Blog is an open-source blogging platform that can be installed on a variety of platforms. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Blog on EndeavourOS latest.
Before we begin, you must have the following prerequisites:
Once you have all these prerequisites set up, you are ready to begin installing Blog.
First, clone the Blog repository from Github to your machine. To do this, open a terminal and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/m1k1o/blog.git
This will download the Blog code to your machine.
After cloning the repository, navigate to the Blog directory using the terminal and run the following command to install the required libraries:
pip install -r requirements.txt
This command will download and install all necessary libraries for the Blog platform to run.
Next, you need to set up the database for Blog. To do this, run the following command within the Blog directory:
python manage.py migrate
This command will create the database and necessary tables for the Blog platform.
To create an admin user account for Blog, run the following command within the Blog directory:
python manage.py createsuperuser
This command will prompt you to enter a username, email, and password for the admin account.
To test the Blog platform, you can run the Django development server by running the command:
python manage.py runserver
This will launch a local server at http://127.0.0.1:8000/.
To deploy Blog to a production environment, you will need to configure Gunicorn and Nginx. This configuration is beyond the scope of this tutorial, but you can find more information in the Blog documentation.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Blog on EndeavourOS latest.
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!
