How to Install Vaults on a Fedora Server

Vaults is a password management solution developed by MatrixEternal. This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install and set up Vaults on a Fedora server.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:

• A Fedora server with the latest updates installed
• A user account with sudo privileges
• Access to a terminal or command prompt

Step 1: Install Required Dependencies

Vaults requires several dependencies to be installed on your system before it can run properly. In this step, we will install these dependencies using the dnf package manager.

To begin, open a terminal or command prompt and update your package manager with the following command:

sudo dnf update

Next, install the required dependencies with the following command:

sudo dnf install python3 python3-pip npm git libffi-devel python3-devel openssl-devel

Step 2: Download and Install Vaults

Next, we will download and install Vaults from the official GitHub repository.

First, clone the repository to your local machine with the following command:

git clone https://github.com/MatrixEternal/vaults

Once the repository has been cloned successfully, navigate to the newly created vaults directory with the following command:

cd vaults

Then, use pip to install the required Python packages:

sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Finally, use npm to install the required Node.js packages:

sudo npm install

Step 3: Configure Vaults

Before we can use Vaults, we must first configure it to match our desired settings.

First, copy the default configuration file:

cp config.example.py config.py

Then, edit the config.py file to match your desired settings using your preferred text editor. Make sure to read the documentation to fully understand the available configuration options.

Step 4: Start Vaults

Now that we have everything installed and our configuration is set up, we can start Vaults with the following command:

sudo npm start

Vaults should now be up and running on your Fedora server.
