Schleuder is an email list manager that helps groups of people communicate with each other in a secure manner. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Schleuder on your Fedora CoreOS system.
Schleuder requires several dependencies to be installed on the system. Run the following command to install them:
sudo dnf install -y ruby ruby-devel rubygems postgresql-devel openssl-devel
sudo gem install schleuder
sudo schleuder create_config
Configure Schleuder by editing the configuration file at /etc/schleuder/schleuder.yaml. See the official Schleuder documentation for details.
Initialize the Schleuder database by running the following command:
sudo su postgres
psql
CREATE USER schleuder WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'password';
CREATE DATABASE schleuder OWNER schleuder;
\q
exit
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/schleuder
sudo chown -R schleuder:schleuder /var/lib/schleuder
sudo systemctl start schleuder
If everything runs smoothly, you should see a message that the Schleuder service has started.
sudo systemctl enable schleuder
To check if Schleuder is installed correctly, run the following command:
sudo schleuder version
This should give you the version of the Schleuder installation. If you encounter any errors or have any questions, refer to the official Schleuder documentation or ask for help on the Schleuder mailing list.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to install Schleuder on Fedora CoreOS. You can now start creating email lists and managing communications for your group in a secure and private manner.
