ClearFlask is a powerful open-source platform for hosting user feedback discussions. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to install ClearFlask on the latest version of OpenSUSE.
We'll assume that you have a running instance of OpenSUSE and that you have the necessary privileges to install packages.
ClearFlask requires Python 3.6 or later, so the first step is to ensure that you have a version of Python that meets the requirement.
To install Python on OpenSUSE, run the following command:
sudo zypper install python3
Next, we need to install Pip. Pip is a package manager for Python that allows you to install and manage Python packages.
To install Pip on OpenSUSE, run the following command:
sudo zypper install python3-pip
Now that we have Python and Pip installed, we're ready to install ClearFlask.
We can install ClearFlask by running the following command:
sudo pip3 install clearflask
This will download and install ClearFlask along with its dependencies.
After you've installed ClearFlask, you can start it by running the following command:
clearflask run
This will start a development server, which you can access by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:5000.
By default, ClearFlask will use an SQLite database, which is not suitable for production use. You should modify the configuration to use a more robust database like MySQL or PostgreSQL.
In this tutorial, we've shown you how to install ClearFlask on OpenSUSE. Once you have ClearFlask installed, you can start building a powerful feedback discussion platform for your users.
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!
