UberGallery is a simple and lightweight web gallery that supports image and video galleries. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install UberGallery on Void Linux.
Before we install UberGallery on our Void Linux machine, we need to make sure that we have all the required packages installed. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S apache php php-gd php-imagick
This command will install Apache, PHP, GD extension for PHP, and Imagick extension for PHP, which are required for UberGallery to function properly.
Next, we need to download the UberGallery package. You can download the latest version of UberGallery from the official website www.ubergallery.net.
Open the terminal and run the following command to download the UberGallery package:
wget https://www.ubergallery.net/download/UberGallery-v2.4.9.zip
This command will download the UberGallery package in ZIP format.
Once the download is complete, we need to extract the ZIP archive to the Apache web server document root folder. Open the terminal and run the following command to extract the ZIP archive:
sudo unzip UberGallery-v2.4.9.zip -d /srv/http/
This command will extract the UberGallery package to the /srv/http/ folder, which is the default document root folder for Apache on Void Linux.
We need to configure Apache to serve the UberGallery website. Open the terminal and run the following command to edit the Apache configuration file:
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
Add the following lines at the end of the Apache configuration file:
Listen 80
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/srv/http/UberGallery"
<Directory "/srv/http/UberGallery">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Save and close the file.
After configuring Apache, we need to restart it to apply the changes. Open the terminal and run the following command to restart Apache:
sudo systemctl restart httpd.service
Now, open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost/. You should see the UberGallery website with the default demo galleries.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed UberGallery on Void Linux. You can now customize it and add your own galleries.
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!
