TeamMapper is an open-source tool designed to help teams collaborate more efficiently. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing TeamMapper on OpenSUSE Linux.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following:
First, install NodeJS and NPM by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper in nodejs npm
Next, clone the TeamMapper repository using Git by running the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/b310-digital/teammapper.git
This will create a new directory called teammapper in your current working directory.
Navigate into the teammapper directory and install the required dependencies by running the following command:
cd teammapper
npm install
Before starting TeamMapper, you need to configure your server settings. Create a .env file in the root directory of the project and populate it with the appropriate values.
nano .env
Add the following configuration values:
HOST='localhost'
PORT=3000
SECRET_KEY='mysecretkey'
SENDGRID_API_KEY='your_sendgrid_api_key'
SMTP_HOST='smtp.gmail.com'
SMTP_PORT=465
SMTP_USER='your_email_address'
SMTP_PASSWORD='your_email_password'
You can modify the values to suit your needs.
Note: Make sure you replace your_email_address and your_email_password with your email credentials.
Start the server by running the following command in your terminal:
npm start
This will start the TeamMapper server on port 3000. You can access the server by navigating to http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed TeamMapper on OpenSUSE Linux. You can now use TeamMapper to collaborate with your teammates more efficiently.
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!
