Conduit is a lightweight, high-performance, and reliable Rust-based server for tracking online users' presence. The following are the steps to install Conduit on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before installing Conduit, you should update your system packages to ensure that you have up-to-date packages. To do that, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper refresh
Conduit requires some system packages to be installed before you can proceed. To install the required packages, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo zypper install build-essential git cmake openssl-devel pkg-config protobuf-devel
Conduit is primarily written in Rust, so we need a Rust installation. To install Rust on your OpenSUSE Latest system, run the following command:
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
Once Rust is installed, you need to add it to your system path. Run the following command:
source $HOME/.cargo/env
The next step is to clone the Conduit repository from Github using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/conduit-rust/conduit.git
cd conduit
Finally, execute the following command in the terminal to build and install the Conduit server:
cargo build --release
This command will build the Conduit server in the release mode, and you can find the binary in the target/release directory.
If you want to install the binary on your system, run the following command:
sudo cargo install --path .
After installation, it is essential to test if the Conduit server is working correctly. To start the server, run the following command:
conduit-server
Once the server is running, you can verify that it is working by querying the "/ping" endpoint using the following command:
curl http://localhost:8080/ping
If everything is working correctly, you should receive a response with the message "pong."
That's it. You have successfully installed Conduit on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now use this Rust-based server to track your online users' presence.
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!
