Kinto is an open-source JSON document store that allows users to create and manage data-driven applications. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Kinto on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
Before starting the installation process, make sure you have:
First, ensure that you are running the latest version of Fedora CoreOS by updating and upgrading your system using the following command:
sudo rpm-ostree update
Kinto requires Python 3 and a PostgreSQL database to function. Install both packages using the following command:
sudo dnf install python3 postgresql postgresql-server -y
Once PostgreSQL is installed, initialize the database and start the service using the following commands:
sudo postgresql-setup --initdb
sudo systemctl start postgresql
Next, create a new PostgreSQL user and database for Kinto using the following commands:
sudo -u postgres createuser kinto
sudo -u postgres createdb kinto_db
sudo -u postgres psql -c "alter user kinto with password 'password';"
sudo -u postgres psql -c "grant all privileges on database kinto_db to kinto;"
Install Kinto using pip3 by running the following command:
sudo pip3 install kinto
Before starting the Kinto server, you need to configure Kinto by creating a configuration file. Create a new file named kinto.ini by running the following command:
sudo nano /etc/kinto/kinto.ini
Add the following lines to the file:
[app:main]
backend = kinto.core.storage.postgresql
[storage]
dsn = postgresql://kinto:password@localhost/kinto_db
Save and exit the file.
You can now start the Kinto server using the following command:
sudo kinto start /etc/kinto/kinto.ini
The server will start running and listening on port 8888. You can access the Kinto web interface by navigating to http://server_ip:8888/v1/. You should see a JSON object indicating that Kinto is running.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Kinto on Fedora CoreOS latest.
