Juju is a powerful open-source cloud orchestration tool that makes it easy to deploy and manage applications. Juju simplifies the complexity of cloud computing by abstracting away the underlying technical details and automating application deployments. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Juju on Arch Linux.
Before we begin, you need to make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
Follow these steps to install Juju on your Arch Linux system:
Before you install Juju, update your Arch Linux system to ensure the latest versions of all packages are installed. Open the terminal window and run the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Juju depends on the universe repository, so you need to enable it on your Arch Linux system. Open the terminal window and run the following command:
sudo nano /etc/pacman.conf
Then, find the following line:
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
And uncomment it by removing the # symbol:
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Save the changes and close the file.
To install Juju, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo pacman -S juju
The installation process will start, and it will download and install all the required packages.
Once the installation is complete, you need to verify that Juju has been installed correctly on your Arch Linux system. Run the following command in the terminal:
juju version
If Juju has been installed correctly, you should see the version number in the output.
After installing Juju, you need to configure it before you can use it to deploy and manage applications. Start by logging in to your Juju account with the following command:
juju login
Follow the prompts to enter your Juju account credentials.
Now that Juju is installed and configured, you can use it to deploy and manage applications. To deploy an application, run the following command in the terminal:
juju deploy [application_name]
Replace [application_name] with the name of the application you want to deploy.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Juju on your Arch Linux system. Juju simplifies the complexities of cloud computing by automating application deployments and abstracting away technical details. You can now use Juju to deploy and manage applications with ease.
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!
