Uptime Kuma is an open-source self-hosted monitoring tool that allows you to monitor the uptime and status of your websites, servers, and services. It is written in Go and uses a lightweight and fast architecture that can handle thousands of checks per second. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Uptime Kuma on a Fedora Server latest system.
Before starting with the installation process, make sure that your system meets the following prerequisites:
Uptime Kuma requires some system dependencies to run correctly. We need to install these dependencies before installing Uptime Kuma. To install these dependencies, run the following command:
sudo dnf install -y git nodejs npm gcc make
Uptime Kuma is written in Go, so we need to install Go on our system. To install Go, follow these steps:
Visit the official Go language website and download the latest version of Go for your Fedora system. You can find the latest version of Go at the following link: https://golang.org/dl/
wget https://golang.org/dl/go1.17.linux-amd64.tar.gz
sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.17.linux-amd64.tar.gz
After extracting Go, we need to set Go environment variables, such as PATH, GOPATH, and GOROOT. Edit the /etc/profile file and add the following lines:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
Save the changes and execute the following command to load the environment variables:
source /etc/profile
After setting up the Go environment, run the following command to verify that Go is installed correctly:
go version
After installing the dependencies and Go, we can now proceed with the installation of Uptime Kuma. To install Uptime Kuma, follow these steps:
Clone the Uptime Kuma repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma.git
Go to the uptime-kuma directory and install Uptime Kuma dependencies using the following command:
cd uptime-kuma
make dep
After installing the dependencies, build and install Uptime Kuma using the following command:
make install
This command will build Uptime Kuma and copy the binary file to /usr/local/bin/uptime-kuma
Now we can start Uptime Kuma by running the following command:
uptime-kuma
Uptime Kuma is now up and running on your Fedora system. To access the Uptime Kuma web interface, open your web browser and navigate to http://server_ip:3000.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Uptime Kuma on your Fedora Server Latest system.
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!
