Misskey is a free, open-source, and decentralized social network platform that provides great features and privacy for its users. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Misskey on EndeavourOS.
First, you need to ensure that Git is installed on your system. You can check by running the following command in your terminal:
git --version
If it’s not installed, you can install it by running this command:
sudo pacman -S git
Clone the Misskey repository from GitHub using the Git command:
git clone https://github.com/syuilo/misskey.git
This will create a directory called misskey in your home directory.
Misskey requires Node.js and MongoDB to be installed on your system. If you don’t have Node.js and MongoDB, you can install them using the following command:
sudo pacman -S nodejs mongodb
Navigate to the misskey directory and install the dependencies by running this command:
cd misskey
npm i
Start the MongoDB service by running this command:
sudo systemctl start mongodb
Copy the .env.sample file using the following command:
cp .env.sample .env
Then edit the .env file to update the configurations. You can use any text editor of your choice.
Finally, start Misskey by running the following command:
npm start
Misskey will now start running on your system. You can access it by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000.
