How to Install DailyNotes on EndeavourOS Latest

DailyNotes, available on https://github.com/m0ngr31/DailyNotes, is a web app that allows users to create and manage notes. In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the installation process of DailyNotes on EndeavourOS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, ensure that you have the following:

• A Linux computer running EndeavourOS Latest
• Git installed on your system
• A web server installed on your system (we'll be using Apache)

Installation

Step 1: Clone the Repository

First, you'll need to clone the DailyNotes repository. To do this, open a terminal and enter the following command:

git clone https://github.com/m0ngr31/DailyNotes.git

This will create a new folder called DailyNotes in your current directory.

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Next, we need to install the dependencies required by DailyNotes:

cd DailyNotes
npm install

This will install all the dependencies listed in the package.json file.

Step 3: Configure Apache

Now, we need to configure Apache to serve the DailyNotes app. We'll create a new virtual host configuration file for DailyNotes. Open a terminal and enter the following command:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/dailynotes.conf

This will create a new file called dailynotes.conf in the /etc/httpd/conf/extra/ directory. Paste the following configuration into the file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName dailynotes.local
    DocumentRoot /path/to/DailyNotes
    <Directory /path/to/DailyNotes>
        Options +FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Replace /path/to/DailyNotes with the path to your DailyNotes folder. Save and close the file by pressing Ctrl+X, followed by Y, and finally Enter.

Step 4: Enable the Virtual Host

Now, we need to enable the virtual host configuration by creating a symbolic link to the dailynotes.conf file. Enter the following command in a terminal:

sudo ln -s /etc/httpd/conf/extra/dailynotes.conf /etc/httpd/conf-enabled/

Step 5: Restart Apache

Finally, we need to restart Apache to apply the changes:

sudo systemctl restart httpd

Step 6: Access DailyNotes

You're now ready to access DailyNotes by navigating to http://dailynotes.local. If everything has been configured correctly, you'll be presented with the DailyNotes app.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we've guided you through the installation process of DailyNotes on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now create and manage notes from within the DailyNotes app. Happy notetaking!
