Manjaro (pamac/AUR)

Please see teh Arch Linux page for a description of the difference between olivetin-bin and olivetin in AUR. This page assumes you want to compile from source (olivetin package).

PATH=$PATH:~/go/bin/
pamac install buf
pamac install olivetin
sudo mkdir -p /etc/OliveTin/custom-webui/themes/
sudo mkdir -p /etc/OliveTin/entities/

Post installation

You will need to write a basic configuration file before OliveTin will startup.

Create the following basic config file at /etc/OliveTin/config.yaml with the following contents;

The most simple config.yaml file.
actions:
  - title: "Hello world!"
    shell: echo 'Hello World!'

Now that you have a configuration file, and OliveTin is installed, start it;

Start the service (only needed once)
user@host: systemctl enable --now OliveTin

If you are running a firewall on your server, like firewalld, you will need to open port 1337;

user@host: firewall-cmd --add-port 1337/tcp --permanent
user@host: firewall-cmd --reload

You should be able to browse to http://yourserver:1337 (or similar) to get to the web interface.

If you see the OliveTin page popup in your browser, you are good to go! Here are some helpful next steps;

Troubleshooting systemd installations

If you are having problems, you can check if OliveTin is running like this;

user@host: systemctl status OliveTin

If the service has failed, scroll through the logs;

user@host: journalctl -eu OliveTin
