ioBroker is an open source home automation platform that allows you to connect and control different devices and services in your smart devices ecosystem. It can be installed on a variety of platforms, including Fedora CoreOS. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install ioBroker on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before installing ioBroker, it is important to update your Fedora CoreOS system to the latest version. To do this, run the following command:
$ sudo rpm-ostree update
This will download and install any available updates for your system.
Next, we need to install some packages that are required for ioBroker to run on Fedora CoreOS. Run the following command to install these packages:
$ sudo rpm-ostree install curl make gcc gcc-c++ glibc-devel
Now that we have all the required packages installed, we can download and install ioBroker. First, we need to download the installation script from the ioBroker website. Run the following command to do this:
$ curl -sL https://iobroker.net/install.sh | bash -
This will download the installation script and start the installation process. Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
Once installation is complete, we can start ioBroker using the following command:
$ sudo iobroker start
This will start the ioBroker server. By default, it listens on port 8081. We can access the ioBroker web interface by opening a web browser and navigating to http://<ip_address>:8081.
Finally, we need to configure ioBroker. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your system and connect to your devices and services.
In this tutorial, we have gone through the steps to install ioBroker on Fedora CoreOS Latest. After completing these steps, you should have a working ioBroker installation with which you can manage your smart home devices and services.
