# Testing LibreTime with Canonical's Multipass
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Ever wanted to test out LibreTime but didn't want to tango with
|
||
|
|
Virturalbox, Vagrent, or Docker?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Canonical released [Multipass](https://multipass.run), a tool for setting up Ubuntu VMs with cloud-init files in a snap.
|
||
|
|
Multipass is available for Windows and macOS, as well as Linux OSes that support snaps.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Similar to Docker, Multipass works through a CLI. To use, clone this repo and then open a Terminal
|
||
|
|
(or Command Prompt) inside the `libretime` folder and run
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
multipass launch bionic -n ltTEST --cloud-init libretimeTest.yaml # to launch VM
|
||
|
|
multipass shell ltTEST # to enter VM's shell
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And that's it! At the moment, Multipass isn't patient enough for an automated install,
|
||
|
|
so after you enter the shell for the first time, you will still need to run the install script for LibreTime.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
sudo ./libretime/install -fiap
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
sudo service airtime-liquidsoap start
|
||
|
|
sudo service airtime-playout start
|
||
|
|
sudo service airtime-celery start
|
||
|
|
sudo service airtime_analyzer start
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The IP address of your new VM can be found by running `multipass list`.
|
||
|
|
Copy and paste it into your web browser to access the LibreTime interface.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can stop the VM with `multipass stop ltTEST` and restart with `multipass start ltTEST`.
|
||
|
|
If you want to delete the image and start again, run `multipass delete ltTEST && multipass purge`.
|
||
|
|
|
||

### Cloud-init options in libretimeTest.yaml
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You may wish to change the below fields as per your location.
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
timezone: America/New York # change as needed
|
||
|
|
ntp:
|
||
|
|
pools: ['north-america.pool.ntp.org']
|
||
|
|
servers: ['0.north-america.pool.ntp.org', '0.pool.ntp.org']
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you are running your forked repo of LibreTime for testing purposes,
|
||
|
|
modify the URL on this line:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
runcmd:
|
||
|
|
- cd / && git clone https://github.com/LibreTime/libretime.git
|
||
|
|
```
