ZITADEL is an open-source identity and access management (IAM) solution developed by CAOS AG. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing ZITADEL on Fedora CoreOS.
Before you start, you need to make sure that you have the following:
First, you need to download the ZITADEL release from GitHub. To do that, open a terminal and run the following command:
$ curl -sLO https://github.com/caos/zitadel/releases/latest/download/zitadel-linux-amd64.tar.gz
This will download the latest release of ZITADEL in a compressed file format zitadel-linux-amd64.tar.gz.
Next, you need to extract the ZITADEL release. To do that, run the following command:
$ sudo tar -xf zitadel-linux-amd64.tar.gz -C /usr/local/bin/
This will extract the ZITADEL release and place the binary files in /usr/local/bin/ directory.
Now, you need to create a systemd service file that will start ZITADEL on boot. To do that, open a text editor and create a new file /etc/systemd/system/zitadel.service with the following content:
[Unit]
Description=ZITADEL
After=network.target
[Service]
User=root
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/zitadel
Restart=always
RestartSec=10s
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
This service will start the ZITADEL server as a root user on boot and restart it automatically in case of any errors or crashes.
Finally, you need to enable and start the ZITADEL systemd service. To do that, run the following commands:
$ sudo systemctl enable zitadel.service
$ sudo systemctl start zitadel.service
This will enable the service to start on boot and start the service immediately.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed ZITADEL on Fedora CoreOS. You can now use ZITADEL to manage your organization's identity and access management needs.
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!
