DeviceHive is a powerful IoT platform that allows users to easily connect, manage, and control devices in their network. If you are running Fedora Server Latest and looking to install DeviceHive, follow these simple steps to get started:
Before installing DeviceHive, you must make sure that your system is up-to-date and all the required packages are installed. Open a terminal and run the following commands:
sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install -y java-1.8.0-openjdk-devel maven git
Next, you need to clone the DeviceHive repository from GitHub. Run the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/devicehive/devicehive-java-server.git
This will create a new directory called devicehive-java-server
in your current working directory.
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the devicehive-java-server
directory and run the following command to build DeviceHive from source:
cd devicehive-java-server
mvn clean package
This will compile and build the entire DeviceHive platform and create a binary package that you can use to deploy your own instances.
Once the build is complete, you can run DeviceHive using the following command:
java -jar target/devicehive-*.jar
This will start the DeviceHive server on port 8080. If you want to change the default port, you can pass the --server.port
argument followed by the desired port number. For example:
java -jar target/devicehive-*.jar --server.port=8888
You can access DeviceHive using a web browser by navigating to http://localhost:8080
. If you changed the port number in Step 4, replace 8080
with the new port number.
DeviceHive provides a complete REST API for managing devices and data in your IoT network. You can read more about the API and how to use it in the DeviceHive documentation.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed DeviceHive on your Fedora Server Latest instance.
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!
