In this tutorial, we will learn how to install plugNmeet on Alpine Linux latest version. plugNmeet is an open-source video conferencing platform similar to Zoom and Google Meet.
Before we begin with the installation process, let's update the system's packages by running the following command:
apk update && apk upgrade
Next, we need to install the required dependencies. Run the following command to install them:
apk add libffi-dev libressl-dev glib-dev json-glib-dev autoconf automake libtool intltool
To install plugNmeet, we need to clone the source code from their GitHub repository. Run the following command to clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/plugnmeet/plugnmeet.git
Once the repository is cloned, change the directory to the cloned repository:
cd plugnmeet
Now, run the following command to generate the configure script:
./autogen.sh
Next, run the following command to create the build files:
./configure
Finally, run the following command to build and install the plugNmeet:
make && make install
Now that we have installed plugNmeet on our Alpine Linux system, we can run it by executing the following command:
plugnmeet
This will start the plugNmeet server, which will listen on port 9090.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed plugNmeet on your Alpine Linux latest version. You can now use the platform to host video conferences and collaborate with others remotely.
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!
