Databunker is a GDPR compliant personal information management tool that allows you to store sensitive personal data securely. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Databunker on FreeBSD Latest.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
First, log in to your FreeBSD system and update the system packages by running the following command:
sudo pkg update && sudo pkg upgrade -y
This command updates the package repository and upgrades the system packages to their latest versions.
Databunker uses PostgreSQL as its backend database. To install PostgreSQL, run the following command:
sudo pkg install postgresql13-server
This command installs the PostgreSQL server and its required dependencies.
After installing PostgreSQL, we need to initialize the database by running the following command:
sudo service postgresql initdb
This command creates the necessary directories and files for PostgreSQL.
To start the PostgreSQL server, run the following command:
sudo service postgresql start
This command starts the PostgreSQL server and enables it to start automatically at boot time.
Next, we need to create a user and database for Databunker. To do this, log in to the PostgreSQL server as the root user by running the following command:
sudo -u postgres psql
Once you have logged in, create a new user and database by running the following SQL commands:
CREATE USER databunker_user WITH PASSWORD 'your_password';
CREATE DATABASE databunker_db OWNER databunker_user;
This creates a new user called databunker_user
with the password your_password
, and a new database called databunker_db
with databunker_user
as its owner.
Exit from the PostgreSQL console by running the following command:
\q
To install Databunker, run the following command:
sudo pkg install databunker
This command installs the Databunker package and its dependencies.
After installing Databunker, we need to configure it to use the PostgreSQL database that we created earlier. To do this, edit the databunker.conf
file using your preferred text editor:
sudo nano /usr/local/etc/databunker.conf
In the [postgresql]
section of the file, replace the default values with the user, password, and database name that we created earlier:
[postgresql]
host = localhost
port = 5432
user = databunker_user
password = your_password
dbname = databunker_db
sslmode = disable
Save the changes and exit the text editor.
Now that we have configured Databunker, start the Databunker service by running the following command:
sudo service databunker start
This command starts the Databunker service and enables it to start automatically at boot time.
Databunker is now installed and running on your FreeBSD system. You can access Databunker by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000/
.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Databunker on FreeBSD Latest. With Databunker, you can securely store and manage sensitive personal data while maintaining GDPR compliance.
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!
