Restreamer is a software that allows you to restream your video streams to multiple streaming platforms at the same time. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Restreamer on Fedora Server latest version.
Before you proceed with the installation, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to update the system packages to the latest version. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo dnf update -y
Restreamer required several dependencies such as Node.js, FFmpeg, Git, and NPM. You can install them by running the following command:
sudo dnf install nodejs ffmpeg git npm -y
Next, you need to clone the Restreamer repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/datarhei/restreamer.git
Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the restreamer directory and install the Restreamer by running the following commands:
cd restreamer/
sudo npm install --unsafe-perm
sudo npm run build
The installation process may take some time, depending on your internet speed.
After the installation, you need to configure the Restreamer by creating a configuration file. You can use the sample configuration file to create your configuration file by running the following command:
sudo cp config/config.example.json config/config.json
Edit the config.json file and replace the default values with your values:
sudo nano config/config.json
Finally, start the Restreamer by running the following command:
sudo npm start
The Restreamer should now start, and you can access it by opening your web browser and navigating to http://[SERVER_IP]:8080.
You have successfully installed Restreamer on Fedora Server latest version. Now you can restream your video streams to multiple streaming platforms simultaneously. If you encounter any issues during the installation, you can refer to the Restreamer documentation for further help.
