How to Install Psono on Fedora CoreOS Latest

Psono is an open-source password manager that provides secure password storage and sharing for teams and individuals. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Psono on Fedora CoreOS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we get started, you will need:

Step 1: Install Docker

Psono is designed to run as a Docker container. Therefore, you need to install Docker on your system.

  1. Open the terminal on your Fedora CoreOS system.

  2. Run the following command to update the packages:

    sudo dnf update 
    
  3. Next, install Docker by running the following command:

    sudo dnf install docker
    
  4. Once the installation is complete, start the Docker service:

    sudo systemctl start docker
    

Step 2: Download Psono

  1. Open the terminal and run the following command to download Psono's Docker image:

    sudo docker pull psono/psono-server:latest
    

Step 3: Configure Psono

Now that you have downloaded the Psono image, you need to configure it.

  1. First, create a directory for Psono's data using the following command:

    sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/docker/volumes/psono-data/
    

    This command creates a directory in the docker volume to store Psono's data.

  2. Now, create a file called config.json in the same directory /var/lib/docker/volumes/psono-data/ using the following command:

    sudo nano /var/lib/docker/volumes/psono-data/config.json
    
  3. In the config.json file, paste the following JSON configuration for Psono:

    {
      "database": {
          "type": "sqlite",
          "sqlite": {
              "filename": "/data/main-database.sqlite"
          }
      },
      "secret_key": "CHANGE_ME",
      "debug": false,
      "https_only": false
    }
    

    This configuration file tells Psono to use an SQLite database for storing passwords and to run in debug mode. The secret key can be any value you provide but should be kept secret.

  4. Save and exit the file by pressing Ctrl+X, Y, and Enter.

Step 4: Run Psono

Now that the Psono image and configuration is ready, you can start the Psono Docker container.

  1. Open the terminal and run the following command:

    sudo docker run -d --name psono -p 8000:8000 -v psono-data:/data -v /var/lib/docker/volumes/psono-data/config.json:/app/psono_server/config/common.config.json psono/psono-server:latest
    

    This command starts the Psono Docker container and maps port 8000 of the Psono container to port 8000 of the Docker host.

  2. Make sure the container is running by running the following command:

    sudo docker ps
    

    This command lists all running Docker containers, and you should see psono listed in the output.

  3. Finally, access the Psono web interface by opening a web browser and visiting http://<your_server_ip>:8000.

    Replace <your_server_ip> with the IP address of your Fedora CoreOS system.

    You should now see the Psono login page. You can create a new user or log in using the default admin account:

    • Username: admin
    • Password: admin

    Be sure to change the default admin password after logging in for the first time.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Psono on Fedora CoreOS Latest.

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!
