Bicimon is a monitoring tool that can be used to monitor network traffic and system metrics. In this tutorial, we will guide you to install Bicimon on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before installing Bicimon, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Before we can start installing Bicimon, we need to make sure that all the necessary dependencies are installed. To do this, run the following command:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y install python3 python3-pip python3-dev python3-venv mongodb git
The above command will update the package list and install Python, PIP, virtual environment, MongoDB, and Git.
Once all the dependencies are installed, we need to clone the Bicimon repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/knrdl/bicimon
This will clone the repository to a directory named bicimon.
We need to create a virtual environment for Bicimon. To do this, navigate to the bicimon directory and run the following commands:
cd bicimon
python3 -m venv .env
This will create a virtual environment inside the .env directory.
To activate the virtual environment, run the following command:
source .env/bin/activate
You should see the command prompt change to (env)user@server:~/bicimon$ indicating that the virtual environment is active.
With the virtual environment active, we can now install the required packages. To do this, run the following command:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
This will install all the packages listed in the requirements.txt file.
With all the dependencies and packages installed, we can now start Bicimon. To do this, run the following command:
./start.sh
This will start Bicimon and it should now be running on your server.
In this tutorial, we have outlined the steps to install Bicimon on Ubuntu Server Latest. By following these steps, you should now have Bicimon up and running on your server, ready to monitor network traffic and system metrics. Be sure to customize the configuration to your specific requirements.
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!
