How to Install Claper on Fedora Server Latest

Claper is a free and open-source collaboration tool that allows users to easily share and organize content. It is a useful tool for teams that need to collaborate on projects, share ideas, or organize their work. Here's how to install Claper on Fedora Server Latest.

Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

Step 1: Update the System

First, update the system using the following command:

sudo dnf update

Step 2: Install NodeJS

Claper is built using NodeJS, so you need to install NodeJS first. Fedora Server Latest doesn't have a pre-packaged version of NodeJS, so we need to add the NodeJS repository using the following command:

sudo dnf module enable nodejs:14
sudo dnf install nodejs

Step 3: Install MongoDB

Claper uses MongoDB as its database, so you need to install MongoDB as well. Use the following command to add the MongoDB repository and install the package:

sudo dnf install mongodb-server
sudo systemctl start mongod
sudo systemctl enable mongod

Step 4: Install Claper

Now it's time to install Claper. First, clone the Claper repository from Github using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/ClaperCo/claper.git

Navigate to the Claper directory and install the dependencies using the following commands:

cd claper
npm install

Step 5: Configure Claper

Claper comes with a sample configuration file called config.sample.js. You need to copy this file to config.js and edit it accordingly.

cp config.sample.js config.js
nano config.js

Update the following section with your own settings:

module.exports = {
    mongodb: {
        uri: 'mongodb://localhost:27017/claper'
    },
    server: {
        port: 8080 // choose a port number that's not already in use
    },
    jwt: {
        secret: 'your own secret key'
    }
};

Save and exit the file.

Step 6: Start Claper

You can now start Claper using the following command:

npm start

Claper should now be up and running on port 8080 (or the port number you specified in the config.js file).
