How to Install Pachno on Ubuntu Server Latest

Pachno is a minimalist, self-hosted note-taking web application. It allows you to create and organize your notes in a simple and efficient way. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Pachno on Ubuntu Server Latest.

Prerequisites

  • A server running Ubuntu Server Latest

Step 1 - Install Docker

Before installing Pachno, we need to install Docker on our server. You can follow the official documentation to install Docker on Ubuntu.

Step 2 - Install Docker Compose

Docker Compose is a tool that allows you to define and run multi-container Docker applications. To install Docker Compose, run the following commands:

sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

To clone the Pachno repository, run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/sridharsridha/Pachno.git

Step 4 - Configure Pachno

Before running Pachno, we need to configure it. Navigate to the Pachno directory and open the .env file.

cd Pachno
nano .env

Update the APP_TOKEN value with a random string, which will be used as the application token. You can generate a random string using the following command:

openssl rand -hex 32

Update the APP_URL value with your server's IP address or domain name.

Step 5 - Run Pachno

To start the Pachno application, run the following command:

sudo docker-compose up -d

This command will start the Pachno application in detached mode. You can access the application by visiting http://your_ip_address_or_domain_name:3000 in your web browser.

Step 6 - Secure Pachno

To secure your Pachno installation, we recommend enabling SSL encryption. You can use Let's Encrypt to obtain a free SSL certificate for your domain. Follow our tutorial on how to secure Nginx with Let's Encrypt on Ubuntu to learn how to do this.
