EveryDocs is a document management application that allows you to upload, organize, and share your documents securely. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install EveryDocs on Fedora Server.
Before we install EveryDocs, you need to make sure that your Fedora Server is up to date and that you have installed the following packages:
git
nodejs
npm
mongodb-server
You can install these packages using the following command:
sudo dnf install git nodejs npm mongodb-server
First, you need to clone the EveryDocs repository from Github by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/jonashellmann/everydocs-core.git
This will create a directory named everydocs-core
in your current working directory.
Navigate to the EveryDocs directory using the following command:
cd everydocs-core
Then, install the required dependencies by running the following command:
npm install
Before starting EveryDocs, you need to set some environment variables. Create a new file named .env
in the EveryDocs directory using the following command:
touch .env
Then, add the following configuration to the .env
file:
DB_HOST=localhost:27017
DB_NAME=everydocs
SESSION_SECRET=your-secret
PORT=3000
You can change the values according to your preferences. Also, make sure that the DB_HOST
is configured to the correct MongoDB server address and port.
Now we can start EveryDocs by running the following command:
npm start
This will start the EveryDocs server on port 3000.
Open your web browser and navigate to http://<server-ip>:3000
. You will be redirected to the login page.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and started EveryDocs on Fedora Server. You can now start uploading, organizing, and sharing your documents with your team securely.
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!
