In this tutorial, we will be installing Oddworks on Ubuntu Server Latest. Oddworks is a powerful open-source video platform that will enable you to manage video content and deliver it to a variety of devices.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
The first step in installing Oddworks is to clone the repository from GitLab. To do this, follow these steps:
Open a terminal window on your Ubuntu Server.
Navigate to the directory where you want to clone the Oddworks repository.
Type the following command:
git clone https://gitlab.com/oddnetworks/oddworks/core.git
This will clone the Oddworks repository to your local machine.
Next, we need to install the dependencies for Oddworks. To do this, follow these steps:
Navigate to the directory where the Oddworks repository was cloned in the previous step.
Type the following command to install dependencies:
npm install
This command will install all the required modules for Oddworks.
Once the dependencies have been installed, we can start the server. To do this, follow these steps:
Navigate to the directory where the Oddworks repository was cloned in the previous step.
Type the following command to start the server:
npm run start
This command will start the server and you should see a message stating that the server is listening on a specific port.
To verify that the server is working, open a web browser and navigate to the following URL:
http://localhost:<port>
Replace port with the port number specified in the message when the server was started. If the server is running correctly, you should see a page indicating that Oddworks is running.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Oddworks on your Ubuntu Server Latest machine. You can now start managing your video content and delivering it to a wide range of devices.
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!
