How to Install Pastefy on Fedora Server

Step 1: Update the System

Before we begin installing the Pastefy on Fedora Server, we need to ensure that the system is updated to the latest version. Open the terminal and run the following command to update your server:

sudo dnf update

Step 2: Install Required Dependencies

Pastefy requires some dependencies to be present on the system before installation. We need to install the following dependencies:

• git: A command-line tool for version control system
• npm: A package manager for the Node.js environment

Use the following command to install these dependencies on your Fedora Server:

sudo dnf install git npm -y

Step 3: Clone the Pastefy Repository

Now, we will need to clone the Pastefy repository from Github. Use the following command to clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/fosspowered/pastefy.git

Step 4: Install Node.js and npm

We need Node.js and npm for the Pastefy installation. If you have not installed Node.js and npm, run the following command to install them:

sudo dnf install nodejs

Step 5: Install Other Required Dependencies

Pastefy needs some additional dependencies to be installed. We can install them by running the following command:

cd pastefy
npm i

Step 6: Run Pastefy

With all the dependencies installed, we can now start the Pastefy server:

npm start

Now, open your web browser and type http://localhost:3000 to access the Pastefy application.
