Warpgate is a powerful and flexible cloud-native data exchange solution that allows users to securely exchange data between various cloud networks. In this tutorial, we will look at how to install Warpgate on EndeavourOS latest.
Before installing Warpgate, ensure that you have the following:
Warpgate requires Docker and Docker Compose to be installed. If you already have these packages installed, then you can skip this step.
To install Docker, use the following command:
sudo pacman -S docker
To install Docker Compose, use the following command:
sudo pacman -S docker-compose
After installing both packages, ensure that Docker is running by typing:
systemctl start docker
And enable it at startup:
systemctl enable docker
Once you have installed Docker and Docker Compose, you need to clone the Warpgate repository from GitHub. To do that, use the following command:
git clone https://github.com/warp-tech/warpgate.git
This command will create a directory named "warpgate" in your current directory.
After cloning the Warpgate repository, use the cd command to move into the directory:
cd warpgate
Warpgate has a configuration file that needs to be edited. Use the text editor of your choice (vim, nano, etc.) to edit the configuration file:
nano docker-compose.yml
Edit the following lines with your relevant details:
WARPGATE_DOMAIN: yourdomain.com
WARPGATE_EMAIL: youremail@yourdomain.com
To start Warpgate, use the following command:
sudo docker-compose up -d
This will start the Warpgate server in detached mode.
If you want to access Warpgate over the internet, you will need to configure a reverse proxy. One of the most popular reverse proxies is Nginx.
To install Nginx, use the following command:
sudo pacman -S nginx
After installing Nginx, create a new server block for your Warpgate domain:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/yourdomain.com.conf
Add the following code in the new config file:
server {
listen 80;
server_name yourdomain.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8181;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
}
}
Save the file and test the Nginx configuration:
sudo nginx -t
If the configuration is OK, restart Nginx:
sudo systemctl restart nginx
Now you can access Warpgate by browsing to http://yourdomain.com:8181 (replace "yourdomain.com" with your actual domain).
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Warpgate on EndeavourOS and configured it to work with a reverse proxy.
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!
