Leanote is an open-source note-taking and organization platform. It is a self-hosted solution, which means that you can install it on your own server and have full control over your notes and data. Leanote provides a rich set of features, such as note organization, collaboration, and markdown support. It also offers a web-based interface and mobile apps for Android and iOS, allowing you to access and edit your notes from any device.
To set up a Leanote server on Rocky Linux, follow these steps:
- Start by ensuring that your system is up to date. Run the following commands to update the package index and upgrade all installed packages:
sudo dnf update
sudo dnf upgrade
This will ensure that you have the latest security updates and bug fixes installed on your system.
- Install the MongoDB database server and Git by running the following command:
sudo dnf install mongodb-server git
MongoDB is the database server that will be used to store the notes and other data for the Leanote server. Git is a version control system that will be used to download the latest version of the Leanote source code.
- Start the MongoDB service and enable it to start automatically on boot:
sudo systemctl start mongod
sudo systemctl enable mongod
This will start the MongoDB service, which is required for the Leanote server to function properly. Enabling the service to start automatically on boot ensures that it will be available every time you restart your system.
- Create a new directory for the Leanote server and clone the latest version of the Leanote source code from the official Git repository:
sudo mkdir /opt/leanote
cd /opt/leanote
sudo git clone <https://github.com/leanote/leanote.git>
This will create a new directory for the Leanote server in the /opt/leanote
directory and download the latest version of the Leanote source code from the official Git repository.
- Navigate to the
/opt/leanote/leanote/bin
directory and run theinstall.sh
script to download and install the necessary dependencies:
cd /opt/leanote/leanote/bin
sudo ./install.sh
The install.sh
script will download and install the necessary dependencies for the Leanote server, such as the Go programming language and the Node.js runtime. This may take a few minutes to complete.
- Start the Leanote server by running the
run.sh
script:
cd /opt/leanote/leanote/bin
sudo ./run.sh
This will start the Leanote server and make it available on the default port (9000).
- Open a web browser and navigate to http://your-server-ip:9000 to access the Leanote web interface. You will be prompted to set a password for the default admin user. After the password is set, you can log in to the Leanote dashboard and start creating and organizing your notes.
You have now successfully set up a Leanote server on Rocky Linux. You can customize the Leanote server settings by editing the /opt/leanote/leanote/conf/app.conf
file. For example, you can change the server port, database settings, and other options. Refer to the Leanote documentation for more information.
