Tutorial: Installing basic components required for Beehive system

This article will guide you through the installation of necessary components for Beehole system on Debian Linux distribution.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mariadb-server

Create Database Account:

Once inside, paste the following code to create a database account and a database. Before pasting, replace beehole_db_name with your preferred database name (e.g. Beehole), replace beehole_db_user with your preferred database account, and replace beehole_db_password with the account password. These three parameters need to be recorded as they will be required during the installation of Beehole system.

CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS beehole_db_name DEFAULT CHARSET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_general_ci;
CREATE USER 'beehole_db_user'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'beehole_db_password';
