StackStorm is an open-source automation platform that provides event-driven automation through workflows, actions, and rules. In this tutorial, we will be walking through the process of installing StackStorm on a NetBSD machine.
Before getting started, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed on your machine:
Follow these steps to install StackStorm on a NetBSD machine:
Make sure you have python-pip package installed. If it's not yet installed, run the following command to install pip:
$ sudo pkgin install py-pip
Run the following command to install StackStorm via pip:
$ sudo pip install st2
To configure StackStorm, you need to run the setup script provided by StackStorm. Run the following command to run the setup script:
$ sudo st2ctl setup
During the installation process, you will be prompted to set up a database connection, etc. Follow the prompts to configure StackStorm as per your requirements.
Now that StackStorm is configured, you can start the StackStorm services by running the following command:
$ sudo st2ctl start
StackStorm should now be running on your machine.
You can test whether the StackStorm service is running by navigating to the StackStorm web UI by opening a web browser and going to http://<your-netbsd-ip>:8080
. If the page loads successfully, it means StackStorm is running and ready to use.
StackStorm is now installed on your NetBSD machine, and you're ready to start creating workflows, actions, and rules to automate your tasks. Happy automating!
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!
