StockazNG is an open-source inventory management system that can be installed on FreeBSD Latest with these simple steps:
Before installing StockazNG, we need to install its dependencies. Execute the following commands as root to install required packages:
pkg update
pkg install git mariadb103-client mariadb103-server php73 php73-mysqli php73-xml php73-mbstring php73-gd php73-curl php73-opcache
Now, we are going to download the latest version of StockazNG from its official Git repository. Execute the following command as root to download it:
git clone https://dev.sigpipe.me/dashie/StockazNG.git
This will create a new directory called "StockazNG" in the current directory.
We need to create a database and set up a database user for StockazNG to store its data. Execute the following commands as root to accomplish this task:
mysql -u root -p
Enter your MySQL root password when prompted. Once connected to the MySQL server, execute the following commands to create the database and user:
CREATE DATABASE stockazng;
CREATE USER 'stockazng'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'mysecretpassword';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON stockazng.* TO 'stockazng'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
We need to create a new virtual host in Apache to serve StockazNG. Execute the following command as root to create a new Apache configuration file:
nano /usr/local/etc/apache24/Includes/stockazng.conf
Add the following content to the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
DocumentRoot /path/to/StockazNG/
<Directory /path/to/StockazNG/>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Replace "/path/to/StockazNG/" with the full path of the "StockazNG" directory that we downloaded earlier. Save and exit the file.
Next, we need to enable the Apache rewrite module that's required by StockazNG. Execute the following command as root to enable this module:
sed -i '' -e 's/#LoadModule rewrite_module/LoadModule rewrite_module/g' /usr/local/etc/apache24/httpd.conf
We need to configure StockazNG to use our previously created database. Execute the following command as root to open the StockazNG configuration file:
nano /path/to/StockazNG/app/Config/Database.php
Update the following lines in the file:
'Datasource' => 'Database/Mysql',
'host' => 'localhost',
'port' => '',
'login' => 'stockazng',
'password' => 'mysecretpassword',
'database' => 'stockazng',
Replace "mysecretpassword" with the password that we set for the "stockazng" database user.
Now, we are ready to install StockazNG. Execute the following command inside the "StockazNG" directory:
sh install.sh
This script will check for necessary dependencies, create necessary directories, configure database schema, and set necessary permissions.
After StockazNG installation is complete, we can access it via a web browser. Open your web browser and navigate to "http://localhost/" to access the StockazNG web interface.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed StockazNG on FreeBSD Latest.
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!
