Typebot is a powerful chatbot platform that allows you to design and create chatbots for your business or personal use. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Typebot on your Fedora Server Latest instance.
Before installing Typebot, we need to make sure that all the necessary dependencies are installed on our system. Open a terminal window and run the following command:
sudo dnf install nodejs npm git
This will install Node.js, npm, and Git on your system. Once the installation is complete, you can check whether Node.js and npm are installed by running the following commands:
node -v
npm -v
If both commands return version numbers, then you're good to go.
Next, we need to clone the Typebot repository from Github. To do this, run the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/typebotio/typebot.git
This will create a local copy of the Typebot repository on your system.
Navigate to the typebot
directory that was created when you cloned the repository. Then, run the following command to install Typebot's dependencies:
npm install
This will install all the required packages for Typebot to run.
Now, you need to create a configuration file for Typebot. In the root directory of the typebot
repository, create a file named .env
:
touch .env
Then, open the file with your text editor of choice and add the following lines:
NODE_ENV=development
PORT=3000
The NODE_ENV
variable specifies the environment we're running Typebot in (in this case, development). The PORT
variable specifies the port Typebot will listen on (in this case, 3000).
Once you've configured Typebot, you can start it up. Run the following command in the root directory of the typebot
repository:
npm run dev
This will start Typebot in development mode. Once it's up and running, you can open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000
to see the Typebot homepage.
Congratulations! You've successfully installed Typebot on your Fedora Server Latest instance. You can now start building your own chatbots and exploring all the great features that Typebot has to offer.
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!
