Leon is an open-source personal assistant that runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows. In this tutorial, we will be installing Leon on OpenBSD, a free and open-source Unix-like operating system.
Before proceeding with the installation of Leon, make sure that you have:
Leon is built on Node.js, so we need to install Node.js and npm first. To install Node.js and npm on OpenBSD, run the following command as root:
# pkg_add node
This command will download and install Node.js and npm from the OpenBSD package repository.
Next, we need to clone Leon's repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/leon-ai/leon.git
This will create a new directory named leon
that contains the Leon source code.
Now that we have Leon's source code, we need to install its dependencies. To do this, navigate to the leon
directory and run the following command:
$ npm install --only=production
This command will install all of the required dependencies for the production environment.
Before we can use Leon, we need to configure it. To do this, we need to create a .env
file in the leon
directory. This file contains the configuration options for Leon.
A sample .env
file is provided in the leon
directory. To use it, run the following command:
$ cp .env.example .env
This will create a new .env
file that you can edit to fit your needs.
Finally, we are ready to start Leon. To start Leon, run the following command:
$ npm start
This will start Leon and you should see some logs indicating that it is running.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Leon on OpenBSD. You can now start using Leon and exploring its features. If you run into any issues, be sure to check the documentation or reach out to the Leon community for help.
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!
