Sure thing! Here's a markdown tutorial for installing Alerta on Void Linux:
The first thing you need to do is install the required dependencies. Alerta requires Python 2.7 or 3.5+ and the pip package installer. To install these dependencies, use the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S python3 pip
Once the dependencies are installed, you can install Alerta itself. To do this, run the following command:
sudo pip install alerta-server
This command will download and install Alerta and all of its dependencies.
After installation, you need to configure Alerta by creating a configuration file. Use the following command to create a new configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/alertad.conf
In this file, you can configure various Alerta settings such as database settings, API keys, and email settings. Check the documentation for more information on how to configure Alerta.
Once you have configured Alerta, you can start the Alerta server by running the following command:
alertad
This command will start the Alerta server using the configuration settings you provided.
Finally, you can access the Alerta web user interface in your web browser by navigating to the following URL:
http://localhost:8080
If everything worked correctly, you should see the Alerta dashboard.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Alerta on Void Linux.
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!
