Ghostfolio is a cryptocurrency portfolio tracking tool. In this tutorial, we'll walk through the steps of installing Ghostfolio on a Manjaro system.
Before proceeding with the installation, make sure your system meets the following requirements:
First, we need to install the required dependencies. Open the terminal and execute the following command:
sudo pacman -S sqlite3 libgcrypt mariadb-libs
This command installs three packages: sqlite3, libgcrypt, and mariadb-libs. These packages are required to run Ghostfolio.
Next, navigate to the official Ghostfolio website at https://ghostfol.io/ and download the latest version of the software. Extract the downloaded file to a directory of your choice.
First, navigate to the extracted directory:
cd /path/to/ghostfolio
Then, start the Ghostfolio server by executing:
./ghostfolio
This will start the server and display the server port number in the terminal. By default, Ghostfolio listens on port 8080. You can access the web interface by opening your browser and navigating to http://localhost:8080.
Once you've accessed the web interface, you can begin setting up your account, adding cryptocurrencies, and configuring the application to suit your needs. Note that Ghostfolio allows you to import data from a number of popular exchanges and wallets.
In this tutorial, we walked through the process of installing Ghostfolio on Manjaro. We also briefly covered the basics of setting up and using the software to track a cryptocurrency portfolio. With Ghostfolio, you can easily keep track of your investments and monitor your cryptocurrency holdings with ease.
