CouchCMS is an open-source content management system that can be installed on a wide range of platforms. Fedora CoreOS is a minimalist operating system built with the aim of running containerized workloads securely and efficiently. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps required to install CouchCMS on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
To install CouchCMS on Fedora CoreOS, you need to:
First, you will need to download the latest release of CouchCMS from the official website.
curl -O https://www.couchcms.com/downloads/latest.php
Next, you will need to extract the CouchCMS archive that you have downloaded.
tar -xzf latest.php
This will create a new directory called couchcms in your current directory.
CouchCMS requires a web server and PHP to run. Fedora CoreOS comes with podman, which can be used to run Apache and PHP in a containerized environment.
To install Apache and PHP, create a new podman container using the official httpd and php images.
podman run -itd --name couchcms \
-p 8080:80 \
-v $(pwd)/couchcms:/var/www/html \
docker.io/library/httpd:2.4
This command will start a new container named couchcms, expose port 8080 on your Fedora CoreOS host, and map the couchcms directory as the default document root directory for the web server.
CouchCMS should now be accessible via a web browser. To access CouchCMS, open a web browser and visit the following URL:
http://<your-fc-host-address>:8080/
You should see the CouchCMS installation page.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation of CouchCMS. You will need to provide your database details, create a new administrator account, and configure other settings as required.
You have now successfully installed CouchCMS on Fedora CoreOS Latest. You can now start building your website or application using CouchCMS.
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!
