Entrata

Indice

Deploy and operate Aerozine on Debian Buster

First as root:

apt update
apt install cargo libssl-dev pkg-config

Then as unprivileged user:

git clone https://github.com/slogemann1/aerozine
cd aerozine/
cargo build --release
cd
aerozine init -p myCapsule
cd myCaspule/data/
openssl req -x509 -sha256 -nodes -days 3650 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout private.key -out certificate.crt # Fill as you like
openssl pkcs12 -export -out profile.pfx -inkey private.key -in certificate.crt # dont forget the password you choose
cd ..

Edit `server_settings.json` at least at "domain" (should match the certificate CommonName) and "profile_password" (the same you choose before).

Edit `root/index.gmi` with special content.

Start the server:

/home/your-user/aerozine/target/release/aerozine start

And make a connection to `gemini://localhost/` with a gemini client.

you should see the rendered index page.

If you want Aerozine to act like a system daemon, create `/etc/systemd/system/mycapsule.service` file with this content:

[Unit]
Description=Gemini Server
After=network.target
Documentation=https://github.com/slogemann1/aerozine

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/sh -c "cd /path/to/myCapsule ; /path/to/aerozine start"
ExecStop=/bin/kill $MAINPID
PrivateTmp=true
Restart=on-abort
User=youruser
Group=yourgroup

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Test it with

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart mycaspule
systemctl enable mycaspule

Logs:

- /path/to/myCaspule/log.txt
- journalctl -u mycaspule
