Woodpecker is a continuous integration server that can be used to automate your software development process. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps of installing Woodpecker on Void Linux.
Before installing any software, make sure the system is up-to-date. You can update the system by running the command:
sudo xbps-install -Su
To run Woodpecker, we need to install some dependencies. Let's install them using the following command:
sudo xbps-install -y git curl build-base libffi-devel libressl-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel libyaml-devel readline-devel sqlite-devel zlib-devel postgresql-devel
Woodpecker requires Python3 and pip3 to run. Let's install them using the following command:
sudo xbps-install -y python3 python3-pip
We will now install Woodpecker using the pip3 command. Run the following command:
sudo pip3 install woodpecker
The installation process may take some time, but after it is complete, you should be able to use Woodpecker.
Now you can start Woodpecker using the following command:
woodpecker start
By default, Woodpecker will run on port 8080. You can open your web browser and go to http://localhost:8080 to access the Woodpecker web interface.
You can configure Woodpecker by editing the configuration file located at /etc/woodpecker/woodpecker.yaml. Make sure to save your changes and restart Woodpecker for the changes to take effect.
You have successfully installed Woodpecker on Void Linux. You can now use it to automate your software development process.
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!
