Klaus is a simple, easy-to-use web-based viewer for Git repositories. In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of installing Klaus on a NixOS Latest system.
Before we begin, we need to install Git. Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo nix-env -i git
To install Klaus, run the following command:
sudo nix-env -i klaus
Klaus is now installed on your system, but before you can use it, you need to configure it. The default configuration file for Klaus is located at /etc/klaus/klaus.cfg. You can modify this file to suit your needs. Make sure to create a backup of the file before making any changes.
Open the file using your favorite text editor and modify the settings as per your requirement.
sudo nano /etc/klaus/klaus.cfg
Once you have configured Klaus, you can start it by running the following command:
sudo systemctl start klaus
Klaus is now running and accessible from a web browser. Open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080. You should be greeted with the Klaus homepage.
You have successfully installed Klaus on your NixOS Latest system! Now you can use Klaus to view Git repositories with ease. If you have any questions or face any issues during the installation, feel free to ask for assistance.
