How to Install PurritoBin on OpenSUSE Latest

PurritoBin is a lightweight pastebin web application written in PHP that allows you to share code snippets, text, or files. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of PurritoBin on OpenSUSE Latest.

Prerequisites

To follow this tutorial, you will need:

• A running instance of OpenSUSE Latest.
• A user account with root privileges on the server.
• A web server installed and configured, such as Apache or Nginx.

Step 1: Install PHP Packages

PurritoBin is written in PHP, so the first step is to install all the required PHP packages. Open the terminal and log in to your server.

sudo zypper install php php-bcmath php-ctype php-dom php-fileinfo php-gd php-iconv php-intl php-json php-mbstring php-mysql php-pdo php-phar php-session php-simplexml php-sockets php-xml php-zip

Step 2: Install Git

Clone the PurritoBin repository from GitHub. To do this, you need to install Git on your server.

sudo zypper install git

Step 3: Clone PurritoBin Repository

Now, you can go ahead and clone the PurritoBin repository using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/PurritoBin/PurritoBin.git /var/www/purritobin

Step 4: Configure PurritoBin

Copy the config.example.php file to config.php.

cd /var/www/purritobin
cp config.example.php config.php

Edit the config.php file and set the following options:

$config['url'] = 'http://your_domain.com';
$config['database']['host'] = 'localhost';
$config['database']['user'] = 'root';
$config['database']['password'] = 'your_password';
$config['database']['name'] = 'purritobin';

Replace http://your_domain.com with your domain name, root with your MySQL user, your_password with your MySQL password, and purritobin with your database name.

Step 5: Configure Web Server

Apache

If you are using Apache, you need to create a virtual host for PurritoBin. Open the Apache configuration file:

sudo nano /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/purritobin.conf

Add the following content:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName your_domain.com
    DocumentRoot /var/www/purritobin
    <Directory /var/www/purritobin>
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Replace your_domain.com with your domain name. Save and close the file.

Restart Apache for the changes to take effect.

sudo systemctl restart apache2.service

Nginx

If you are using Nginx, you need to create a server block for PurritoBin. Open the Nginx configuration file:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/purritobin.conf

Add the following content:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name your_domain.com;
    root /var/www/purritobin;
    index index.php;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
    }
}

Replace your_domain.com with your domain name. Save and close the file.

Restart Nginx for the changes to take effect.

sudo systemctl restart nginx.service

Step 6: Test PurritoBin

Open your web browser and visit http://your_domain.com/. You should see the PurritoBin application.
