eLabFTW is an open-source electronic laboratory notebook that allows users to organize and document their research processes. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install eLabFTW on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
Before we begin, you must have:
Log in to your Fedora CoreOS instance as the root user.
Install the Docker containerization platform using the command:
sudo dnf install docker
Start the Docker service using the command:
sudo systemctl start docker
Download the eLabFTW Docker container image using the command:
sudo docker pull elabftw/elabftw
Create a Docker container instance by running the following command:
sudo docker run -d -p 80:80 -p 443:443 elabftw/elabftw
This command will create a Docker container and map the host ports 80 and 443 to the container ports 80 and 443, respectively.
Note: You can customize the eLabFTW installation by providing additional parameters to the Docker run command. Refer to the official eLabFTW documentation for more information.
Finally, access eLabFTW by entering the IP address of your Fedora CoreOS instance in a web browser.
https://[Your_Fedora_CoreOS_IP_Address]:443
By default, the eLabFTW login page will be displayed, and you can log in with the default credentials:
Username: admin
Password: admin
After logging in, you will be able to access eLabFTW and start organizing your research processes.
In this tutorial, we have successfully installed eLabFTW on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you should now have a functioning eLabFTW installation accessible via your web browser.
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!
