KeystoneJS is a content management system and web application platform based on Node.js. It provides a simple and efficient way to create dynamic websites and applications. This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install KeystoneJS on Manjaro.
Before proceeding with the installation of KeystoneJS, you need to ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step in installing KeystoneJS is to install MongoDB. MongoDB is a NoSQL database that KeystoneJS uses to store data. To install MongoDB on Manjaro, execute the following command in your terminal:
sudo pacman -S mongodb
After the installation is complete, start the MongoDB service with the following command:
sudo systemctl start mongodb
You can check if the service is running by executing the following command:
sudo systemctl status mongodb
Once MongoDB is installed and running, you can proceed with the installation of KeystoneJS. To install KeystoneJS, execute the following command in your terminal:
npm install -g generator-keystone
This command will install the KeystoneJS generator globally on your system.
After the KeystoneJS generator is installed, you can use it to create a new KeystoneJS project. To create a new project, execute the following command:
yo keystone
This command will start the KeystoneJS generator and prompt you for the details of your new project. Follow the prompts to configure your project settings.
Once your project is configured, you can start the KeystoneJS server by executing the following command:
npm start
This command will start the KeystoneJS server and you should see the output "KeystoneJS is running on http://localhost:3000" in your terminal.
You can now access your KeystoneJS project by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000. This will take you to the homepage of your KeystoneJS project.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install KeystoneJS on Manjaro. You also learned how to create a new KeystoneJS project and start the KeystoneJS server. With KeystoneJS, you can create dynamic websites and applications with ease.
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!
