How to Install Talkyard on OpenSUSE Latest

Talkyard is an open-source discussion platform that enables people to have conversations, ask questions, and share ideas. It supports different types of communication, such as private messaging and public discussions. This tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on how to install Talkyard on OpenSUSE using Docker.

Prerequisites

Before proceeding with the installation, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

A running instance of OpenSUSE Latest
Docker installed
A terminal or command-line interface

Step 1: Install Docker

Before we can install Talkyard, we need to first install Docker. Docker allows us to run the Talkyard application in a container. To install Docker on OpenSUSE, follow these steps:

Open a terminal or command-line interface.

Use the following command to add the Docker repository:

sudo zypper addrepo https://download.docker.com/linux/opensuse/15.3/standard/x86_64/docker-ce.repo

Update the package cache by running the command:
```
sudo zypper ref
```
Finally, use the following command to install Docker:
```
sudo zypper in docker-ce
```
After the installation is complete, start the Docker daemon:
```
sudo systemctl start docker
```
Verify that Docker is running by running the following command:
```
sudo docker version
```
If Docker is installed correctly, it should display the version of Docker installed on your system.

Step 2: Download Talkyard

After installing Docker, we can download the Talkyard application. To download Talkyard, run the following command:

sudo docker pull debiki/talkyard-appserver:latest

This command downloads the latest version of Talkyard from the official Docker Hub repository.

Step 3: Start Talkyard

Now that we have Docker and Talkyard installed, we can start Talkyard by running the following command:

sudo docker run -it --rm -p 80:80 debiki/talkyard-appserver

This command starts a new Docker container and runs the Talkyard application. It also maps port 80 on the container to port 80 on the host system, allowing users to access the application via a web browser.

Step 4: Access Talkyard

To access Talkyard, open a web browser and enter the IP address of your OpenSUSE system followed by the port number (80 by default). For example, if your system's IP address is 192.168.1.100, enter http://192.168.1.100:80 in your web browser.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Talkyard on OpenSUSE Latest using Docker.
