myTinyTodo is a simple and lightweight web-based task manager that allows you to manage your to-do lists easily. In this guide, you will learn how to install myTinyTodo on Linux Mint Latest.
Before installing myTinyTodo, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
The first step in installing myTinyTodo is to download the latest version of myTinyTodo from the official website. You can download it using the wget command:
sudo wget https://github.com/maxpozdeev/mytinytodo/archive/master.zip
Once the download is complete, extract the zip file using the unzip command:
sudo unzip master.zip
The next step is to create a database for myTinyTodo. Log in to your MySQL server and create a new database:
mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE mytinytododb;
Create a new MySQL user and grant all privileges to the new database:
CREATE USER 'mytinytodouser'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'your_password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mytinytododb.* TO 'mytinytodouser'@'localhost';
Configure the Apache virtual host configuration file by creating a new file /etc/apache2/sites-available/mytinytodo.conf:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/mytinytodo.conf
Add the following content to the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin your_email@example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/mytinytodo-master
ServerName your_domain.com
ServerAlias www.your_domain.com
<Directory /var/www/html/mytinytodo-master>
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/mytinytodo_error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/mytinytodo_access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Save and close the file.
Enable the virtual host and restart Apache:
sudo a2ensite mytinytodo.conf
sudo systemctl restart apache2
Copy the sample configuration file and rename it to config.php:
sudo cp /var/www/html/mytinytodo-master/includes/config-sample.php /var/www/html/mytinytodo-master/includes/config.php
Edit the config.php file and update the database settings:
sudo nano /var/www/html/mytinytodo-master/includes/config.php
Locate the following lines and change the database settings as follows:
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_USER', 'mytinytodouser');
define('DB_PASS', 'your_password');
define('DB_NAME', 'mytinytododb');
Save and close the file.
Now that the installation and configuration are complete, you can access myTinyTodo by navigating to http://your_domain.com or http://your_server_IP_address in your web browser.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install myTinyTodo on Linux Mint Latest. With myTinyTodo, you can now manage your to-do lists easily and efficiently.
