ITFlow is a self-hosted workflow management software that allows users to schedule automated workflows and track their progress. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install ITFlow on Fedora Server Latest.
Before installing ITFlow, you need to install some dependencies. Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo dnf install -y nodejs npm postgresql-server
This will install Node.js, npm, and PostgreSQL server on your system.
After installing the dependencies, you can now install ITFlow using the following commands:
sudo npm install -g itflow
This will install ITFlow globally on your system.
After installing ITFlow, you need to configure PostgreSQL. Run the following commands to create a new PostgreSQL user and database for ITFlow:
sudo -u postgres psql
CREATE USER itflow WITH PASSWORD 'password';
CREATE DATABASE itflow OWNER itflow;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE itflow TO itflow;
Exit the PostgreSQL prompt by typing:
\q
Now you need to configure ITFlow by exporting some environment variables in your terminal. Run the following command to set the environment variables:
export ITFLOW_DB_URL=postgres://itflow:password@localhost:5432/itflow
export ITFLOW_SESSION_SECRET=somesessionsecret
Make sure to replace password and somesessionsecret with passwords of your choice.
After configuring ITFlow, you can now start it up by running the following command in your terminal:
itflow
ITFlow will start running on port 3000. You can access it by opening a web browser and going to http://localhost:3000.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured ITFlow on your Fedora Server 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!
