Homer is a powerful application for monitoring your infrastructure using Grafana, Prometheus, and Loki. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Homer on Manjaro.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
Git is a version control system that is needed to download the Homer source code from Github. If Git is not installed on your system, you can install it by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S git
After installing Git, you need to clone the Homer repository to your machine. To do this, navigate to the directory where you want to install Homer and run the following Git command:
git clone https://github.com/bastienwirtz/homer.git
This will download the Homer code to your machine.
Homer runs on Docker containers, so you need to install Docker and Docker-compose to run it. If you do not have Docker and Docker-compose installed on your system, run the following commands:
sudo pacman -S docker docker-compose
Now, navigate into the Homer folder which was cloned in Step 2 and run the following Docker-compose command to start Homer:
cd homer
sudo docker-compose up -d
Homer should now be running on your machine. You can access it by visiting http://localhost in your web browser.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install Homer on Manjaro. Homer is a powerful monitoring tool that can help you keep track of your infrastructure using Grafana, Prometheus, and Loki. With these steps, you can easily set up and start using Homer for your needs.
