Installing Newsdash on Fedora CoreOS Latest

Newsdash is a web-based RSS/Atom feed aggregator that allows you to quickly and easily browse news articles from various sources. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Newsdash on Fedora CoreOS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following:

Step 1: Install Docker

Newsdash is a Docker application, so you need to have Docker installed on your system. To install it, follow these steps:

  1. Open a terminal window on your Fedora CoreOS Latest system.

  2. Run the following command to install the dnf-plugins-core package:

    sudo dnf install -y dnf-plugins-core
    
  3. Next, add the Docker CE repository:

    sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo=https://download.docker.com/linux/fedora/docker-ce.repo
    
  4. After adding the repository, install Docker CE:

    sudo dnf install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
    
  5. Once installed, start and enable the Docker service:

    sudo systemctl start docker
    sudo systemctl enable docker
    

You now have Docker installed on your system.

Step 2: Download Newsdash

  1. Open a terminal window on your Fedora CoreOS Latest system.

  2. Run the following command to download Newsdash:

    sudo docker pull buzztaiki/newsdash:latest
    

The above command downloads the latest version of Newsdash from Docker Hub.

Step 3: Create a Docker Volume

To store Newsdash data in Docker, we will create a Docker volume. Follow these steps:

  1. Open a terminal window on your Fedora CoreOS Latest system.

  2. Run the following command to create the Docker volume:

    sudo docker volume create newsdash-data
    

With this command, the newsdash-data volume is created and ready for use.

Step 4: Launch Newsdash

  1. Open a terminal window and run the following command to launch Newsdash:

    sudo docker run -d --restart=always -p 80:4000 -v newsdash-data:/root/.newsdash buzztaiki/newsdash:latest
    

    This command launches Newsdash in a Docker container with the following options:

    • -d: Starts the container in detached mode.
    • --restart=always: Configures the container to restart automatically if it stops for any reason.
    • -p 80:4000: Maps the Docker container's port 4000 to the system's port 80, which allows you to access Newsdash through your web browser.
    • -v newsdash-data:/root/.newsdash: Mounts the newsdash-data Docker volume into the container, which is the directory where Newsdash stores its data.
    • buzztaiki/newsdash:latest: Specifies the Newsdash Docker image and version to launch.
  2. Once Newsdash is launched, you can access it in your web browser by visiting http://<your-server-ip>:80/.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed and launched Newsdash on your Fedora CoreOS Latest system.
