In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install SimpleLogin on your FreeBSD latest version.
Make sure you have the following prerequisites before proceeding with the installation:
Before we can install SimpleLogin, we need to install some dependencies. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo pkg install -y git node npm yarn
This command will install the necessary dependencies to download and run SimpleLogin on your FreeBSD system.
Now that we have installed the necessary dependencies, we can proceed to download and install SimpleLogin. To do this, we first need to clone the SimpleLogin repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/simple-login/app.git
This command will clone the SimpleLogin repository to your current directory.
Once we have the SimpleLogin repository on our system, we can now install SimpleLogin. Navigate to the cloned repository using the following command:
cd app
Then, run the following command to install SimpleLogin:
yarn install
This command will install all the necessary dependencies for SimpleLogin.
After installing SimpleLogin, we need to configure the application. SimpleLogin uses environment variables to configure the application. There are two configuration files, .env and .env.local. The .env file contains the default configuration, while the .env.local file contains local configuration that overrides the default configuration.
In this tutorial, we will create the .env.local file and add the necessary configuration to it. Run the following command to create the file:
cp .env .env.local
Then, open the file in your favorite text editor and add the following configuration:
VUE_APP_API_BASE_URL=https://app.simplelogin.io/api
This configuration tells SimpleLogin to use the official SimpleLogin API for communication.
Now that we have installed and configured SimpleLogin, we can start the application. Run the following command to start SimpleLogin:
yarn serve
This command will start the application and serve it on http://localhost:8080/. You can now visit the URL in your web browser to start using SimpleLogin.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install SimpleLogin on your FreeBSD latest version. We hope that this tutorial has been helpful to you and that you are now able to use SimpleLogin on your FreeBSD system.
