In this tutorial, we will be covering the steps required to install OneDev on a NetBSD machine. OneDev is a popular and open-source Git management tool that is known for its easy-to-use interface and extensive features. By the end of this guide, you will have OneDev up and running on your NetBSD machine.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to download OneDev from its official website at https://onedev.io/download/. Click the "Download" button and select the "Unix/Linux" option. This will download a file called "onedev-server.zip" in your Downloads folder.
Open a terminal window and navigate to your Downloads folder using the following command:
cd ~/Downloads
Once you are in the Downloads folder, extract the OneDev file using the following command:
unzip onedev-server.zip -d onedev
This command will extract the contents of the ZIP file to a folder called "onedev" in your Downloads folder.
Next, we will configure OneDev by editing the configuration file. Navigate to the onedev folder using the following command:
cd ~/Downloads/onedev
Once you are in the folder, open the "conf/onedev-default.properties" file using your favorite text editor. We will be using vim in this tutorial:
vim conf/onedev-default.properties
Inside the configuration file, scroll to the bottom until you find the line that reads "server.port=6610". Change the port number to a number of your choosing, but make sure it is greater than 1024.
Once you have made the changes, save the file and exit the text editor.
With our configuration in place, let's start OneDev by running the following command:
./bin/onedev start
This command will start the OneDev server in the background. To check if the server is running, you can use the following command:
./bin/onedev status
If the server is running, you should see an output similar to the following:
OneDev server is running with 15110m memory
With OneDev running, we can access it by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:6610. If everything was configured correctly, you should see the OneDev login page.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed OneDev on your NetBSD machine. With OneDev up and running, you can start using it to manage your Git repositories and collaborate with your team. If you face any issues during the installation process, make sure to check the official OneDev documentation at https://onedev.io/docs/ for help.
