Sourcehut is a web-based software development platform that provides a suite of tools for managing code, continuous integration, and other software development tasks. In this tutorial, we will explain how to install Sourcehut on the OpenSUSE Linux distribution.
Before we start, you will need the following:
The first step is to install Git on your OpenSUSE machine. Git is a distributed version control system that is required to install and use Sourcehut. To install Git, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper install git
Next, we need to clone the Sourcehut repository to our local machine. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/scdoc
This command will download the Sourcehut repository to your local machine. You can change the name of the repository to any name of your choice.
Before we can start using Sourcehut, we need to install its dependencies. To do this, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper install openssl-devel libsodium-devel
This command installs the necessary libraries that Sourcehut requires to function.
Once the dependencies are installed, we can compile and install Sourcehut on our machine. To do this, navigate to the location where you cloned the Sourcehut repository and run the following commands:
cd scdoc
make
sudo make install
This will build and install Sourcehut on your OpenSUSE machine.
Once the installation is complete, you can verify that Sourcehut is installed correctly by running the following command:
scdoc --version
If Sourcehut is installed correctly, you will see the version number displayed on your terminal.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Sourcehut on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now use this web-based software development platform to manage your code, continuous integration, and other software development tasks.
