Libravatar is a free and open-source software that allows you to host your own avatar images for use on websites and applications across the web. In this tutorial, we will go through the process of installing Libravatar on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before you start this tutorial, you will need the following:
Libravatar runs in a Docker container, so the first step is to install Docker on your Fedora CoreOS server. To do this, open a terminal and type the following commands:
$ sudo systemctl start docker
$ sudo systemctl enable docker
This will start the Docker daemon and make sure it starts automatically when you boot your server.
Next, you need to download the Libravatar Docker image from the Docker hub. To do this, type the following command in the terminal:
$ sudo docker pull libravatar/libravatar
This will download the latest version of the Libravatar Docker image.
Once you have downloaded the Docker image, you can start the Libravatar container using the following command:
$ sudo docker run -d --name=libravatar -p 80:80 -p 443:443 libravatar/libravatar
This will start the Libravatar container in detached mode, which means it will run in the background. The -p option maps the container's HTTP and HTTPS ports to the server's HTTP and HTTPS ports, respectively.
After you have started the Libravatar container, you need to configure it. First, you need to create a Libravatar account at https://www.libravatar.org/. Once you have created an account, log in to the Libravatar dashboard.
Next, you need to add a new avatar to your Libravatar account. Click on the "Add an avatar" button and upload an image. Once you have added an avatar, it will be available to use on any website or application that supports Libravatar.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Libravatar on Fedora CoreOS Latest. You can now use your Libravatar avatar on any website or application that supports Libravatar.
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!
