In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Streama on Debian Latest.
Streama is an open-source media server that allows you to stream and organize your own media content. It is a platform that can be used to share films, TV shows, and other videos with your friends and family.
Before starting this tutorial, make sure that you have administrative access to your Debian instance and that you have an active internet connection.
Let's get started!
Before installing Streama, we recommend that you update your system to the latest packages. You can do this using the following commands:
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
Streama requires Java to run. If you don't have Java installed on your system, you can install it using the following command:
sudo apt install default-jre -y
Now that you have installed Java, you can proceed with installing Streama. Follow these steps:
First, you need to install the Git client on your system. You can install it using the following command:
sudo apt install git -y
Clone the Streama GitHub repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/streamaserver/streama.git
Navigate to the Streama directory using the following command:
cd streama
Run the Streama installation script using the following command:
./gradlew bootRun
Wait for the installation process to complete. You should see a message similar to the following when the installation is complete: Tomcat started on port(s): 8080 (http) with context path ''
Now that Streama is installed, you can access it by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:8080/. You should see the Streama login page.
After successfully installing Streama, you need to configure it. Here's how to do it:
Enter your desired username and password to create a new account.
After logging in, click on the "Admin" button at the top right corner.
Click on the "Settings" button to configure Streama.
Under the "Server" tab, you can configure settings such as the port number, context path, and database credentials.
Under the "Video" tab, you can configure settings related to the video player and subtitles.
Under the "Email" tab, you can configure Streama to send email notifications.
Under the "Security" tab, you can configure settings related to user roles and permissions.
That's it! You have now successfully installed and configured Streama on your Debian Latest instance. You can start streaming your favorite media files and share them with your friends and family.
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!
