In this tutorial, we will explain how to install Hitobito on Fedora CoreOS latest.
Before we proceed with the installation, make sure your system has the necessary dependencies installed.
To do so, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo dnf install -y git ansible
Now, we need to clone the Hitobito git repository.
To do so, run the following command in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/hitobito/hitobito.git
After cloning the repository, we need to configure the Hitobito playbook.
To do so, navigate to the hitobito directory where the repository was cloned and find the file named inventory.example.
Copy this file to a new file named inventory at the same location:
cp inventory.example inventory
Next, edit the inventory file and specify the target machine where Hitobito will be installed, by updating the IP address.
[hitobito]
<ip-address-of-target-machine>
Save and exit the inventory file when done.
Finally, we can run the Hitobito playbook on the target machine.
To do so, run the following command in the terminal, while in the directory where Hitobito repository is cloned:
ansible-playbook -i inventory playbook.yml
This will initiate the installation process of Hitobito on the target machine.
Once the process is complete, you should be able to access Hitobito by navigating to http://<ip-address-of-target-machine>:3000.
In this tutorial, we explained how to install Hitobito on Fedora CoreOS latest, by cloning the Hitobito git repository, configuring the playbook using the inventory file, and running the playbook using Ansible.
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!
