How to Install Tolgee on NetBSD

This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Tolgee on NetBSD. Tolgee is a localization platform that allows you to easily manage and translate your projects.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following:

• NetBSD installed on your machine
• Root access to your NetBSD machine
• A text editor (e.g. nano, vim)

Step 1: Install Node.js

Tolgee requires Node.js to be installed on your NetBSD machine. To install it, use the package manager pkgin:

# pkgin update
# pkgin install nodejs

Verify that Node.js has been installed by running the following command:

$ node -v

This should output the version of Node.js you just installed.

Step 2: Install Tolgee

Download the latest version of Tolgee from the official website: https://tolgee.io. Once downloaded, extract the contents of the archive to a directory of your choice.

$ tar xvzf tolgee-x.x.x.tar.gz

Navigate to the extracted directory:

$ cd tolgee-x.x.x

Step 3: Configuration

Before starting Tolgee, you need to configure it.

Open the config.json file with your preferred text editor:

$ nano config.json

In this file, you need to specify the path to your project's root directory. Replace /path/to/your/project with the path to your project's root directory:

{
  "rootDir": "/path/to/your/project"
}

Save and close the file.

Step 4: Starting Tolgee

To start Tolgee, run the following command:

$ node app.js

You should see output similar to the following:

Server running at http://localhost:3000

Step 5: Accessing Tolgee

Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000. You should see the Tolgee dashboard.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Tolgee on NetBSD. You can now start managing and translating your projects.

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!
