In this tutorial, we will go through the steps of installing Kanbana, which is a task management application built with Node.js and Vue.js, on an OpenBSD system.
Before proceeding with the installation, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
First, we need to clone the Kanbana repository from GitHub. To do this, open a terminal and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/SrGMC/kanbana.git
This will clone the latest version of the Kanbana code to your local machine.
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the kanbana directory and install the dependencies using npm. To do this, run the following commands in the terminal:
cd kanbana
npm install --production
This will install all the dependencies required to run Kanbana in production mode.
Next, we need to create a configuration file for Kanbana. To do this, make a copy of the config.example.js file and rename it to config.js. Run the following command in the terminal:
cp config.example.js config.js
Open the config.js file in a text editor and configure the settings based on your requirements. Here are some of the important settings that you should configure:
port: The port number that Kanbana will listen on.mongoUrl: The URL of the MongoDB server that Kanbana will use to store data.auth: Set this to true if you want to enable authentication for Kanbana.Once you have configured Kanbana, you can start the application by running the following command in the terminal:
npm start
This will start the Kanbana server and it will be accessible at http://localhost:<port>, where <port> is the port number you configured in the config.js file.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install and configure Kanbana on an OpenBSD system. Now you can start using Kanbana for task management and tracking.
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!
