How to Install Hub20 on Arch Linux

Hub20 is a productivity platform that offers several tools such as kanban boards, calendars, and time trackers. It's a great tool for remote teams and freelancers. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Hub20 on Arch Linux.

Prerequisites

Before we start, make sure your Arch Linux system is up to date. You can update your system by running the following command in a terminal:

sudo pacman -Syu

Step 1: Install Dependencies

First, we need to install some dependencies. Run the following command in a terminal:

sudo pacman -S nodejs npm git

Step 2: Clone Hub20 Repository

Next, let's clone the Hub20 repository to our system. To do this, run the following command in a terminal:

git clone https://github.com/the20/hub20.git

This will clone the repository to a directory named "hub20" in your current working directory.

Step 3: Install Packages

Now, let's navigate to the "hub20" directory and install the required packages. Run the following commands in a terminal:

cd hub20
npm install

Step 4: Configure Hub20

Hub20 requires a configuration file to run. Copy the example configuration file to "config.js" using the following command in a terminal:

cp config.example.js config.js

Now we need to edit the configuration file. Open the "config.js" file in a text editor and modify the following values:

  • host: Change this to the hostname or IP address of your server.
  • port: Change this to the desired port (default is 3000).
  • mongoUri: Set this to the URI of your MongoDB server.

Save the changes to the file.

Step 5: Start Hub20

Finally, we can start the Hub20 server. Run the following command in a terminal:

npm start

This will start the server and listen for incoming connections.

Step 6: Access Hub20

Hub20 is now ready to use. Open your web browser and navigate to "http://:" (replace <your-server-ip> and <port> with the values you set in the configuration file).

You should now see the Hub20 login page. Enter your email address and password to log in and start using Hub20.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Hub20 on Arch Linux.
