Mejiro is an open-source application for monitoring and analyzing website performance. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Mejiro on OpenSUSE latest release.
Before installing the Mejiro application, we need to install some dependencies on the server.
To install the dependencies, execute the following command from the terminal:
sudo zypper install git curl php7 php7-mysqlnd apache2-mod_php7 mariadb mariadb-client
Now, let's clone the Mejiro source code into the server.
To clone the Mejiro source code, use the following command:
git clone https://github.com/dmpop/mejiro.git
This will create a new directory named mejiro in the current directory, which contains the Mejiro source code.
Next, we will create a new database for the Mejiro application and grant the privileges to a newly created user.
To create a new database and user, log in to the MySQL prompt using the following command:
sudo mysql
Once you have logged in, run the following MySQL commands to create a database and user, then grant all privileges to the user for the Mejiro database.
CREATE DATABASE mejiro;
CREATE USER 'mejiro'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON mejiro.* TO 'mejiro'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
Make sure to replace the password with a strong password of your choice.
After creating the database, navigate to the mejiro directory and configure the Mejiro application.
To configure, make a copy of .env.example file and name it .env. Then open the .env file with a text editor and set the database credentials as follows:
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=localhost
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=mejiro
DB_USERNAME=mejiro
DB_PASSWORD=password
Again, replace password with the password you set while creating a user.
Once you have configured the database in .env file, run the installer script using the following command:
php artisan mejiro:install
This script will create the necessary tables in the database and install Mejiro on your OpenSUSE server.
Finally, we need to configure Apache to host the Mejiro application.
To set up Apache, create a new Apache configuration file for the Mejiro application using the following command:
sudo nano /etc/apache2/conf.d/mejiro.conf
Then, paste the following configuration into the file:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mejiro.example.com # replace with your domain
DocumentRoot /var/www/mejiro/public # replace with the path to your Mejiro installation
<Directory /var/www/mejiro/public>
Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
DirectoryIndex index.php
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/mejiro_error.log # replace with the path to your log file
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/mejiro_access.log combined # replace with the path to your log file
</VirtualHost>
Don't forget to replace ServerName, DocumentRoot, ErrorLog, and CustomLog path with your own path.
Finally, restart the Apache webserver to apply the changes.
sudo systemctl restart apache2
That's it! You have successfully installed Mejiro on OpenSUSE latest release. It is now ready to be used for monitoring and analyzing website performance.
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!
