Sure, here is a tutorial on how to install Medusa on Manjaro in markdown format:
Medusa is a Python-based media manager that allows you to automatically download and organize TV shows and movies from various sources. In this tutorial, we will walk through the steps to install Medusa on Manjaro Linux.
Before installing Medusa, we need to install some dependencies that are required for running it. Open a terminal window and run the following command:
sudo pacman -S python python-pip git openssl libxslt zlib libffi
This command will install Python, pip, Git, OpenSSL, libxslt, zlib, and libffi, which are the required dependencies for Medusa.
Now that we have installed the dependencies, we can proceed to install Medusa. Open a terminal window and run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/pymedusa/Medusa.git
cd Medusa
sudo pip install -r requirements.txt
The first command will clone Medusa's source code from the official GitHub repository, while the second command will change the terminal's working directory to the cloned source code directory. The third command will install all the required Python dependencies using pip.
After the installation process is completed, we need to configure Medusa by creating a configuration file. Run the following command to do so:
cp config.example.ini config.ini
This command will create a copy of the default configuration file, which we will use to configure Medusa's settings.
Next, we need to edit the configuration file to add our media sources and specify the download and storage locations. Run the following command to open the configuration file in a text editor:
nano config.ini
In this file, you can set up your media sources, quality profiles, providers, and other configurations.
Once you've configured Medusa to your liking, you can start the server by running the following command:
python Medusa.py
This will start the Medusa server, and you can access it by opening your web browser and going to http://localhost:8081. From here, you can add TV shows and movies to your library, monitor the download progress, and manage your media files.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Medusa on your Manjaro 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!
