Wakapi is a lightweight, open-source analytics server that can be used to collect and display statistics about your coding activity. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Wakapi on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before you start, make sure you have the following:
The first step is to install the dependencies necessary for running Wakapi. To do this, run the following commands:
sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S git python python-pip python-virtualenv python-psycopg2 postgresql
Next, you need to clone the Wakapi repository from GitHub. To do this, navigate to the directory where you want to store the repository and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/muety/wakapi.git
Create a virtual environment for Wakapi by running the following command:
virtualenv venv
Activate the virtual environment by running:
source venv/bin/activate
Install the Python dependencies by running the following command:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Wakapi requires a PostgreSQL database to store its data. Create a new user and database for Wakapi by running the following commands:
sudo su - postgres
createuser --interactive
createdb wakapi
exit
Update the credentials in the wakapi/wakapi.cfg file to reflect the new user and database:
SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = 'postgresql://username:password@localhost/wakapi'
Replace username
and password
with the values for the user and database you just created.
Initialize the database by running the following commands:
flask db init
flask db migrate
flask db upgrade
Start Wakapi by running the following command:
flask run
You should see the following output:
* Serving Flask app "wakapi"
* Flask running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Wakapi on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now start using it to track your coding activity.
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!
