Restyaboard is a modern and easy-to-use open-source Kanban board software, which can be used for project management and collaboration. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Restyaboard on Void Linux.
To install Restyaboard on Void Linux, you will need the following:
First, we need to install Docker and Docker Compose on our Void Linux server. Docker is a containerization software that allows you to run applications in isolated containers, while Docker Compose is a tool that simplifies the management of multiple Docker containers.
We can install both Docker and Docker Compose using the xbps package manager:
sudo xbps-install -S docker-compose docker
Once the installation is complete, start the Docker service and enable it to start automatically on boot:
sudo ln -s /etc/sv/docker/ /var/service/
Next, we need to clone the Restyaboard repository from GitHub:
git clone https://github.com/RestyaPlatform/board.git
This will download the latest version of Restyaboard's source code to your system.
Before we can start Restyaboard, we need to configure it by editing its restyaboard.env file. This file contains environment variables that are used by the application.
Navigate to the board directory and make a copy of the template file:
cd board
cp restyaboard.env.template restyaboard.env
Open the restyaboard.env file in a text editor:
nano restyaboard.env
Set the value of MYSQL_DATABASE, MYSQL_USER, and MYSQL_PASSWORD to the desired values. You can also modify other options if necessary.
Save and close the file.
Now we are ready to start Restyaboard. We will use Docker Compose to launch multiple containers that make up the application.
Start the containers by running:
sudo docker-compose up -d
This may take a few minutes to complete. Once it is done, you can check the status of the containers by running:
sudo docker-compose ps
This will display the status of each container, and they should all be running.
Restyaboard is now installed and running on your Void Linux server. You can access it by opening a web browser and navigating to http://<your-server-ip>:8000.
You should see the Restyaboard login page. The default login credentials are:
Username: admin
Password: restya
You can log in with these credentials and start using Restyaboard.
In this tutorial, we have demonstrated how to install Restyaboard on Void Linux using Docker Compose. Restyaboard is a useful tool for project management, and it can help teams collaborate and stay organized. With the steps outlined above, you can quickly set up Restyaboard on your Void Linux server and start using it.
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!
