Installing Pagure on NixOS Latest

Pagure is a Git repository management system that is used to host collaborative software development projects, and it is available to be installed on NixOS Latest operating system. In this tutorial, we're going to outline the steps necessary to install Pagure on NixOS Latest.

Step 1: Install Pagure Dependencies

Before we begin with installing Pagure, we must first install some dependencies that Pagure needs to function correctly. Run the following command to install the dependencies:

Step 3: Configure Nginx

Now we must configure Nginx to serve the Pagure web pages. We can do this by adding the following code to our Nginx configuration file:

server {
   listen 80;
   server_name example.com;
   location / {
     proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000/;
   }
}

After applying the changes, make sure to restart the Nginx service by running:

sudo systemctl restart nginx

Step 4: Verify Pagure

Finally, we can verify that Pagure is working by checking the status of the service using the following command:

sudo systemctl status pagure

If everything is working correctly, the output should indicate that the service is active and running.

Conclusion
