How to Install Juntagrico on OpenBSD

juntagrico.org/">Juntagrico is an open-source software for managing community-supported agriculture (CSA) farms. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps of installing Juntagrico on OpenBSD.

Prerequisites:

• OpenBSD machine with root access
• Internet connection for package installation

Step 1: Install Required Packages

OpenBSD uses the pkg_add package manager, which makes it easy to install required packages. Open a terminal window and run the following command:

pkg_add postgresql-server p5-DBD-Pg ruby ruby-bundler ruby-session ruby-tzinfo-data ruby-rack ruby-rack-protection ruby-tilt ruby-stringex ruby-diff-lcs

This command will install PostgreSQL, Ruby, and other required packages for running Juntagrico.

Step 2: Install Juntagrico

After installing the required packages, let's proceed with Juntagrico installation. We will use the git command to clone the Juntagrico repository. Open a terminal window and run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/juntagrico/juntagrico.git

This command will download the Juntagrico source code on your OpenBSD machine. Go to the Juntagrico directory using the following command:

cd juntagrico

Now, use the bundler command to install the required Ruby gems. Run the following command:

bundle install

This command will install the required Ruby gems for Juntagrico.

Step 3: Configure PostgreSQL

Juntagrico uses PostgreSQL as its database backend. Let's create a new PostgreSQL database for Juntagrico. Run the following command:

su - _postgresql -c "initdb -D /var/postgresql/data"

This command will create a new PostgreSQL database cluster. Now, start the PostgreSQL server using the following command:

rcctl start postgresql

Next, create a new PostgreSQL user and database for Juntagrico. Run the following command:

su - _postgresql -c "createuser -P juntagrico"
su - _postgresql -c "createdb -O juntagrico juntagrico"

Enter a password when prompted for the juntagrico user.

Step 4: Configure Juntagrico

Before running Juntagrico, we need to configure it. Use the following command to create a new configuration file:

cp config/config.yml.example config/config.yml

Edit the config.yml file with your preferred editor, such as nano or vim:

nano config/config.yml

In the config.yml file, you will find the following lines:

database:
  adapter: postgresql
  encoding: utf8
  database: juntagrico
  username: juntagrico
  password: your-password-here
  host: localhost
  port: 5432

Replace the password parameter with the one you set during database creation.

Step 5: Start Juntagrico

We have now completed the Juntagrico installation and configuration process. Let's start the Juntagrico server using the following command:

bundle exec rackup config.ru

This command will start the Juntagrico server on port 9292.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Juntagrico on OpenBSD. You can now start using Juntagrico to manage your community-supported agriculture (CSA) farm.
