   sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0 libgtk-3-0 libgbm-dev libnotify-dev libgconf-2-4 libnss3 libxss1 libasound2 libxtst6 xauth xvfb

2. Install nvm ( version control system for nodejs )

   wget -P /root/ --tries=10 --retry-connrefused --waitretry=60 --no-dns-cache --no-cache  https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/master/install.sh
   bash /root/install.sh

Install and configure components

We will install the Skyline Console service from source code.

1. Git clone the repository from OpenDev (GitHub)

   cd ${HOME}
   git clone https://opendev.org/openstack/skyline-console.git

   Note

   If you meet the following error, you need to run command sudo apt install -y ca-certificates:

   fatal: unable to access 'https://opendev.org/openstack/skyline-sonsole.git/': server certificate verification failed. CAfile: none CRLfile: none

2. Install skyline-console

   cd ${HOME}/skyline-console
   make package
   sudo pip3 install --force-reinstall dist/skyline_console-*.whl

3. Ensure that skyline folders have been created

   sudo mkdir -p /etc/skyline /var/log/skyline

   Note

   Ensure that skyline.yaml file is available in /etc/skyline folder. For more information about skyline.yml, see skyline-settings.

4. Generate nginx configuration file

   skyline-nginx-generator -o /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
