How to Install SyncTube on Fedora Server Latest

SyncTube is a self-hosted web application that allows users to synchronize video playback across multiple devices in real-time. In this tutorial, we will explain how to install SyncTube on Fedora Server Latest.

Prerequisites

  • A server running Fedora Server Latest.
  • A web server installed (e.g., Apache, Nginx).
  • A valid domain name pointing to your server IP address.

Step 1: Install Node.js and NPM

Before installing SyncTube, we need to install Node.js and NPM on our Fedora Server. Node.js is a JavaScript runtime that allows us to run JavaScript outside of the web browser.

First, update the package repository and install the required packages with the following command:

sudo dnf update 
sudo dnf install nodejs npm

Step 2: Clone SyncTube Repository

Now, let's clone the SyncTube repository from Github. Open your terminal and navigate to your web server document root using the following command:

cd /var/www/html/

Next, clone the SyncTube repository from Github using the following command:

sudo git clone https://github.com/RblSb/SyncTube.git

Step 3: Install Dependencies

After cloning the SyncTube repository, install its dependencies using the following command:

cd SyncTube
sudo npm install

Step 4: Configure SyncTube

SyncTube comes with a default configuration file located at config.js, which we need to modify according to our web server configuration.

Open the file in a text editor using the following command:

sudo nano config.js

Modify the configuration file according to your web server setup. For example, change the port variable to match the port you want SyncTube to run on.

Step 5: Start SyncTube

Finally, start the SyncTube server using the following command:

sudo nodejs index.js

By default, SyncTube runs on port 8080. You can access it by typing your server's IP address or domain name followed by the port number (e.g., http://example.com:8080) in your web browser.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed SyncTube on your Fedora Server Latest. You can now start using SyncTube to synchronize video playback across multiple devices in real-time.
