CryptPad is a free and open-source software suite for collaborative text editing and document sharing. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing CryptPad on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before we start with the installation, you need to have the following:
CryptPad requires Node.js, which is a JavaScript runtime for executing JavaScript code on the server-side. To install Node.js on your OpenSUSE Latest, you can use the following command:
sudo zypper install nodejs
After the installation, verify the version of Node.js using the following command:
node -v
You should see the version number of Node.js installed on your system.
Now, we can install CryptPad. CryptPad has its own installation script that you can download from GitHub. To download the script, use the following command:
wget https://github.com/xwiki-labs/cryptpad/releases/download/4.3.0/cryptpad-4.3.0.tar.gz
Extract the downloaded file using the following command:
tar -xvzf cryptpad-4.3.0.tar.gz
After extracting the file, change your directory to the extracted directory using the following command:
cd cryptpad-4.3.0
Now, run the installation script using the following command:
sudo ./bin/install.sh
The script will install all the required dependencies and set up the CryptPad application.
After the installation is completed, you can start the CryptPad application using the following command:
sudo ./bin/run.sh
You should see a message indicating that CryptPad is now running and listening on port 3000.
Now that CryptPad is running, you can access it using your web browser. Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to access the CryptPad application.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install CryptPad on OpenSUSE Latest. CryptPad is a powerful tool for collaborative text editing and document sharing, and it is now ready to use on your OpenSUSE Latest system.
Happy editing!
