Welcome to our Wiki for Streama v1 of the app!
On this page you will find deployment info (mainly for Linux).
For the FAQs, visit the dedicated FAQs Page.

Up and Running

Here is a video Tutorial of @dularion setting it up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUcbVTrdNv8
Below you can find a step-by-step.

1. install Java

Get and install Java 8 (JDK or JRE). OpenJDK is a preferred JDK.

2. download the .war and create an application.yml

Download the latest war from the releases page, for instance by using the terminal command wget https://github.com/dularion/streama/releases/download/v1.4.2/streama-1.4.2.war into the same directory.

A sample application.yml is avalible at https://github.com/dularion/streama/blob/master/docs/sample_application.yml

Suggestion: use /data/streama for the yml and the war and /data/streama/files for the uploaded files.

3. run!

Run the app using sudo ./streama-[version].war or the failsafe option java -jar streama-[version].war. Once you see the console output
Grails application running at http://localhost:8080 in environment: production
you are set to go! just navigate to localhost:8080 and you will see a login screen (default = username:admin, password:admin), and the program is up and running. Enjoy! :)

4 Next steps

For production-purposes, you should consider running streama as a background-service and using mysql instead of the built-in h2 database, for backuping purposes and scalability.
