Linux Dash does not provide any security or authentication features.
It is strongly recommended that all Linux Dash installations be protected via a security measure of your choice.
Linux Dash can be run in: Node.js, PHP, Go, or Python.
* Node.js is the recommended platform since it has native support for websockets and fast I/O.
First, navigate to the linux-dash folder you downloaded or cloned.
Then, refer to the section for your preferred platform:
Install NPM dependencies
npm install
Start Linux Dash
node server/
Default port for Linux Dash is 80. You may change this with the LINUX_DASH_SERVER_PORT environment variable (eg. LINUX_DASH_SERVER_PORT=8080 node server) or editing the server/index.js on line 9
- Make sure you have the
exec,shell_exec, andescapeshellargfunctions enabled - Restart your web server (Apache, nginx, etc.)
- For PHP + Apache setup follow the Digital Ocean tutorial.
- For help with nginx setup, see this gist by @sergeifilippov.
Go to the linux-dash/server folder and run
go run index.go
To build a binary, run go build && ./server -h. See @tehbilly's notes here for binary usage options
Run ./python-server.py will run a server on port 80 which is the default. You can provide a specific port via the --port flag.
For help with general setup and configuration issues please use the Linux Dash Gitter chat room.
