Tuber is a self-hosted video chat application that uses WebRTC. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Tuber on the latest version of POP! OS.
Before proceeding with the installation of Tuber, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
Follow the steps below to install Tuber on your POP! OS:
Open the terminal and install Docker CE using the following command:
sudo apt install docker.io
If Docker is already installed, you can skip this step.
Create a new directory for Tuber using the following command:
mkdir tuber
Change the directory using the following command:
cd tuber
Clone the Tuber repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/trailofbits/tuber.git
Open the docker-compose.yml file using a text editor:
nano docker-compose.yml
In the file, update the TUBER_DOMAIN environment variable to your domain name:
environment:
TUBER_DOMAIN: your_domain_name.com
Save and close the file.
Start the Tuber application using the following command:
sudo docker-compose up -d
Once the application is started, open your web browser and go to your domain name (e.g. http://your_domain_name.com). You should see the Tuber application running.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Tuber on POP! OS. You can now use it to host your own video chat application.
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!
