Installing Rapido on EndeavourOS Latest

Rapido is an open-source tool designed for simplifying the process of setting up a local development environment. It is available via the InfoLibre Git repository, specifically at https://framagit.org/InfoLibre/rapido.

In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Rapido on your EndeavourOS Latest installation.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, you will need:

• A terminal emulator installed on your system.
• Basic knowledge of running commands on the command line.

Step 1: Update your system

We will begin by updating our EndeavourOS system. You can do this by opening a terminal emulator and running the following command:

sudo pacman -Syu

This will ensure that your system is up to date, and you have the latest software packages installed.

Step 2: Install Git

Rapido is hosted on Git, and we need to install Git to be able to clone the repository to our system.

To install Git, run the following command:

sudo pacman -S git

Step 3: Clone the Rapido repository

Now that Git is installed, we can move ahead and clone the Rapido Git repository.

You can do this by running the following command:

git clone https://framagit.org/InfoLibre/rapido

This will clone the Rapido repository to the directory where you run the command from.

Step 4: Install Rapido dependencies

Next, we need to install the dependencies required by Rapido to run.

Navigate to the rapido directory that you just cloned and run the following command:

./bin/rapido init

This will install the required dependencies for Rapido.

Step 5: Add Rapido to your PATH

For ease of use, we will now add the Rapido executable to your PATH environment variable.

To do this, run the following command:

echo 'export PATH="$PATH:/path/to/rapido"' >> ~/.bashrc

Make sure to replace /path/to/rapido with the actual path to your Rapido directory. You can find the path by running the pwd command while in the rapido directory.

Once you enter the command above, Rapido will be added to your PATH, and you can run the rapido command from any directory on your system.

Step 6: Test the installation

To test whether Rapido is installed correctly, run the following command:

rapido info

This will display information about your system and validate that Rapido is working correctly.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Rapido on your EndeavourOS Latest system. You can now use Rapido to manage your local development environment and streamline your workflow.
