AsmBB is a free and open-source bulletin board software designed for x86 assembly programming community. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install AsmBB on Void Linux.
Before installing AsmBB, you need to install some dependencies using the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S nginx git unzip uwsgi uwsgi-plugin-python3
Next, let's download AsmBB from the official GitHub repository using Git:
git clone https://github.com/asm32u4/asm-bb.git
After the download is complete, enter the AsmBB folder:
cd asm-bb
Now let's run the installation script to set up AsmBB on your server:
sudo ./install.sh -full /usr/share/nginx/html/asmbb
This will install AsmBB in the /usr/share/nginx/html/asmbb
folder.
Now we need to configure Nginx to serve AsmBB to the web. Run the following command to create an Nginx configuration file for AsmBB:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/asmbb.conf
Add the following configuration to the file:
server {
listen 80;
server_name your_domain.com;
access_log /var/log/nginx/asmbb-access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/asmbb-error.log;
location / {
include uwsgi_params;
uwsgi_pass unix:/run/uwsgi/app/asmbb/socket;
uwsgi_read_timeout 300;
}
}
Replace your_domain.com
with your actual domain name.
Now, create a symbolic link to enable the configuration:
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/asmbb.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
Reload Nginx to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl reload nginx
Finally, start AsmBB with the following command:
sudo systemctl start uwsgi
Congratulations, you have successfully installed AsmBB on Void Linux.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install AsmBB on Void Linux. If you encounter any problems during the installation, feel free to refer to the official AsmBB documentation.
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!
