Libervia is a web-based XMPP client that is built on top of the Python library Wokkel and the Slixmpp XMPP client library. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing Libervia on OpenBSD.
Before installing Libervia, you need to ensure that you have the following:
OpenBSD comes with pkg_add package manager pre-installed. Before installing Libervia, you need to ensure that your system is up to date.
To update your system, open a terminal and run the following command:
$ sudo pkg_add -u
This command will update all the packages on your system to their latest versions.
Now that your system is up to date, you can proceed to install Libervia using the following command:
$ sudo pkg_add libervia
This command will download and install the Libervia package along with all its dependencies.
Once the installation is complete, you can start Libervia using the following command:
$ libervia start
This command will start the Libervia server and will output the URL where you can access the web-based XMPP client.
You can access Libervia by opening a web browser and entering the URL shown in the output of the previous command.
Libervia is an easy-to-use web-based XMPP client that runs on top of OpenBSD. With the help of this tutorial, you can install and set up Libervia on your OpenBSD machine with ease.
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!
