Sovereign is a server provisioning and configuration management tool that allows you to easily set up and manage a variety of services on your own server. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Sovereign on Void Linux.
Before you begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to install the required dependencies for Sovereign. Run the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S -y python3 python3-pip python3-dev gcc libffi-dev openssl-dev
This command installs Python 3, pip3, development headers, and some required libraries.
Next, you will need to clone the Sovereign repository from Github. Run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/sovereign/sovereign.git
This will clone the Sovereign repository to your current directory.
Before running the Sovereign installation script, you will need to install some required Python packages. Navigate to the cloned Sovereign directory and run the following command:
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
This command installs all the required Python packages for Sovereign.
Now you are ready to run the Sovereign installation script. Navigate to the cloned Sovereign directory and run the following command:
./setup.sh
This will run the installation script and prompt you for various information such as domain names, IP addresses, and passwords. Follow the prompts to complete the installation.
After the installation is complete, you can verify that Sovereign is installed and working correctly by running the following command:
sudo supervisorctl status
This command will show you the status of all the services that Sovereign has set up. If all the services are running without errors, then Sovereign is successfully installed on your server.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Sovereign on Void Linux. You can now use Sovereign to manage and provision various services on your 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!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
