Before you start, make sure you have the following:

• A Fedora CoreOS Latest instance
• SSH client or direct shell access to your instance
• Basic knowledge of the Linux command-line

Installation Steps

Follow these steps to install Chartbrew on Fedora CoreOS Latest:

Step 1 - Install Docker

Chartbrew runs on Docker, so the first step is to install Docker on your Fedora CoreOS Latest machine.

To install Docker, run the following command:

$ sudo rpm-ostree install docker

Step 2 - Install Docker Compose

Next, install Docker Compose. This is a tool that allows you to define and run multi-container Docker applications.

To install Docker Compose, run the following command:

$ sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Step 3 - Install Git

The next step is to install Git. Git is a version control system that is used to manage the source code for Chartbrew.

To install Git, run the following command:

$ sudo rpm-ostree install git

Step 4 - Clone Chartbrew Repository

Now that you have Docker, Docker Compose, and Git installed, it's time to clone the Chartbrew repository.

To clone the Chartbrew repository, run the following command:

$ git clone git://github.com/chartbrew/chartbrew.git

This command will create a new directory called chartbrew in your current working directory.

Step 5 - Configure Docker Compose

Before you can start Chartbrew, you need to configure Docker Compose.

To configure Docker Compose, navigate to the chartbrew directory and create a file called docker-compose.yml:

$ cd chartbrew
$ touch docker-compose.yml

Next, open the docker-compose.yml file in a text editor:

$ nano docker-compose.yml

Paste the following code into the file:

version: '3'

services:
  chartbrew-db:
    container_name: db
    image: mongo:latest
    volumes:
      - ./data/db:/data/db
    environment:
      - MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=admin
      - MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=admin
    restart: always
    networks:
      - chartbrew-network
  chartbrew-app:
    container_name: app
    build: ./chartbrew
    ports:
      - '3000:3000'
    depends_on:
      - chartbrew-db
    environment:
      - DATABASE_URI=mongodb://admin:admin@db:27017/chartbrew-db
      - SECRET_KEY=mysecretkey
    restart: always
    networks:
      - chartbrew-network

networks:
  chartbrew-network:
    driver: bridge

Step 6 - Build and Run Chartbrew

Finally, it's time to build and run Chartbrew.

To build and run Chartbrew, run the following command:

$ docker-compose up -d

This command will download and build the necessary Docker images and start the Chartbrew container.

Wait for a few moments for Chartbrew to start up. You can verify that Chartbrew is running by navigating to http://localhost:3000 in your web browser. If everything is working correctly, you should see the Chartbrew login screen.

Step 7 - Create an Admin User

The final step is to create an admin user that you can use to log into Chartbrew.

To create an admin user, run the following command:

$ docker exec -it app npm run createAdmin

This command will prompt you to enter your email address and password. Once you have entered your details, an admin user will be created, and you can log in to Chartbrew using these credentials.
