Kresus is a personal finance manager that helps you to track your incomes and expenses easily. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Kresus on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Note: Before starting the installation process, make sure that you have sudo privileges on your server.
First, we need to install some required packages on our system. To do that, run the following command:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y build-essential g++ make git nodejs npm sqlite3
Next, we need to clone the Kresus repository from GitHub. To do that, run the following command:
git clone https://framagit.org/benjamin/kresus.git
After cloning the Kresus repository, navigate into the Kresus directory by running the following command:
cd kresus
Now, we need to install the required dependencies for Kresus. To do that, run the following command:
npm install
After installing the dependencies, we need to configure Kresus. To do that, run the following command:
npm run build
This command will compile and build the Kresus application for production. Once the build process is complete, create a new configuration file by running the following command:
cp ./config/default.json ./config/local.json
Edit the newly created local.json file by running the following command:
nano ./config/local.json
Inside the file, replace the default port number with the port number that you want to use for Kresus. Save and close the file.
Now, we can start Kresus by running the following command:
npm run start
Once the Kresus server is running, open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:<port> where <port> is the port number you configured in local.json.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Kresus on your Ubuntu Server Latest. You can now easily track your incomes and expenses using Kresus.
