SRS or Simple Realtime Server is a streaming media server designed for building live streaming platforms. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install SRS on Manjaro.
Before installing any new packages, it is recommended to update your system with the latest packages. To update your Manjaro system, open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
SRS requires several packages to be installed before installing it. Run the following command to install these packages:
sudo pacman -S git gcc make python python-setuptools python-pip
Now that we have installed the required packages, let's clone the SRS repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/ossrs/srs.git
Change the working directory to the SRS folder by running the following command:
cd srs/trunk
Build and install SRS by running the following command:
sudo make && sudo make install
This will take some time to complete.
To verify that SRS is installed correctly, run the following command:
sudo srs -v
This command will display the SRS version you have installed on your system.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed SRS on Manjaro. You can now use SRS for building live streaming platforms.
