Wirow is an open-source serverless platform for developers. It allows you to run your code without worrying about infrastructure management, scaling, or fault-tolerance. This tutorial will guide you through the installation process of Wirow on Alpine Linux Latest.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Wirow is built on top of Docker technology. Therefore, you need to have Docker installed on your machine. If you have not installed Docker yet, follow the below command to install Docker:
apk add docker
Once you have installed Docker, start the Docker service using the following command:
rc-service docker start
The next step is to clone the Wirow repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/wirow-io/wirow-server.git
After cloning the repository, change the directory to the cloned repository:
cd wirow-server
Now, we need to build the Wirow Docker image. Run the below command from the root directory of the cloned repository:
docker build -t wirow-server .
This will build a Docker image with the tag wirow-server.
After building the Wirow Docker image, we need to run a Docker container based on this image.
Use the following command to run the container:
docker run -d --name wirow-server -p 8080:8080 wirow-server
Here, we are running a Docker container with the name wirow-server and exposing port 8080 to the host machine.
Once you have successfully started the Docker container, you can verify the installation by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:8080/health.
If Wirow has installed correctly, you should see a JSON response from the server.
Additionally, you can verify the status of the Docker container by running the following command:
docker ps
This should list all the running Docker containers, including the Wirow container.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Wirow on Alpine Linux Latest.
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!
