title: Setup
---

## Build dependencies

* Git
* GNU Make
* C compiler
* Recent Go toolchain

## Build and install

Clone the source code and run `make`.

Then run `make install` to install it. By default, it installs to `/usr/local/`.

## Runtime dependencies

* Git
* PostgreSQL 14 or later

## Configuration

### Adding a system user

Note that this process may vary depending on your OS distribution.

```
useradd -rmd /var/lib/lindenii/forge/ lindenii-forge
```

### Allowing the binary to listen to low ports

Since we usually listen on port 22 for SSH, it is necessary to allow the
Lindenii Forge binary to use low ports.

```
setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' /usr/bin/lindenii-forge
```

### Generating SSH host keys

```
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f /etc/lindenii/forge/ssh_forge_ed25519_key -N ''
```

### Initializing PostgreSQL

Assuming that you use UNIX-domain socket authentication on a local PostgreSQL
instance,

```
su - postgres
createuser lindenii-forge
createdb -O lindenii-forge lindenii-forge
psql -f /usr/share/lindenii/forge/schema.sql -d lindenii-forge
```

### Editing the configuration file

Copy `/usr/share/doc/lindenii/forge/forge.scfg` to `/etc/lindenii/forge.scfg`
and edit appropriately.
