How to Install Pallet on NetBSD

Pallet is a configuration management tool that allows you to automate your infrastructure deployment, configuration, and management. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Pallet on NetBSD.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, ensure that you have the following:

Step 1: Install Java

Pallet requires Java to run, so the first step is to install Java on your NetBSD machine. Run the following command to install OpenJDK:

pkgin install openjdk11

Step 2: Install Leiningen

Leiningen is a build automation tool for Clojure applications. Pallet uses Leiningen to build and manage its dependencies. To install Leiningen, run the following commands:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/technomancy/leiningen/stable/bin/lein
chmod +x lein
mv lein /usr/local/bin

Step 3: Install Git

Next, you'll need to install Git to clone the Pallet repository. Run the following command to install Git:

pkgin install git

Step 4: Clone the Pallet Repository

Now, we'll clone the Pallet repository to your NetBSD machine. Run the following command to clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/pallet/pallet.git

Step 5: Build Pallet

Navigate to the directory where you cloned the Pallet repository and run the following command to build Pallet:

lein do clean, deps, test, install

This command will build and install Pallet on your NetBSD machine.

Step 6: Verify the Installation

To verify that Pallet has been installed correctly, run the following command:

pallet --version

This command will display the version of Pallet that you have installed on your NetBSD machine.

Conclusion

By following these simple steps, you have successfully installed Pallet on NetBSD. You are now ready to use Pallet to automate your infrastructure deployment, configuration, and management.
