In this tutorial, we'll go through the steps of installing Nhost on EndeavourOS Latest. Nhost is an open-source backend as a service (BaaS) framework, which allows you to easily build and deploy web and mobile applications with a GraphQL API and PostgreSQL database.
Before we begin, ensure that your system meets these requirements:
First, update your system and all packages to the latest version. Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
This command will update all the packages on your system.
Nhost requires a few dependencies to be installed on your system. Install these dependencies by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S git nodejs npm postgresql
This command will install Git, Node.js, NPM, and PostgreSQL.
Nhost offers a CLI tool that you can install on your system to interact with their services better. Run the following command to install the Nhost CLI globally:
sudo npm i -g nhost
This command will install the Nhost CLI globally, which means you can run nhost
command from anywhere in your terminal.
To use Nhost, you need to create an account. Go to the Nhost website and sign up for a new account.
After creating an account, you need to set up your Nhost credentials on your system.
Run the following command:
nhost login
Once the command runs, you'll be prompted to enter your Nhost credentials. Enter your email and password to login.
Now that you have set up your credentials, it's time to create a new project. Enter the following command:
nhost create my-app
Replace my-app
with the name you want to give to your project.
This command will create a new project with the given name and prompt for a few more options.
Now that your Nhost project is set up, you can start your Nhost server. Enter the following command:
nhost dev
This command will start your Nhost server on your local machine.
Open your browser and visit http://localhost:3000. You'll be greeted with a message saying 'Hasura Backend Plus
is Up and Running!'.
You now have Nhost installed on your EndeavourOS Latest system. You can continue to develop and deploy applications using the GraphQL API and PostgreSQL database provided by Nhost.
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!
