Klaus is a popular web-based git viewer that allows you to explore your git repositories via a web interface. It's easy to set up and use, and provides a simple way to visualize your git history.
In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of installing Klaus on your Manjaro Linux system.
Before we get started, ensure that you have installed the following packages on your system:
First, navigate to the directory where you want to install Klaus. Then, clone the Klaus repository from GitHub:
$ git clone https://github.com/jonashaag/klaus.git
This will create a new folder called klaus in your current working directory.
Next, navigate into the klaus directory and install the required dependencies using pip:
$ cd klaus
$ sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Once the dependencies are installed, you can now run Klaus on your system. Execute the following command to start Klaus:
$ python3 -m klaus --port=8080 --host=localhost /path/to/git/repo
This command will start Klaus on port 8080 and bind it to the localhost interface. Replace /path/to/git/repo with the path to the git repository that you want to view using Klaus.
Now that Klaus is up and running, you can access it by opening a web browser and entering the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/
This will display the Klaus interface, and you can use it to explore your git repository.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Klaus on your Manjaro Linux system. Now, you can easily view your git repositories using the web-based Klaus interface.
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!
