Before we begin with the installation of NocoDB on Kali Linux, you need to make sure that you have the following requirements:
First, we need to download the latest version of NocoDB. You can do this by visiting the NocoDB website at https://www.nocodb.com/ and click on the "Download" button. Alternatively, you can go directly to the download page at https://www.nocodb.com/download.
After downloading the archive, we need to extract it to a specific directory. Open a terminal window and navigate to the directory where you saved the downloaded archive.
Then, use the following command to extract the archive:
tar -zxf nocodb-[VERSION].tar.gz
Replace [VERSION] with the version number of the downloaded archive.
Now that we have extracted the archive, we need to build a Docker image of the NocoDB application. Navigate to the extracted directory and use the following command:
docker build -t nocodb:latest .
This command will create a new Docker image with the name 'nocodb' and the tag 'latest'. The dot at the end represents the current directory, which is where Docker will look for the Dockerfile that's needed to build the image.
After building the Docker image, you can start a new container with the following command:
docker run -d -p 8080:8080 --name nocodb nocodb:latest
This command will start a new container with the name 'nocodb' using the image we built in the previous step. The '-d' option tells Docker to run the container in detached mode (in the background), '-p' maps the container's port 8080 to your host machine's port 8080, and the '--name' option gives the container a name for easy reference.
You should now be able to access the NocoDB application by visiting http://localhost:8080 in your web browser.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed NocoDB on Kali Linux using Docker! You can now use NocoDB to create a database-driven web application without writing any code. If you encounter any issues during the installation, please consult the NocoDB documentation or their support forum.
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!
