Vikunja is a to-do app that allows to manage your tasks, ideas, and notes in one place. This tutorial will show you how to install Vikunja on Elementary OS latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin with the installation process, make sure you have the following requirements:

• A user account with sudo privileges
• wget and unzip packages installed
• Access to a terminal

Step 1: Install Dependencies

Vikunja requires Python 3.5+ and PostgreSQL 9.6+ to run. You can install them using the following commands:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y python3 python3-dev python3-pip postgresql-13 postgresql-client-13 postgresql-server-dev-13 libpq-dev

Step 2: Create PostgreSQL Database

Next, we need to create a PostgreSQL database for Vikunja. To do this, run the following commands in your terminal:

sudo -u postgres createuser -P vikunjauser --interactive
sudo -u postgres createdb -O vikunjauser vikunja

You will be prompted to enter a password for the vikunjauser user. Choose a secure password and remember it.

Step 3: Download and Extract Vikunja

Download the latest version of Vikunja using the following command:

wget https://dl.vikunja.io/main/latest/vikunja-linux-amd64.zip

Next, extract the downloaded ZIP file using the following command:

unzip vikunja-linux-amd64.zip

This will create a directory named vikunja in your current working directory.

Step 4: Configure Vikunja

Create a configuration file for Vikunja using the following command:

cp vikunja/config.toml.example vikunja/config.toml

Open the vikunja/config.toml file using your favorite text editor and make the following changes:

• Set the listen value to "127.0.0.1:3030" to bind the server to the loopback interface only.
• Set the dsn value to "postgres://vikunjauser:password@localhost:5432/vikunja" where password is the password you set during database creation.

Step 5: Start Vikunja

To start Vikunja, navigate to the vikunja directory and run the following command:

./vikunja -migrate-up

This will start Vikunja and migrate the database to the latest version.
