Installing Libervia on Debian

In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Libervia on the latest Debian version.

Requirements

Step 1: Downloading the Required Packages

We will start by updating the package manager to ensure that all the system libraries are up to date. Run the following command:

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y

Once the update is complete, we will download the necessary packages to install Libervia. Run the following commands:

apt-get install git python3 python3-dev python3-pip libffi-dev libssl-dev

Step 2: Cloning Libervia from Git

We will now clone the Libervia repository from Git. Run the following command:

git clone https://repos.goffi.org/libervia-web.git

Step 3: Installing Libervia Dependencies

We will navigate to the cloned repository's directory and install the dependencies using pip. Run the following commands:

cd libervia-web
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Step 4: Configuring Libervia

We will now generate the configuration file for Libervia. Run the following command:

python3 run.py gen-config

This will create the ~/.config/libervia/config.cfg configuration file. Open this file and add the following lines:

[http]
enabled = true

Step 5: Running Libervia

We will now start the Libervia server by running the following command:

python3 run.py start

This will start the server on port 8000.
