How to Install Calagator on OpenBSD

Calagator is an open-source, Ruby on Rails-based event calendar application that is specifically designed for communities. This tutorial will guide you through the step-by-step process of installing Calagator on OpenBSD.

Prerequisites

Before you begin the installation process, you must ensure that your OpenBSD system fulfills the following prerequisites:

Ruby version 2.6.x or later
Git
PostgreSQL version 9.4 or later

Installation Process

Follow these simple steps to install Calagator on OpenBSD:

Update the package database and install the prerequisite packages using the following commands:
```
$ doas pkg_add ruby git postgresql-server
```
Next, create a PostgreSQL user account and database for Calagator using the following commands:
```
$ doas su - _postgresql
$ createdb calagator
$ createuser -P calagator
```
Switch back to your regular user and clone the Calagator repository:
```
$ git clone https://github.com/calagator/calagator.git
```
Navigate into the cloned directory:
```
$ cd calagator
```

Install the necessary gems using Bundler:

$ bundle install --deployment --without development test

Once the gems are installed, create a .env file in the root of the project using the following command:
```
$ cp .env.example .env
```
Edit the .env file and set the DATABASE_URL variable to the appropriate value for your PostgreSQL installation. For example:
```
DATABASE_URL=postgres://calagator:password@localhost/calagator
```
Run the following command to generate the database schema and seed the database:
```
$ bin/rake db:setup
```
Next, start the server:
```
$ bundle exec rails server
```
Once the server has started, open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000. You should now see the Calagator homepage.
