Introduction to Actor Server
[block:api-header] { "type": "basic", "title": "Automatic Install for Ubuntu 14.04" } [/block] You can use following script to install Actor Server and it's dependencies: [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": "bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/actorapp/actor-bootstrap/master/server/install-on-ubuntu.sh)", "language": "shell" } ] } [/block] [block:callout] { "type": "warning", "title": "You still need to configure it!", "body": "You still need to configure Actor Server after installation complete in order to make it work.\nConfiguration described in section below." } [/block] After installation complete, you will be able to manage Actor Server as other services in Ubuntu: [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": "sudo service actor status # check actor server status\nsudo service actor start # start actor server\nsudo service actor stop # stop actor server\nsudo service actor restart # check actor server status\n", "language": "shell" } ] } [/block] When new release of Actor Server is out you can get update following way: [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": "sudo apt-get update\nsudo apt-get install --only-upgrade actor", "language": "shell" } ] } [/block] [block:api-header] { "type": "basic", "title": "Manual Install for any GNU/Linux" } [/block] If you are not running Ubuntu or want to perform manual installation follow next steps: # Step 1: Download and install Actor Server [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": "wget https://github.com/actorapp/actor-platform/releases/download/server/v<version>/actor-<version>.zip\nunzip actor-<version>.zip\nln -snf actor-<version> actor\ncd actor", "language": "shell", "name": "Generic Linux" }, { "code": "echo \"deb https://dl.bintray.com/actor/ubuntu trusty main\" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list\nsudo apt-get update\nsudo apt-get install actor", "language": "shell", "name": "Ubuntu" } ] } [/block] # Step 2: Run Actor Server in background You can use `nohup` to run server in background, so process won't stop on ssh session termination [block:code] { "codes": [ { "code": "nohup bin/actor", "language": "text" } ] } [/block] [block:api-header] { "type": "basic", "title": "Server configuration" } [/block] If you installed Actor Server via auto install script, or as debian package, your main configuration file is `/etc/actor/server.conf`.
