How to Install Maloja on Fedora CoreOS Latest

In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install Maloja on Fedora CoreOS using the source code available on Github.

Maloja is an open-source tool that allows you to host your own music streaming service. It provides a modern and responsive web interface, which can be accessed from any device.

Prerequisites

Before we start, let's ensure that you have the following prerequisites:

• A machine with Fedora CoreOS installed.
• A terminal window or a shell prompt.
• Administrative privileges to install packages and run commands.

Step 1: Install Dependencies

Maloja requires several dependencies to be installed on your system. Use the following command to install them:

sudo rpm-ostree install sqlite sqlite-devel opus opus-devel libvorbis libvorbis-devel curl libcurl libcurl-devel libssl libssl-devel 

This command should install all the necessary dependencies to compile and run Maloja.

Step 2: Install Maloja

Now that we have installed the necessary dependencies, let's move on and download the source code for Maloja.

git clone https://github.com/krateng/maloja.git
cd maloja

Once you have downloaded the source code for Maloja, build the application using the following command:

make all

This command should compile and build the Maloja application.

Step 3: Configure Maloja

Now that we have built the Maloja application, let's configure it with the database settings. Maloja uses an SQLite database to store the metadata of your music files.

Create a new file maloja.conf in the Maloja folder by running:

touch maloja.conf

Open the newly created file maloja.conf in a text editor, and paste the following configuration:

[maloja]
bind-address = 0.0.0.0
http-port = 8080
database-path = /etc/maloja/maloja.db

Save and close the file.

Now let's create the database file with the following command:

mkdir /etc/maloja
sqlite3 /etc/maloja/maloja.db < schema.sql

Step 4: Run Maloja

Finally, we are ready to start the Maloja application using the following command:

./maloja

This command should start the Maloja application, and you should see a message that the server is running on port 8080.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Maloja on Fedora CoreOS using the source code available on Github. You can now access your music library by opening a web browser and navigating to the address of your Fedora CoreOS machine on port 8080.
