SeaweedFS is a fast, simple and scalable distributed file system that can be used as a storage infrastructure for your application. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install SeaweedFS on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before we begin with the installation process, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Make sure your system is up to date by running the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
This will update your system's packages to the latest version.
To install SeaweedFS on EndeavourOS Latest, we need to install it from the AUR. The AUR is a community-driven repository of packages that enables you to install software that is not available in the official repositories.
To install SeaweedFS from the AUR, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S git
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/seaweedfs-git.git
cd seaweedfs-git
makepkg -sri
This will clone the SeaweedFS package from the AUR, navigate to the package directory, and build and install the package along with its dependencies.
After the installation is complete, we can start the SeaweedFS master and volume servers.
To start the SeaweedFS master server, run the following command:
sudo seaweedfs master
This will start the SeaweedFS master server on the default port 9333.
To start the SeaweedFS volume server, run the following command:
sudo seaweedfs volume -dir=/var/lib/seaweedfs
This will start the SeaweedFS volume server and store the data in the /var/lib/seaweedfs directory.
After the SeaweedFS master and volume servers are running, we can access SeaweedFS using the web-based dashboard.
To access the SeaweedFS dashboard, open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:9333. This will open the SeaweedFS dashboard, which will show you the status of your servers and the stored data.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install SeaweedFS on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now use SeaweedFS as a distributed file system to store and access your data in a fast, simple, and scalable way.
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!
