How to Install Cozy Cloud on OpenBSD

Cozy Cloud is a personal cloud service that allows you to store and manage your data on your own server. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Cozy Cloud on OpenBSD.

Prerequisites

Before we start, make sure you have the following:

• A server running OpenBSD
• A domain name pointing to your server's IP address
• 2 GB of RAM or more

Step 1: Install Dependencies

First, we need to install some dependencies. We'll use the pkg_add command to do this.

sudo pkg_add node npm mongodb-server redis

Step 2: Import GPG Key

Cozy Cloud requires a GPG key to be imported. We'll use the gpg command to import the key.

curl https://apt.cozy.io/cozy.gpg | sudo gpg --import -

Step 3: Add Cozy Cloud Repository

Next, we need to add the Cozy Cloud repository to the list of repositories on our server. We'll use the echo command to add the repository.

echo "https://apt.cozy.io/debian/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cozy.list

Step 4: Update Apt

Now that we've added the Cozy Cloud repository, we need to update apt to include the new repository.

sudo apt-get update

Step 5: Install Cozy Cloud

Now we can install Cozy Cloud using the apt-get command.

sudo apt-get install cozy-stack cozy-drive cozy-couch cozy-home cozy-proxy

Step 6: Configure Cozy Cloud

Cozy Cloud requires some configuration before we can use it. First, we need to set the COZY_ADMIN_PASSWORD environment variable to a secure password.

export COZY_ADMIN_PASSWORD=<your-secure-password>

Next, we need to create a cozy-stack.conf file in the /etc/cozy/ directory.

sudo nano /etc/cozy/cozy-stack.conf

Copy and paste the following configuration into the file:

{
  "server": {
    "http": {
      "host": "0.0.0.0",
      "port": 8080
    },
    "session": {
      "name": "cozy.sid",
      "secret": "<your-session-secret>"
    },
    "admin": {
      "password": "<your-secure-password>"
    }
  },
  "client": {
    "http": {
      "host": "<your-domain.com>",
      "port": 443,
      "protocol": "https"
    }
  },
  "plugins": {
    "cozy-home": {},
    "cozy-drive": {},
    "cozy-couch": {},
    "cozy-proxy": {}
  }
}

Replace <your-domain.com> with your domain name, and <your-session-secret> with a 32-character random string.

Step 7: Start Cozy Cloud

Now that Cozy Cloud is configured, we can start it using the cozy-stack command.

sudo cozy-stack serve

Step 8: Access Cozy Cloud

You should now be able to access Cozy Cloud by visiting https://your-domain.com/.

Conclusion

Congratulations, you have successfully installed Cozy Cloud on OpenBSD! You can now start using Cozy Cloud to store and manage your personal data.
