Libervia is an easy-to-use web-based client for XMPP servers that allows you to communicate with other XMPP users, join MUC rooms, and more. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to install Libervia on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
The first thing you need to do is to install Docker on your Fedora CoreOS Latest. You can do it by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo systemctl enable docker
sudo systemctl start docker
Once Docker is up and running, you can move on to the next step.
The next step is to clone the Libervia repository from https://repos.goffi.org/libervia-web. You can do it by running the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://repos.goffi.org/libervia-web.git ~/libervia-web
This will clone the Libervia repository to the ~/libervia-web
directory.
Before you can use Libervia, you need to configure it. You can do it by editing the configuration.py
file located in the ~/libervia-web
directory.
cd ~/libervia-web
cp configuration.py.sample configuration.py
nano configuration.py
In the configuration.py
file, you need to set the XMPP_SERVER
variable to the name or IP address of your XMPP server. You also need to set the XMPP_ACCOUNT
variable to your account name and the XMPP_PASSWORD
variable to your account password.
The next step is to build the Docker image from the Dockerfile
located in the ~/libervia-web
directory. You can do it by running the following command in your terminal:
cd ~/libervia-web
sudo docker build -t libervia-web .
This will build the Docker image and tag it as libervia-web
.
The final step is to run the Docker container from the libervia-web
image. You can do it by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo docker run -d --name libervia-web -p 8080:80 libervia-web
This will run the libervia-web
container, bind port 8080
to port 80
inside the container, and detach it from the terminal.
Once the container is up and running, you can access the Libervia web interface by going to http://<your-ip-address>:8080
in your web browser.
And that's it! You have successfully installed Libervia on Fedora CoreOS Latest. Enjoy communicating with other XMPP users!
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!
