How to Install Umami on OpenBSD

In this tutorial, we'll show you how to install Umami, a self-hosted analytics platform, on OpenBSD using a PostgreSQL database.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, you'll need:

First, log in to your server via SSH.
Next, update the package database by running the following command:
```
sudo pkg_add -u
```
Install Node.js and NPM by running the following command:
```
sudo pkg_add node npm
```
Install Git by running the following command:
```
sudo pkg_add git
```
Clone the Umami repository by running the following command:
```
git clone https://github.com/mikecao/umami.git
```
Change into the Umami directory:
```
cd umami
```
Install the required packages by running the following command:
```
npm install
```
Install the node-pg package by running the following command:
```
npm install pg
```
Create a configuration file by running the following command:
```
cp .env.example .env
```

Edit the .env file to configure the database connection:

DB_TYPE=postgres
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=5432
DB_NAME=umami
DB_USERNAME=umami
DB_PASSWORD=your_password_here

Create the database and user by running the following command:

psql -c "create user umami with login createdb password 'your_password_here';"
psql -c "create database umami owner umami;"

Run the database migrations by running the following command:
```
npx prisma migrate deploy
```
Start the server by running the following command:
```
npm start
```
Umami is now installed and running on your OpenBSD server. You can access it by navigating to http://your-server-ip-address:3000 in your web browser.

Congratulations, you now know how to install Umami on OpenBSD!

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!
