Gancio is a web-based application that helps users to create events and schedules. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Gancio on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
Before you start the installation process, make sure you meet the following prerequisites:
The first step is to update the Fedora CoreOS system to the latest version. To do this, run the following command:
sudo rpm-ostree update
This command will download and install any available updates for the system.
Gancio requires several dependencies to run properly. You can install them using the following command:
sudo dnf install -y git python3 python3-pip python3-wheel
This command will install the required dependencies.
Next, you need to clone the Gancio Git repository to your Fedora CoreOS instance. To do this, run the following command:
sudo git clone https://github.com/gancio/gancio.git /opt/gancio
This command will clone the Gancio Git repository to the /opt/gancio directory.
To install Gancio, you need to navigate to the /opt/gancio directory:
cd /opt/gancio
Then, you can use pip3 to install Gancio and its dependencies:
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
To configure Gancio, you need to create a configuration file. You can use the sample configuration file provided by Gancio as a template. Copy the sample file to a new file named gancio.cfg:
sudo cp config/{config-sample.cfg,gancio.cfg}
Then, edit the new file, gancio.cfg, to suit your needs:
sudo nano gancio.cfg
In this file, you can configure settings such as the database connection, the email server settings, and the secret key used to encrypt session data.
To launch Gancio, run the following command:
sudo python3 run.py
This will start the Gancio application with the configuration settings you specified.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Gancio on your Fedora CoreOS instance. You can now access Gancio by navigating to http://localhost:5000 in your web browser.
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!
