In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Asciinema on Fedora Server using GitHub.
To install Asciinema on Fedora Server, you must have:
Before installing Asciinema, we must install its dependencies. To do so, open your terminal and run the following command:
sudo dnf install python3 python3-setuptools python3-cffi python3-psycopg2 postgresql-devel gcc
This command will install the required packages for Asciinema to function properly.
Next, we need to clone the Asciinema server repository from GitHub. To do so, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/asciinema/asciinema-server.git
This command will download the Asciinema server repository to your local machine.
Move into the Asciinema server directory using the following command:
cd asciinema-server
Once inside the directory, install Asciinema server using the following command:
sudo make install
This command will install the Asciinema server, along with all the required dependencies.
After installing the Asciinema server, you can start it using the following command:
sudo systemctl start asciinema-server
This command will start the Asciinema server as a system service.
The final step is to configure the Asciinema server. You can use the default configuration file located at /etc/asciinema/asciinema.cfg, or create your own by copying the default configuration file to a new location, and adjusting the settings as needed.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Asciinema server on Fedora Server using GitHub. You can now use Asciinema to record and share terminal sessions, or use its JSON API to integrate Asciinema into your own applications.
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!
