Nullboard is an open-source, minimalistic kanban board web application that can be hosted on your own server. In this tutorial, we will go over the steps to install Nullboard on NetBSD.
Before starting the installation process, make sure NetBSD is up-to-date and that the following packages are installed:
gitgoTo install the packages, run the following command:
pkgin update && pkgin install git go
The first step is to clone the Nullboard repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/apankrat/nullboard.git
This will clone the Nullboard repository into a directory named "nullboard".
To build Nullboard, we need to install its dependencies. Navigate to the nullboard directory and run the following command:
go mod download
This will download and install all of the necessary dependencies.
Once the dependencies are installed, build Nullboard by running the following command:
go build
This will create a binary executable named "nullboard".
Before running Nullboard, we need to create a configuration file. Copy the sample configuration file to a new file named "config.yml":
cp config.example.yml config.yml
Open the "config.yml" file and modify the settings as needed. The most important setting is the "bind-listen" field, which should be set to the IP address and port where Nullboard will listen for incoming connections.
Once the configuration file is set up, run Nullboard by running the following command:
./nullboard -config config.yml
Nullboard should now be running and accessible via a web browser at the IP address and port specified in the configuration file.
In this tutorial, we went through the steps to install Nullboard on NetBSD. With this minimalistic Kanban board web application, you can easily manage your projects and organize your tasks.
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!
