Install Blog from Github on Fedora Server Latest

Blog is an open-source blog platform written in Go. It allows you to create, edit, and publish blog posts using a simple web interface. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Blog on Fedora Server Latest.

Requirements

  • Fedora Server Latest (Minimal Installation)
  • root user access or sudo user access
  • Internet connection

Step 1: Install Required Packages

The first step is to install the required packages on your Fedora Server Latest. You can install them using the following command:

sudo dnf install git golang

Step 2: Download and Install Blog

Once the required packages are installed, you can download and install Blog from Github using the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/m1k1o/blog.git
cd blog
make build
sudo make install

The above commands will download the source code of the Blog platform and compile it. Then it will install the binary files in the /usr/local/bin directory.

Step 3: Create a Systemd Service

In order to run Blog as a service, you need to create a systemd service file. Create the file /etc/systemd/system/blog.service with the following contents:

[Unit]
Description=Blog Service
After=network.target

[Service]
User=root
Group=root
WorkingDirectory=/root/blog
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/blog serve
Restart=always

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

This service file specifies that Blog should be run as a service under the root user.

Step 4: Enable and Start the Service

After creating the service file, you need to enable and start the service using the following commands:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable blog.service
sudo systemctl start blog.service

You can check the status of the service using the following command:

sudo systemctl status blog.service

If everything is working correctly, you should see a message indicating that the Blog service is active and running.

Step 5: Configure Blog

Finally, you can configure Blog by editing the configuration file at /root/blog/conf/config.yaml. The configuration file contains various settings such as the server address, database URL and authentication options.

Once you have configured Blog, you can access it using a web browser by navigating to the server's IP address or domain name.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Blog on your Fedora Server Latest.
