How to Install Leed on Elementary OS Latest

Leed is an open-source RSS feed reader that you can install on your local server. This tutorial will guide you through the steps to install Leed on your Elementary OS Latest system.

Prerequisites

Before you begin with the installation process, make sure to install these prerequisites on your system:

• LAMP stack or equivalent (Apache, MySQL, PHP)
• Git
• Composer

Step 1: Install Dependencies

You can install the dependencies by running the following command in the terminal:

sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql php-curl php-xml php-mbstring git composer

Step 2: Clone the Leed Repository

Use the following command to clone the Leed repository to your system:

git clone https://github.com/LeedRSS/Leed.git /var/www/html/leed

Note: Change /var/www/html/leed to the path where you want to install Leed.

Step 3: Configure Apache

Create a new configuration file for Leed by running:

sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/leed.conf

And add the following content:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName your-domain.com
    ServerAlias www.your-domain.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/html/leed/public
    <Directory /var/www/html/leed/public>
        AllowOverride All
        Order Allow,Deny
        Allow from All
    </Directory>
    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>

Replace your-domain.com with your domain name or IP address.

Save and close the file.

Enable the new configuration file:

sudo a2ensite leed.conf

And restart Apache to apply the changes:

sudo systemctl restart apache2

Step 4: Configure MySQL

Next, create a new database and user for Leed by running the following commands:

mysql -u root -p
CREATE DATABASE leed;
CREATE USER 'leed'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON leed.* TO 'leed'@'localhost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
exit

Make sure to replace 'password' with a secure password for the Leed user.

Step 5: Install Leed

Navigate to the Leed directory:

cd /var/www/html/leed

And install the dependencies by running:

composer install

When prompted, enter the database information (host, database name, user, and password) created in the previous step.

Step 6: Finish Installation

Access the Leed installation page by navigating to http://your-domain.com/install in your web browser, replacing your-domain.com with your domain name or IP address.

Follow the instructions on the page to complete the installation process.

Once done, you can access Leed by visiting the URL http://your-domain.com in your web browser.
