Roundup is a free and open-source issue tracking system written in Python. It is widely used by developers and project managers to keep track of bugs, tasks, and issues related to software development projects. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Roundup Issue Tracker on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before we proceed with the installation of Roundup, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Roundup is written in Python, so we need to install Python and its dependencies on our system. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo zypper install python3 python3-pip python3-setuptools
This command will install Python 3 and its required dependencies on our system.
We can install Roundup Issue Tracker using pip. Pip is a package manager for Python, and it helps us install and manage Python packages. Run the following command to install Roundup Issue Tracker:
sudo pip3 install roundup
This command will install Roundup Issue Tracker on your system.
After installing Roundup, we need to configure it before we can use it. To do this, we need to create a new instance of Roundup. Run the following command to create a new Roundup instance:
roundup-admin /path/to/your/new/instance/ init
Replace /path/to/your/new/instance/ with the path where you want to create the Roundup instance. This command will create a new directory named instance at the specified path and initialize the Roundup instance.
After creating the Roundup instance, we need to start it. Run the following command to start the Roundup instance:
roundup-server /path/to/your/new/instance/
Replace /path/to/your/new/instance/ with the path where you created the Roundup instance. This command will start the Roundup server on the default port 8910.
Now that we have started the Roundup server, we can access it using a web browser. Open a web browser and go to http://localhost:8910/. You should see the Roundup login page. Enter the default username admin and password admin to log in to Roundup.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed and configured Roundup Issue Tracker on your OpenSUSE Latest system. Enjoy tracking your issues and bugs with Roundup!
