How to Install LibreServer on Debian Latest

Here's a tutorial on how to install LibreServer on the latest version of Debian.

Requirements

To do this installation, you need:

Step 1: Download and Extract the Package

First, you need to download the package from the official website. You can use wget to download the package:

wget https://libreserver.org/package/latest.tar.xz

Once the download is complete, extract the package:

tar -xvf latest.tar.xz

You should now have a directory named LibreServer/.

Step 2: Install Dependencies

To install LibreServer, you need to install some dependencies. Run the following command:

sudo apt install python3 python3-pip python3-venv nginx postgresql-13 postgresql-server-dev-13 build-essential libpq-dev

Step 3: Create a Virtual Environment

Next, you need to create a virtual environment for LibreServer using venv.

python3 -m venv LibreServer/venv

Step 4: Activate the Virtual Environment

Activate the virtual environment with the following command:

source LibreServer/venv/bin/activate

Step 5: Install Required Packages

Install the required packages inside the virtual environment with pip.

pip install wheel
pip install -r LibreServer/requirements.txt

Step 6: Configure PostgresSQL

Create a new PostgreSQL user and database for LibreServer.

sudo -u postgres createuser --interactive
sudo -u postgres createdb libre_server

Step 7: Configure Nginx

Create a new server block for LibreServer in the Nginx configuration.

sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/libreserver

Add the following configuration:

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name your_domain_name.com;
  location / {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_redirect off;
    proxy_buffering off;
    proxy_set_header Connection '';
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    chunked_transfer_encoding off;
    proxy_read_timeout 36000s;
    proxy_send_timeout 36000s;
  }
}

Activate the server block.

sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/libreserver /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/

Step 8: Set Up the Database

Make the necessary changes to the LibreServer settings file.

nano LibreServer/server/.env

Fill in the following information:

DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres:your_password_here@localhost:5432/libre_server

Initialize the database.

python manage.py migrate

Step 9: Collect Static Files

Collect the static files with the following command:

python manage.py collectstatic --noinput

Step 10: Start the Server

Start the server with the following command:

gunicorn server.wsgi:application --bind 0.0.0.0:8000

Now you should be able to access LibreServer by visiting your_domain_name.com in your web browser.

Congratulations, you have successfully installed LibreServer on Debian Latest!
