Installing Atomic Server on Fedora Server

Atomic Server is a server implementation for working with Atomic Data, a specification for data interoperability. In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the process of installing Atomic Server on Fedora Server.

Prerequisites

Before we start, there are a few prerequisites you need to meet:

If you don't have Rust installed, you can install it using the following command:

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Installing Dependencies

Now, we'll start by installing the required dependencies for Atomic Server.

sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install libpq-devel
sudo dnf install openssl-devel
sudo dnf install libsqlite3x-devel

Building and Installing Atomic Server

To build Atomic Server and install it on the system, follow these steps:

  1. Clone the Atomic Server repository from GitHub:
git clone https://github.com/atomicdata-dev/atomic-data-rust.git
cd atomic-data-rust
  1. Build the Atomic Server using cargo:
cargo build --release
  1. Install the binary:
sudo cp target/release/atomic-server /usr/local/bin/

Starting and Testing Atomic Server

Now that you have Atomic Server installed on your system, you can start and test the installation using the following command:

sudo atomic-server start

This command will start the Atomic Server on the default port 8080. You can test the installation by visiting http://<your_server_ip>:8080/ in your web browser.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, you learned how to install Atomic Server on Fedora Server, how to install its dependencies, and how to start and test the server.
