This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install Patrowl, a threat intelligence platform, on Manjaro. The installation process involves setting up a virtual environment, cloning the Patrowl Manager repository from GitHub, and running the installation script.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
First, you need to create a virtual environment to isolate the Patrowl installation from the system's Python environment. This step helps to ensure that Patrowl has all the necessary dependencies and can run without any conflicts.
Open a terminal and enter the following commands:
$ python -m venv ~/Patrowl
$ source ~/Patrowl/bin/activate
Note that the second command activates the virtual environment. You should see your prompt change to indicate that you're now working within the virtual environment.
Next, you need to clone the Patrowl Manager repository from GitHub. Run the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/Patrowl/PatrowlManager.git ~/patrowl-manager
This command clones the repository to the ~/patrowl-manager directory.
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the ~/patrowl-manager directory and run the installation script as follows:
$ cd ~/patrowl-manager
$ sudo ./scripts/install.sh
This script installs all the required dependencies and sets up the Patrowl Manager application.
You can now start the Patrowl Manager application by running the following command:
$ sudo patrowl-manager
Once the application starts, you can access it by navigating to http://localhost:8000 in your web browser. Enter the default username (admin) and password (admin) to log in.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install Patrowl on Manjaro by setting up a virtual environment, cloning the Patrowl Manager repository from GitHub, and running the installation script. You can now start exploring the Patrowl Manager application to manage your threat intelligence data.
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!
