Darkwire.io is an open-source real-time messaging service that provides end-to-end encryption for secure communication. It is built on Node.js and uses WebSocket and WebRTC technologies for communication.
Here is a step-by-step guide to installing Darkwire.io on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before getting started, make sure you have the following installed on your system:
First, clone the Darkwire.io repository from GitHub using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/darkwire/darkwire.io.git
This will create a local copy of the repository on your system.
Navigate to the directory where you cloned the repository and install the required dependencies using the following command:
cd darkwire.io
npm install
Next, you need to configure the server. Copy the config.js.default file to config.js using the following command:
cp config.js.default config.js
Then, open the config.js file in a text editor and configure the following settings:
serverPort: The port on which the server will run (default is 3000).serverHostname: The hostname of the server (default is localhost).databaseUrl: The URL of the Mongo database (default is mongodb://localhost:27017/darkwire).sessionSecret: The secret key used to encrypt session data (default is a randomly generated string).Once you have configured the server, start it using the following command:
npm start
The server will now be running on the port you specified in the config.js file.
Open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:<serverPort>, replacing <serverPort> with the port you specified in the config.js file. You should now see the Darkwire.io login page.
That's it! You have successfully installed Darkwire.io on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now use it to communicate securely with others who have a Darkwire.io account.
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!
