Bagisto is an open-source e-commerce platform written in PHP. It is built on top of the Laravel framework and offers a range of features, such as inventory management, customer management, and payment gateway integrations. In this tutorial, we will walk through how to install Bagisto on OpenBSD.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following requirements in place:
OpenBSD provides packages via its built-in package manager, known as pkg_add. Therefore, use the following command to install the required packages:
sudo pkg_add php php-pcntl php-mbstring php-xml php-pdo php-mysqli php-json php-curl git unzip
Bagisto requires Composer to be installed to manage its dependencies. To install Composer on your server, run the following command:
sudo php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
sudo php composer-setup.php --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer
Once Composer is installed, we can clone the Bagisto repository using Git. To do this, run the following command:
sudo git clone https://github.com/bagisto/bagisto.git /var/www/html/bagisto
Next, change your working directory to the Bagisto root directory:
cd /var/www/html/bagisto
Now, install the required dependencies using Composer:
sudo composer install --no-dev
Bagisto requires a web server to run. You can use either Nginx or Apache to host Bagisto.
If you are using Apache, create a virtual host file for Bagisto:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/httpd-bagisto.conf
And add the following:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName bagisto.example.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/bagisto/public
<Directory /var/www/html/bagisto>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/www/html/bagisto/logs/error.log
CustomLog /var/www/html/bagisto/logs/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
Save the file and restart Apache:
sudo apachectl graceful
If you are using Nginx, create a server block for Bagisto:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/bagisto
And add the following:
server {
listen 80;
server_name bagisto.example.com;
root /var/www/html/bagisto/public;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_n$
include fastcgi_params;
}
access_log /var/www/html/bagisto/logs/access.log;
error_log /var/www/html/bagisto/logs/error.log;
}
Save the file, and create a symbolic link to the Nginx sites-enabled
directory:
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/bagisto /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/bagisto
Restart Nginx:
sudo service nginx restart
Finally, give the appropriate permissions to the Bagisto directories:
sudo chown -R www:www /var/www/html/bagisto
sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www/html/bagisto
And generate a new key for the application:
sudo php artisan key:generate
In this tutorial, we've demonstrated how to install and configure Bagisto on OpenBSD. You can now access your Bagisto installation by visiting your server's IP address or domain name in a web browser.
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!
