How to Install Mejiro on Manjaro

Mejiro is a Ruby on Rails application that helps you monitor the status of your servers and applications. In this tutorial, we are going to install Mejiro on Manjaro.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following:

• A Manjaro machine with a desktop environment installed
• Ruby version 2.7 or higher installed
• Rails version 6.0 or higher installed
• Git installed

Step 1: Clone the Mejiro Repository

First, we need to clone the Mejiro repository using Git. Open a terminal and run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/dmpop/mejiro.git

This will clone the repository into a folder named "mejiro".

Step 2: Install Required Dependencies

Next, we need to install a few dependencies that Mejiro requires to run. Open a terminal and run the following commands:

cd mejiro
bundle install

This will install all the required gems specified in the Gemfile.

Step 3: Configure Mejiro

Before we can start Mejiro, we need to configure it. Mejiro uses a configuration file named "config/mejiro.yml". Copy the sample configuration file by running the following command:

cp config/mejiro.yml.sample config/mejiro.yml

Next, open the "config/mejiro.yml" file in a text editor and update the settings according to your needs. For example, you can change the database configuration or the email settings.

Step 4: Initialize the Database

Now we need to initialize the database. Run the following command:

rails db:setup

This will create the database and run the migrations.

Step 5: Start Mejiro

Finally, we can start Mejiro by running the following command:

rails server

This will start Mejiro on the default port (3000). Open a web browser and go to "http://localhost:3000" to access the application.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Mejiro on Manjaro. You can now use Mejiro to monitor the status of your servers and applications.
