How to Install IceHrm on Fedora CoreOS Latest

IceHrm is an open-source human resource management application that allows you to manage employee data, leave requests, performance management, and time tracking. Installation of IceHrm on Fedora CoreOS can be done in a few easy steps.

In this tutorial, we will look at the steps required to install IceHrm on Fedora CoreOS Latest.

Prerequisites

• A machine running Fedora CoreOS latest version.
• A working internet connection.
• A minimum of 2GB RAM and 2 CPU cores.

Step 1: Install the Docker Package Manager

The first step is to install the Docker package manager. Execute the following command to install Docker:

$ sudo rpm-ostree install docker –-ignore-includes

The above command installs the Docker package without including it in the OSTree-based OS image, which is the default behavior.

After successful installation of Docker, enable docker to start at boot by executing the following command:

$ sudo systemctl enable docker
$ sudo systemctl start docker

To verify if docker is installed correctly or not, run the following command:

$ sudo docker run hello-world

Step 2: Install IceHrm

For the installation of the IceHrm application, you will have to use the docker-compose utility.

First, create a new directory to store the IceHrm configuration files:

$ mkdir icehrm
$ cd icehrm

Once you are in the IceHrm directory, you can use the following command to create a new docker-compose file:

sudo vi docker-compose.yml

Copy the following content to the docker-compose file:

version: "3"
services:
  app:
    image: icehrm/icehrm:latest
      ports:
        - 9090:443
      restart: always
      environment:
        APP_URL: https://<your server IP or domain name>
        DB_HOST: db
        DB_PORT: 3306
        DB_DATABASE: icehrm
        DB_USERNAME: root
        DB_PASSWORD: mypassword
        MAIL_DRIVER: smtp
        MAIL_HOST: <your mail server>
        MAIL_PORT: <smtp port>
        MAIL_USERNAME: <username>
        MAIL_PASSWORD: <password>
        MAIL_ENCRYPTION: ssl
      volumes:
        - /data/icehrm:/app/public/tenant_files
  db:
    image: mysql:5.7
    restart: always
    environment:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: <root password>
      MYSQL_DATABASE: icehrm
      MYSQL_USER: icehrm
      MYSQL_PASSWORD:<icehrm password>
    volumes:
      - icehrmdb:/var/lib/mysql
volumes:
  icehrmdb:

Save and exit the file. This docker-compose file defines an IceHrm service and the database service.

You can now run the IceHrm application by executing the following command:

sudo docker-compose up -d

This command will start the IceHrm application in detached mode.

Step 3: Access the IceHrm Application

After the installation of IceHrm, access it by opening a web browser and navigating to the IP address of your server or domain name followed by /icehrm.

For example:

https://<your server IP or domain name>/icehrm

You can then login to the IceHrm application using the default credentials:

Username: admin
Password: admin

After logging in, you can change the password and configuration settings to match your requirements.

Congratulations, you have successfully installed IceHrm on Fedora CoreOS latest version.

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!
