This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing NextCloudPi on Void Linux. NextCloudPi is a self-hosted file sync and share server that provides you with a similar experience to that of a public cloud, but with the added privacy and security of being hosted on your own server.
Before continuing with the installation, make sure that you have the following prerequisites installed on your machine:
git clone https://github.com/nextcloud/nextcloudpi.git
cd nextcloudpi
sudo ./install.sh
The installation script will prompt you to confirm installation, if you accept you will be prompted to select an installation mode. Choose the mode that suits your need and hit the Enter key.
The installer will download, install and configure all the required packages.
After the installation is finished, NextCloudPi should be accessible via your web browser at http://localhost or http://<your-IP-address>. If you want to access it remotely, make sure that you have set up your router to forward port 80 to your NextCloudPi server's IP address.
You will be prompted to create an admin account and password. Create the account and password, then click on the finish button.
Now you can start using NextCloudPi. If you need to customize or modify the settings, you can access the NCP web interface by typing https://<your-IP-address>:4443 in your web browser.
In this tutorial, we have learned how to install NextCloudPi on Void Linux. You should now have a working NextCloudPi instance on your machine. You can start using it as a self-hosted file sync and share server.
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!
