How to install Password Pusher on Manjaro

Password Pusher is a free and open-source tool that allows you to securely share passwords and other sensitive information with others. It is a web-based application that can be accessed from any device with an internet connection. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Password Pusher on a Manjaro system.

Prerequisites

Before you start with the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:

• A Manjaro system with root access
• A web server (Apache or Nginx)
• PHP version 5.5 or later
• Composer (for managing dependencies)

Step 1: Install Dependencies

The first step is to install the dependencies required by Password Pusher. Open the terminal and run the following command:

sudo pacman -S php php-cgi sqlite

Once the installation is complete, verify the PHP version using the following command:

php -v

You should see output similar to the following:

PHP 7.3.24 (cli) (built: Sep 29 2020 08:05:49) ( NTS )

Step 2: Install Git

Next, you need to install Git, a version control system used to download Password Pusher from the GitHub repository. Run the following command in the terminal:

sudo pacman -S git

Step 3: Download Password Pusher

Once Git is installed, use it to clone the Password Pusher repository using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/pglombardo/PasswordPusher.git

This will create a new directory PasswordPusher in your current working directory.

Step 4: Install Composer

Password Pusher uses Composer, a dependency manager for PHP, to manage its dependencies. To install Composer, run the following command:

sudo pacman -S composer

Once the installation is complete, run the following command in the PasswordPusher directory to install the required dependencies:

composer update

Step 5: Configure the Database

Password Pusher uses SQLite as its database. Use the following command to create a new database file:

touch PasswordPusher/Database/database.sqlite

Next, create the required tables by running the following command:

php PasswordPusher/Models/CreateDatabase.php

Step 6: Configure the Web Server

Finally, you need to configure your web server to serve Password Pusher. Create a new virtual host configuration file for your web server. For example, if you're using Apache, run the following command:

sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Add the following lines to the configuration file:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName your_domain.com
    DocumentRoot /path/to/PasswordPusher
    <Directory /path/to/PasswordPusher/>
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
                RewriteEngine On
                RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
                RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php [QSA,L]
            </IfModule>
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Replace your_domain.com with your domain name and path/to/PasswordPusher with the actual path to the PasswordPusher directory. Save the configuration file and restart your web server.

Step 7: Access Password Pusher

You can now access Password Pusher by going to your domain name in your web browser. For example, http://your_domain.com/. You will be prompted to create an account and set a master password.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Password Pusher on your Manjaro system. You can now use it to securely share passwords and other sensitive information with others.

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!
