following dependencies installed on your system:

You can install all the required dependencies by running the following command:

sudo swupd bundle-add python3-basic sqlite-basic

Step 3: Create a virtual environment

It is recommended to create a virtual environment for BudgetZero to keep its dependencies separate from other applications on your system.

To create a new virtual environment, navigate to the budgetzero directory and run the following command:

python3 -m venv env

This will create a new environment in a directory named env.

Step 4: Activate the virtual environment

To activate the virtual environment, run the following command:

source env/bin/activate

You should see the (env) prefix added to your terminal prompt, indicating that you are now working in the virtual environment.

Step 5: Install BudgetZero

Now, install BudgetZero and its dependencies using pip:

pip install -r requirements.txt

This will download and install all the required Python modules for BudgetZero.

Step 6: Configure the application

You need to create a config.py file to configure BudgetZero. You can use the sample config.sample.py file included in the repository as a template.

cp config.sample.py config.py

Open the config.py file in a text editor and modify it to match your preferences. For example, you may want to change the database location, server address or port number.

Step 7: Initialize the database

Before you can start using BudgetZero, you need to initialize the database by running the following command:

flask db upgrade

Step 8: Run the application

Finally, you can start the application by running the following command:

flask run

This will start a local web server that you can access at http://localhost:5000 in your web browser.
