How to Install Alltube on Windows 10

Alltube is an open source web application designed for searching and streaming videos from multiple platforms such as YouTube, Vimeo, and Dailymotion. It is built using the Django framework and can be installed on various operating systems including Windows. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install Alltube on Windows 10.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure that your Windows 10 system is set up with the following:

Step 1: Clone Alltube from GitHub

First, open a command prompt and go to the directory where you want to store the Alltube source code. Then, clone Alltube's GitHub repository using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Rudloff/alltube.git

This will download the source code from the GitHub repository and store it in the folder named "alltube".

Step 2: Install dependencies

Next, navigate to the "alltube" folder and install the dependencies using the following command:

pip install -r requirements.txt

This command installs all the necessary packages and modules needed for Alltube to run.

Step 3: Configure Alltube

Now we need to create the configuration file for Alltube. Navigate to the "alltube" folder and create a new file named "local_settings.py". Add the following configuration to this file:

SECRET_KEY = 'your_secret_key'

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',
        'NAME': 'db.sqlite3',
    }
}

DEBUG = True

ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['*']

Replace 'your_secret_key' with your own randomly generated secret key. You can use this website to generate a key - https://djecrety.ir/.

Step 4: Create the database

Alltube uses a SQLite database by default. To create the database, run the following command:

python manage.py migrate

This command creates the database and applies all the necessary migrations.

Step 5: Run Alltube

Finally, we're ready to run Alltube. Use the following command from the "alltube" folder:

python manage.py runserver

This will start the development server for Alltube. Open your web browser and go to http://localhost:8000 to access the Alltube application.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Alltube on your Windows 10 system. You can now search and stream videos from multiple platforms using this open-source web application.

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!
