Quru Image Server is an open-source image processing server designed for high-volume image processing with low overhead. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to install Quru Image Server on OpenBSD.
To complete this tutorial, you'll need:
We'll start by installing the necessary dependencies for Quru Image Server. Open a terminal on your OpenBSD server and run the following command:
sudo pkg_add jpeg libpng libtiff giflib libwebp libimagequant
This command will install all the required libraries for Quru Image Server.
Next, we'll download and extract the Quru Image Server archive. In your terminal, run the following commands:
wget https://github.com/jaywcjlove/QiS/archive/main.tar.gz
tar -zxvf main.tar.gz
This will download the Quru Image Server archive from the Github repository and extract it into a new directory called "QiS-main".
Now that we have all the dependencies and the Quru Image Server source code, we can build and install the server. Navigate to the newly created directory "QiS-main" and run the following commands:
make
sudo make install
The "make" command will compile the source code and create the necessary binaries, while "sudo make install" will install the binaries in the appropriate directories.
The final step is to configure Quru Image Server. The server is configured using a configuration file located at /etc/qis.conf
. You can configure the server by editing this file with your preferred text editor:
sudo vi /etc/qis.conf
In this file, you can configure the server's port, cache directory, logging options, and more.
Once the server is configured, you can start it with the following command:
sudo qis start
This command will start the Quru Image Server as a daemon process. You can also stop the server with the following command:
sudo qis stop
In this tutorial, we've shown you how to install the Quru Image Server on OpenBSD. Now that the server is installed and running, you can use it to process images at scale.
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!
