Reduc.io is a Redux Store enhancer for I/O (input/output) functions, like fetch, WebSocket or WebRTC.
In this tutorial, we will cover the steps to install reduc.io on Ubuntu Server (the latest version).
You should have a basic understanding of Ubuntu Server and have root privileges to run the commands in this tutorial.
Before proceeding with reduc.io installation, make sure that your Ubuntu Server is up to date. To do so, run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
Reduc.io requires Node.js (version 0.10 or later) and NPM (version 2.0 or later). To install Node.js and NPM on your Ubuntu Server, run the following commands:
sudo apt install nodejs
sudo apt install npm
To verify the installation, run the following commands:
nodejs -v
npm -v
Next, we need to clone the reduc.io GitHub repository. To do so, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/ziyasal/reducio.git
Once you have cloned the GitHub repository, navigate to the reduc.io directory and install the dependencies by running the following command:
cd reduc.io
npm install
To test if reduc.io is installed correctly and working properly, run the following command:
npm test
If the test suite runs without any issues, it means reduc.io is installed and working properly.
In this tutorial, we covered the steps to install reduc.io on Ubuntu Server. We started by updating the server, followed by installing Node.js and NPM. We then cloned the reduc.io GitHub repository, installed its dependencies, and finally tested if it is working correctly.
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!
