pyDash is a web-based monitoring tool that allows you to keep track of the performance and health of your Linux system. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install pyDash on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
Firstly, update your system and install the required packages. You can do this by running the following command:
sudo zypper update && sudo zypper install python3 python3-pip python3-setuptools
Once the packages are installed, you can install pyDash using pip. Run the following command to install pyDash:
sudo pip3 install pydash
Once pyDash is installed, you need to configure it. To do this, navigate to the /etc/pydash/ directory and edit the pydash.conf file using your preferred text editor:
sudo nano /etc/pydash/pydash.conf
In this file, you can configure the listening IP address and port, as well as the authorization settings. By default, pyDash listens on port 5000 and is publicly accessible. It is recommended to enable authentication if you are using pyDash in a production environment.
Now that pyDash is installed and configured, you can start the service using the following command:
sudo pydash start
You should see a message indicating that pyDash has started successfully.
Finally, open your web browser and go to http://<server-ip>:5000/. You should see the pyDash login page.
Enter the default username and password (admin and admin), and you will be redirected to the pyDash dashboard.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed pyDash on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now use pyDash to monitor the performance and health of your Linux system.
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!
