In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Strider on POP! OS latest. Strider is an open-source Continuous Deployment tool that can be used for testing and deployment of code. It helps to automate the deployment process, pushing code to production or testing.
To follow this tutorial, you need to have the following:
Let's get started.
Before we proceed with Strider installation, let's update the package list using the following command:
sudo apt update
Strider is built on Node.js, so we need to make sure that Node.js is installed on our system. We can install Node.js using the following command:
sudo apt install nodejs
After Node.js installation completed, verify the Node.js version installed via following command:
node -v
Strider needs MongoDB to store data. We can install it using the following command:
sudo apt install mongodb
After mongodb installation complete, start MongoDB using the following command:
sudo systemctl start mongodb
And then enable mongodb service to make it running on boot using this command:
sudo systemctl enable mongodb
Now that Node.js and MongoDB are installed, we can proceed to install Strider. We will use NPM, which is a Node package manager, to install Strider. Run the following command:
sudo npm install -g strider
Wait for the installation to complete.
To start Strider, run the following command:
strider
This will start Strider on port 3000. You can access it by opening your browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Strider on POP! OS latest. You can use it to automate the deployment process and test your code.
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!
