SyncTube is a web-based media synchronization tool that allows multiple users to watch and synchronize videos in real-time. It is available on GitHub and can be installed on various operating systems including Alpine Linux. This tutorial guide will show you how to install and set up SyncTube on Alpine Linux latest.
Before you start, ensure that you have:
To install SyncTube on Alpine Linux, we need to install the following dependencies:
To install these dependencies, open the terminal and run the following commands:
# Update the system
sudo apk update
# Install Node.js and NPM
sudo apk add nodejs npm
# Install Git
sudo apk add git
After installing the dependencies, we need to clone the SyncTube repository from GitHub. To do that, run the following command:
# Clone SyncTube repository from GitHub
sudo git clone https://github.com/RblSb/SyncTube.git /path/to/synctube
Make sure to replace "/path/to/synctube" with the actual path where you want to store the SyncTube files.
After cloning the repository, navigate to the SyncTube directory and install the required packages using NPM.
# Navigate to the SyncTube directory
cd /path/to/synctube

sudo npm install
Finally, start the SyncTube server by running the following command:
# Start the SyncTube server
sudo node app.js
Once the server is running, you can access it using your web browser by visiting "http://localhost:8080/" or the server's IP address followed by ":8080/". For example, "http://192.168.0.10:8080/".
Congratulations! You have successfully installed SyncTube on Alpine Linux. You can now enjoy watching synchronized videos with your friends and family.
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!
