PassWall is an open-source password manager that allows you to store and manage your passwords securely. It provides an intuitive interface for managing passwords and encrypts them using strong encryption algorithms. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install PassWall on Manjaro.
Before you start, you need to make sure that your system meets the following requirements:
The first thing you need to do is to install Git on your system. Git is required to download PassWall from the GitHub repository.
To install Git, open the terminal window and execute the following command:
sudo pacman -S git
Once Git is installed, you can clone the PassWall repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command in the terminal window:
git clone https://github.com/passwall/passwall-server.git passwall
This command will clone the PassWall repository into the "passwall" directory.
Next, you need to install the dependencies required to run PassWall. To do this, navigate to the "passwall" directory and run the following command:
cd passwall
sudo pacman -S npm python python-pip
sudo npm install -g yarn
sudo pip install cryptography
yarn install
This command will install all the dependencies required to run PassWall.
After installing the dependencies, you need to configure PassWall. To do this, copy the example configuration file and modify it as per your requirements.
cp configs/config.example.yml configs/config.yml
nano configs/config.yml
In this file, you can set your database credentials, encryption key, and other settings.
Finally, you can start the PassWall server by running the following command:
sudo python app.py -d
This command will start the PassWall server in the background. You can access the server by visiting http://localhost:6789 in your web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed PassWall on Manjaro. You can now securely manage your passwords using this password manager.
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!
