How to Install Linkding on Fedora CoreOS Latest?

Linkding is an open-source bookmark manager that can be self-hosted. It is built using Django and Bootstrap, and it allows users to save and organize bookmarks easily. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install Linkding on Fedora CoreOS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we start, make sure that you have the following:

Steps

  1. Update the system.

    sudo rpm-ostree update
    
  2. Install Git and required dependencies.

    sudo dnf install git gcc make redhat-rpm-config python3-devel
    
  3. Clone the Linkding repository.

    git clone https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding.git
    
  4. Change to the cloned directory.

    cd linkding
    
  5. Install Python dependencies.

    pip3 install -r requirements.txt
    
  6. Initialize the database.

    python3 manage.py migrate
    
  7. Create a superuser.

    python3 manage.py createsuperuser
    

    Follow the prompts to enter a username, email, and password for the superuser. Remember these details as you will need them to log in to the Linkding admin interface later.

  8. Collect static files.

    python3 manage.py collectstatic
    
  9. Start the server.

    python3 manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
    
  10. Open a web browser and navigate to http://[server_address]:8000/admin/.

    Replace [server_address] with the IP address or domain name of your server. You should see the Linkding admin login page.

  11. Log in with the superuser credentials you created earlier.

    After logging in, you will be directed to the Linkding dashboard. From here, you can add bookmarks, organize them into categories, and manage your account settings.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Linkding 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!
