Yes, I can write a tutorial for you. Here it is:
MeTube is an open source YouTube like video sharing website built with PHP and MySQL. The website provides a platform where users can upload, watch, and share videos with others. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MeTube on Manjaro.
Before continuing with this tutorial, make sure you have the following:
First, open the terminal on your Manjaro machine and clone the MeTube code from GitHub.
git clone https://github.com/alexta69/metube.git
Next, create a new database in MySQL for MeTube. You can do this using the following MySQL command:
mysql -u root -p
Then create a new database called metube
.
CREATE DATABASE metube;
Now, you need to edit the MeTube configuration file includes/config.php
. Use your favorite editor to open the file.
sudo nano includes/config.php
In the file, change the database details to match your MySQL setup. Update the following lines with the appropriate values.
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_NAME', 'metube');
define('DB_USER', 'root');
define('DB_PASS', 'root');
Save the changes and exit the editor.
Next, copy the MeTube files to your Apache server document root. The following command should do that.
sudo cp -r metube/* /srv/http
In this step, we need to give read, write and execute permissions to a few directories on the Apache server. Use the following commands to change the permissions.
sudo chmod -R 777 /srv/http/uploads
sudo chmod -R 777 /srv/http/cache
Next, you need to update the Apache virtual host configuration file. Open the file in your favorite editor.
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
Add the following lines at the end of the file to create a new virtual host for MeTube.
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/srv/http"
ServerName yourdomain.com
<Directory "/srv/http">
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Replace yourdomain.com
with your own domain name or the IP address of your Manjaro machine.
Save the changes and exit the editor.
Finally, restart the Apache server for the changes to take effect.
sudo systemctl restart httpd
You have successfully installed MeTube on your Manjaro machine. Now you can upload, watch, and share videos with others. For more information on how to use MeTube, please refer to the documentation on the project's GitHub repository.
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!
