Tryton is a powerful and flexible open-source business management tool that allows you to manage your company's finances, inventory, projects, and much more. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Tryton on EndeavourOS Latest operating system.
Before installing Tryton, you need to ensure that your system has the following prerequisites:
Tryton requires a PostgreSQL database in order to function. To install PostgreSQL on EndeavourOS Latest, execute the following command in your terminal:
sudo pacman -S postgresql
The command above will install PostgreSQL and its dependencies on your system.
After installing PostgreSQL, you need to create a new PostgreSQL user and a database for Tryton. Execute the following commands in your terminal to create a new user named tryton_user and a database named trytondb:
sudo su - postgres
psql
CREATE USER tryton_user WITH PASSWORD 'tryton_password';
CREATE DATABASE trytondb OWNER tryton_user;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE trytondb to tryton_user;
The above command will create a new PostgreSQL user and database and grant all privileges to this user.
Now that the prerequisites are completed, you can proceed with the installation of Tryton. Execute the following command in your terminal to install the Tryton server and client:
sudo pacman -S tryton trytond
After the installation is complete, you need to configure Tryton to use the database you created in Step 2. Open your favorite text editor and create a new configuration file with the following content:
[options]
db_type = postgresql
db_host = localhost
db_port = 5432
db_user = tryton_user
db_password = tryton_password
db_name = trytondb
Save the file as trytond.conf and move it to /etc/trytond.conf:
sudo mv trytond.conf /etc/trytond.conf
Now that Tryton is installed and configured, you need to start the Tryton server by executing the following command:
sudo systemctl start trytond
You can also enable the Tryton server to automatically start at system boot by executing the following command:
sudo systemctl enable trytond
To start the Tryton client, execute the following command in your terminal:
tryton
This will open a new Tryton client window where you can log in and start using Tryton.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Tryton on EndeavourOS Latest operating system.
