Galene is a video conferencing platform that is based on WebRTC. It is designed for small to medium sized groups, and focuses on low latency and high quality audio and video. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps of installing Galene on MXLinux Latest.
Before installing Galene, you should ensure that your system is up to date. To do this, open your terminal and enter the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
This will update your system's package database and upgrade any outdated packages.
Galene relies on several dependencies to run. To install these dependencies, run the following command:
sudo apt install git make wget libssl-dev libopus-dev libvpx-dev libavcodec-dev libavutil-dev libavformat-dev libsrtp2-dev libsofia-sip-ua-dev libogg-dev libjson-c-dev libwebsockets-dev libsqlite3-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev
This command will install all the required dependencies for Galene.
Next, we need to clone the Galene repository. To do this, enter the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/jech/galene.git
This will create a new directory named galene in your current working directory.
Once you have cloned the Galene repository, navigate to the galene directory and build Galene by running the following command:
cd galene
make
This will compile and build Galene.
Before running Galene, we need to configure it. To do this, you need to provide a configuration file. Galene comes with a sample configuration file, which can be found in the galene directory. You can copy this sample configuration file to your working directory by running the following command:
cp script/sample-config.toml config.toml
You can then edit this configuration file to suit your needs.
Once you have configured Galene, you can run it by running the following command:
./galene --config=config.toml
This will start Galene, and it will listen on the default port of 8443. You can now access Galene by opening a web browser and navigating to https://<your-server-ip>:8443. You will be prompted to enter your name to join the conference.
That's it! You have successfully installed and configured Galene on MXLinux Latest.
Galene is a powerful video conferencing platform that provides low latency and high quality audio and video. By following these simple steps, you can quickly install and configure Galene on MXLinux Latest.
