How to Install Memos on Fedora Server Latest

In this tutorial, we will walk through the steps to install Memos on your Fedora Server Latest. Memos is an open-source note-taking application that allows you to create, edit, and organize your notes efficiently.

Prerequisites

• A working installation of Fedora Server Latest
• A user account with sudo privileges

Step 1: Install Dependencies

Before we install Memos, we need to ensure that our system has all the necessary dependencies installed. Run the following command to install them:

sudo dnf install git postgresql postgresql-server nodejs

Step 2: Install and Configure PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL is the database that Memos uses to store data. We will install and configure it in this step.

First, initialize your PostgreSQL database:

sudo postgresql-setup initdb

Then start and enable PostgreSQL:

sudo systemctl start postgresql
sudo systemctl enable postgresql

Next, create a new PostgreSQL user and database for Memos:

sudo -u postgres createuser memos
sudo -u postgres createdb memos

Finally, set a secure password for the Memos user:

sudo -u postgres psql
postgres=# ALTER USER memos PASSWORD 'your_password';
postgres=# \q

Step 3: Clone Memos GitHub Repository

Now that we have all the dependencies installed and the database set up, we can clone Memos from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/usememos/memos.git

Step 4: Install and Configure Memos

We will install Memos and configure it in this step.

First, navigate to the Memos directory:

cd memos

Then install the required Node.js packages:

npm install

Next, set up the Memos environment variables:

cp .env.example .env

Open the .env file in your preferred text editor and modify the following variables:

• DATABASE_HOST: Set this to localhost since we are running the PostgreSQL database on the same machine.
• DATABASE_NAME: Set this to memos or the name of the database you created earlier.
• DATABASE_USERNAME: Set this to memos or the name of the database user you created earlier.
• DATABASE_PASSWORD: Set this to the password you set for the database user.

Step 5: Start Memos

We can finally start Memos now that it is installed and configured. Run the following command to start Memos:

npm start

You should now be able to access Memos by navigating to http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Memos on your Fedora Server Latest. You can now create, edit, and organize notes in Memos.
