Genesis is a tool that simplifies the process of deploying and managing applications on cloud platforms. It is an open-source project available on GitHub. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Genesis on FreeBSD Latest.
Before you start with the installation process, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
Genesis is available on GitHub, and to install it, you need to have Git installed on your system. If not already installed, you can install Git using the following commands:
$ pkg install git
Once you have Git installed, you can clone the Genesis repository from GitHub using the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/starkandwayne/genesis.git
This command will download the latest version of the Genesis repository to your system.
Genesis requires some dependencies to run. Before you can run it, you need to install these dependencies using the following command:
$ pkg install bash ruby rubygem-bundler
This command will install bash, Ruby, and Bundler.
After installing the dependencies, you can build the Genesis binary using the following command:
$ cd genesis
$ bundle install
$ bundle exec rake
This command will build Genesis for you.
To use Genesis, you need to add it to your system's PATH environment variable. You can do this by adding the following line to your .bashrc file:
export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/genesis
Make sure to replace /path/to/genesis with the actual path to the Genesis binary.
To test if Genesis is installed correctly, run the following command:
$ genesis --version
If installed correctly, this command should return the version of Genesis installed on your system.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Genesis on FreeBSD Latest! You can now use Genesis to deploy and manage your applications on cloud platforms.
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!
