Raneto is a Markdown-powered knowledgebase platform that allows you to create an easily accessible and searchable library of documentation. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Raneto on FreeBSD Latest.
Before you start the installation process, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to install Node.js and Git. Raneto is built with Node.js, and Git is required to download the Raneto files.
To install Node.js and Git, run the following command:
pkg install node git
Next, clone the Raneto repository to your server using Git. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/gilbitron/Raneto.git
This will clone the Raneto repository to a directory named "Raneto" in your current working directory.
Now that you have the Raneto files on your server, it's time to install it. This is done using the Node Package Manager (npm).
To install Raneto, navigate to the Raneto directory and run the following command:
npm install --production
This will install all the necessary dependencies for Raneto.
After the installation is complete, you need to configure Raneto. This is done by creating a configuration file and specifying the necessary settings.
To create the configuration file, navigate to the Raneto directory and copy the example configuration file using the following command:
cp config.example.js config.js
Next, open the config.js file using a text editor and modify the necessary settings. For example, you can change the title of your knowledgebase and set the port number.
The final step is to start Raneto. This is done using the following command:
npm start
This will start Raneto and make it accessible over the specified port number.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Raneto on FreeBSD Latest. You can now start organizing your documentation and creating a knowledgebase that is easily accessible and searchable.
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!
