Gossa is a web-based photo album software that allows you to manage your photos easily. Here's how you can install Gossa on Alpine Linux.
Before we start, make sure that you have the following:
The first step is to install the dependencies required by Gossa. To do this, run the following command:
apk add --no-cache --virtual=build-dependencies go gcc musl-dev libjpeg-turbo-dev
This command will install the Go programming language, GCC, musl-dev, and libjpeg-turbo-dev.
Next, we need to clone the Gossa repository. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/pldubouilh/gossa.git
This will download the source code of Gossa to your server.
Now, we need to build Gossa from the source code. Change into the Gossa directory by running the following command:
cd gossa
Then, build Gossa by running the following command:
go build
This will create a binary file named gossa
.
Gossa needs to be configured before it can be used. Copy the example configuration file config_example.ini
to config.ini
by running the following command:
cp config_example.ini config.ini
Then, open config.ini
using your preferred text editor and modify the settings according to your needs.
Finally, we can run Gossa. To start Gossa, run the following command:
./gossa
This will start Gossa and make it available on port 8080. If you want to change the port, you can modify the http_address
setting in config.ini
.
You now have a running instance of Gossa on Alpine Linux. You can access it by visiting http://your-server-ip:8080
in your web browser.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
