How to Install MiAOU on Fedora CoreOS Latest

MiAOU is a web-based chat application that can be installed on Fedora CoreOS Latest. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install MiAOU on Fedora CoreOS Latest.

Before You Begin

Before you begin the installation process of MiAOU, make sure that you have the following:

• A Fedora CoreOS Latest installed
• A root user access or a user with sudo privileges
• A web browser

Step 1: Install prerequisites

MiAOU requires several packages to be installed before installing it. To install these prerequisites, run the following command:

sudo dnf install git nodejs npm nginx

Step 2: Clone the MiAOU repository

Next, clone the MiAOU repository using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Canop/miaou.git

Step 3: Install MiAOU

Change the directory to the cloned repository using the following command:

cd miaou

Then, install the MiAOU dependencies and start the application using the following command:

npm install
npm run start

The application will now start running on http://localhost:8080.

Step 4: Configure Nginx

By default, the MiAOU application runs on port 8080. To access the application through a regular HTTP server, we need to configure Nginx.

Create a new Nginx configuration file /etc/nginx/conf.d/miaou.conf using the following command:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/miaou.conf

Add the following configuration to the file:

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
    }
}

Save and exit the file.

Step 5: Restart Nginx

After configuring Nginx, restart the Nginx service to apply the changes using the following command:

sudo systemctl restart nginx

Step 6: Access MiAOU

Finally, open your web browser and go to http://localhost to access the MiAOU web application.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured MiAOU on your Fedora CoreOS Latest.
