Open Streaming Platform is a free, open-source video streaming platform that allows you to host and stream your own videos. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Open Streaming Platform on Kali Linux Latest.
Before you start the installation, you need to have some prerequisites installed on your Kali Linux machine:
First, you need to install the Docker Engine on your Kali Linux machine. Follow the instructions below to install it:
Open the terminal and update the package list by running the following command:
sudo apt update
Install required packages by running the following command:
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg-agent software-properties-common
Add the Docker GPG key using the following command:
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
Add the Docker repository to your system using the following command:
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
Update the package list by running the following command:
sudo apt update
Finally, install the Docker package by running the following command:
sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
Docker Engine is now installed on your Kali Linux machine.
After installing Docker Engine, the next step is installing docker-compose. You can do that by following these steps:
Download the latest version of docker-compose with the following command:
sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.28.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m) -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
Note: This command will download the latest release of docker-compose which is version 1.28.2. You can check for the latest version by visiting the docker-compose release page.
Once the download is complete, you need to make the docker-compose binary executable with the following command:
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
Docker-compose is now installed on your Kali Linux machine.
Now that we’ve installed Docker Engine and Docker Compose, it’s time to clone the Open Streaming Platform project from GitHub.
Open the terminal and navigate to the directory where you want to clone the Open Streaming Platform project.
Run the following command to clone the Open Streaming platform project from GitHub:
git clone https://github.com/OpenStreamingPlatform/openstreamingplatform.git
Once the download is complete, navigate to the project directory:
cd openstreamingplatform
Now, it’s time to build and run the Open Streaming Platform docker image:
Build Open Streaming Platform docker image by running the following command:
docker-compose build
This command will take some time to build the Open Streaming Platform docker image.
Run Open Streaming Platform by running the following command:
docker-compose up -d
-d flag will run the container in detached mode, which means the container will run in the background.
Finally, you need to access the Open Streaming Platform on your web browser:
Open your web browser and navigate to the following URL:
http://localhost:3000
The Open Streaming Platform login page will appear. Enter the default login credentials:
Email: admin@openstreamingplatform.com
Password: Password1
After login, you can manage your Open Streaming Platform instance and start streaming your own videos.
In this tutorial, we’ve guided you through the installation process of Open Streaming Platform on Kali Linux Latest. Open Streaming Platform is a powerful open-source video streaming platform that you can use to host and stream your own videos.
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!
