Benotes is a web-based note-taking application designed to help users organize and manage their notes efficiently. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the process of installing Benotes on NetBSD.
Before installing Benotes, you need to make sure that your NetBSD system meets the following requirements:
If Node.js and npm are not already installed on your system, you can install them using the following command:
pkgin install nodejs
Next, download the Benotes package from the official website "https://benotes.org/". Once you have downloaded the package, extract it to your desired location using the following command:
tar xfvz benotes-<version>.tar.gz
Replace
Once you have extracted the package, navigate to the root folder of the package using the terminal and run the following command to install the necessary dependencies:
npm install
After installing the dependencies, the next step is to configure Benotes by creating a configuration file. Use the sample configuration file provided with the package as a template:
cp config-sample.js config.js
You can now edit the config.js file as necessary to suit your environment.
Finally, start the Benotes server using the following command:
npm start
Once the server is running, you can access Benotes by opening your web browser and navigating to "http://localhost:3000".
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Benotes on NetBSD. Now that you have Benotes up and running, you can start organizing and managing your notes with ease.
