Installing MMBR on Linux


1. Install MMBR

Open a linux terminal. On many window managers, an easy shortcut is to press CTRL + T. Note that a window manager is not required for MMBR.


Enter the following commands to download MMBR via git, enter the directory, create a virtual environment, download the required python modules, and make the startup script executable.

git clone https://github.com/KD9YQK/ham-microblog.git
cd ham-microblog
python -m venv venv
venv\bin\pip install -r requirements.txt
chmod +x daemon.sh
Windows Command Prompt



2. Starting MMBR

Start MMBR by typing ./daemon.sh within the linux terminal, or alternatively you can double-click the file from within a file manager. If everything goes well, you should see an output similar to this image. Open your browser, and goto http://127.0.0.1:5000 to view the MMBR Web GUI.
