EveryDocs is a documentation platform that lets you create and manage documentation easily. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation of EveryDocs on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation, make sure your system meets the following requirements:
EveryDocs has several dependencies that need to be installed before we start with the installation. Run the following command to install the required packages:
sudo apt install libxslt1-dev libxml2-dev zlib1g-dev python3-dev
Virtual environment is used to isolate the dependencies of EveryDocs from the system-wide Python installation. We will install virtualenv by running the following command:
sudo apt install python3-virtualenv
Next, create a new virtual environment by running the following command:
mkdir ~/everydocs
cd ~/everydocs
virtualenv -p python3 env
Activate the virtual environment by running:
source env/bin/activate
Clone EveryDocs repository from Github using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/jonashellmann/everydocs-core.git
Navigate to the cloned repository and install the required dependencies by running the following command:
cd everydocs-core/
pip install -r requirements.txt
EveryDocs uses a database to store documents and user accounts. Initialize the database by running the following command:
python manage.py migrate
A superuser is required to create and manage documents on EveryDocs. You can create a superuser by running the following command:
python manage.py createsuperuser
Finally, run the development server by running the following command:
python manage.py runserver
By default, the server will listen on http://127.0.0.1:8000/. You can access the EveryDocs interface by navigating to this URL in a web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed EveryDocs on Ubuntu Server Latest.
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!
