Prerequisites

Before you begin with the installation process, ensure you meet these requirements:

• A Fedora CoreOS Latest instance
• Root access to the server

Step 1: Create a Tania User

To create a Tania user, login as the root user and execute the following command:

After installing Docker, enable and start it:

systemctl enable docker
systemctl start docker

pip3 install docker-compose

Step 4: Clone the Tania Repository

Clone the Tania repository from GitHub using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Tanibox/tania

Step 5: Configure Tania

The Tania configuration file is located in the tania/config directory. Rename tania.yml.example to tania.yml using this command:

cd tania/config
cp tania.yml.example tania.yml

Edit the tania.yml file using a text editor to adjust the configuration according to your needs.

Step 6: Start Tania
