Leantime is a project management platform that allows you to plan and track projects, tasks, and milestones. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Leantime on a Void Linux system.
Before you begin, make sure you have the latest version of Void Linux installed on your system. You also need to have the following dependencies installed:
To install the dependencies, run the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S git php composer sqlite
The first step is to clone the Leantime repository from GitHub. Run the following command in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/Leantime/leantime.git
This will clone the Leantime repository into a new directory called leantime.
Navigate to the leantime directory and run the following command to install the dependencies:
composer install --no-dev
This command will install all the required dependencies for Leantime.
Leantime requires a database to store project information. In this tutorial, we will be using SQLite, but you can also use other relational databases like MySQL or PostgreSQL.
To configure the database, create a new file named database.sqlite in the database directory:
touch database/database.sqlite
Next, copy the .env.example file to .env:
cp .env.example .env
Open the .env file with a text editor and modify the following lines to reflect your database configuration:
DB_CONNECTION=sqlite
DB_DATABASE=/full/path/to/database.sqlite
Replace /full/path/to/database.sqlite with the full path to the database.sqlite file you created earlier.
You can now install Leantime by running the following command:
php artisan leantime:install
This command will install the Leantime application and create the required database tables.
Finally, you can run Leantime by running the following command:
php artisan serve
This will start the Leantime server, and you can access it by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:8000.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Leantime on your Void Linux system. You can now use Leantime to plan and manage your projects.
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!
