How to Install KeystoneJS on Fedora Server

In this tutorial, we will walk through the steps to install KeystoneJS on a Fedora Server running the latest software.

Prerequisites

Before we proceed, we need to make sure that our server meets the following requirements:

• A server running Fedora (we will assume it is the latest version)
• Node.js with a version higher than 8.x.x
• npm (Node.js package manager)

Step 1: Install Node.js

If you have not already installed Node.js on your server, we will do that now. Run the following command to install Node.js:

sudo dnf install nodejs

After Node.js is installed, verify its version by running this command:

node -v

This should output the current version of Node.js.

Step 2: Install KeystoneJS

Now that Node.js is installed, we can proceed with installing KeystoneJS. Run the following command to install KeystoneJS using npm:

sudo npm install -g generator-keystone

After KeystoneJS is installed, you can generate a new KeystoneJS project by running the following command:

yo keystone

This will prompt you to select a project template to use for your new KeystoneJS project. Once you have selected a project template, KeystoneJS will install all the required dependencies for your project.

Step 3: Run your KeystoneJS project

Once your KeystoneJS project is generated, you can start your project by running the following command:

node keystone.js

This will start your KeystoneJS project, and you can access it by navigating to http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we have walked through the steps to install KeystoneJS on a Fedora Server. By following these steps, you should now have KeystoneJS installed on your server and have a new KeystoneJS project generated. You can use this project as a starting point for your own KeystoneJS project.
