Web-Portal is a web-based portal that can be used for managing and monitoring various aspects of a web application. In this tutorial, we will explain how to install Web-Portal on your Fedora Server Latest.
Before installing Web-Portal, you need to install some of the prerequisite packages. You can do this by running the following command in the terminal:
sudo dnf install -y git python3-pip python3-devel postgresql-server postgresql-devel
Next, you need to clone the Web-Portal git repository to your server using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/enchant97/web-portal.git
Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the web-portal directory using the following command:
cd web-portal
After cloning the repository, you need to install the required python modules. You can install these modules using the following command:
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
To configure the PostgreSQL database for Web-Portal, you need to create a new database user and database. You can do this by running the following command:
sudo su postgres
psql
CREATE USER webportaluser WITH PASSWORD 'password';
CREATE DATABASE webportal;
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE webportal TO webportaluser;
\q
exit
After installing the required packages, cloning the repository, and configuring the database, it's time to configure the settings. You can do this by running the following command:
cp webportal/settings/local.py.example webportal/settings/local.py
nano webportal/settings/local.py
In the configuration file, update the following settings:
ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['your_domain']
DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql',
'NAME': 'webportal',
'USER': 'webportaluser',
'PASSWORD': 'password',
'HOST': 'localhost',
'PORT': '',
}
}
Once you have updated the settings, save and close the file.
Before running the server, you need to run the database migration by running the following command:
python3 manage.py migrate
Finally, you are ready to run the development server. You can do this by running the following command:
python3 manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
The development server is now running on port 8000, and you can access it using your web browser by visiting http://your_server_ip:8000.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Web-Portal 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!
