ArOZ Online System / aCloud

Personal Cloud Platform with Web Desktop Environment for Raspberry Pi 3B+ or 4B. A place to start cloud music and video streaming, data storage, office work / text processing, 3D printing file previews, Cloud programming IDE and more!

WARNING! THIS SYSTEM IS STILL IN BETA PHRASE.

Getting Started

These instructions will show you how to deploy a copy of ArOZ Online System on your own Raspberry Pi or other low power, Linux running SBCs for community review and testing purposes. Read more on the Full System Documentation.

Docker

Follow the instruction from this repo: https://github.com/Saren-Arterius/aroz-dockerize

Prerequisites

The following packages are required for the system to run on your Linux system.

apache2
libapache2-mod-xsendfile
php libapache2-mod-php php-cli php-common php-mbstring php-gd php xml php-zip
php-mysql (Optional)
libav-tools / ffmpeg (Optional)
samba (Optional)

To install the package above, copy and paste the following lines into your ssh terminal line by line.

#Add the following line if you are using a fresh install of Debian Buster
sudo apt-get install unzip net-tools ntfs-3g dosfstools -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y apache2
sudo apt-get install -y php libapache2-mod-php php-cli php-common php-mbstring php-gd php-xml php-zip 
sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-xsendfile
#The lines below are optional. But it is recommended to install them for future uses
sudo apt-get install php-mysql
#Use libav-tools instead of ffmpeg if you are still using Debian Jessie
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
sudo apt-get install samba

Prebuilt Image File

To install ArOZ Online System to your Raspberry pi, you can use the prebuilt image file for Raspberry Pi 4B / 3B+. You can find the image in the link below:

WORK IN PROGRESS

Manual Installation

ArOZ Online System is only tested to install on Debian Jessie and Debian Buster. Before installing the ArOZ Online System, you need to firstly setup the package settings.

Edit php.ini to increase the max file upload size setting. The php.ini file can usually be found in /etc/php/{php-version}/apache2/php.ini. Change the two lines below as follows:

upload_max_filesize = 2048M
post_max_size = 2048M

If you are a noob and don't want to mess around with the sudoer settings, just edit /etc/sudoers, add the following line at the bottom of the file.

www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/mount, /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g,  /usr/bin/ntfs-3g, /usr/bin/umount, /sbin/halt, /sbin/reboot, /sbin/poweroff, /sbin/ifconfig, /sbin/ip, /sbin/mkfs.ntfs, /sbin/mkfs.vfat

(Only if you are using the system in local area network. Please adjust this to suit your needs if you are planning to access the system through the internet.)

If you are pros and want to have much better control of the system security, add the lines that fits your need according to the selections below.

Allow system to mount and unmount USB drives of your Raspberry Pi

www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/mount, /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g, /usr/bin/umount

Allow system to be powered off via the Web UI

www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/halt, /sbin/reboot, /sbin/poweroff

Allow system to access local area network IP address and WiFi network settings

www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/ifconfig, /sbin/ip

Allow system to format and create new partitions

www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/mkfs.ntfs, /sbin/mkfs.vfat

TO BE ADDED

Edit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, add the following two lines to the bottom of the file

XSendFile on
XSendFilePath /media

Create directory at /media/storage1 and /media/storage2

sudo mkdir /media/storage1 /media/storage2

Next, you need to download and install the ArOZ Online System to your webroot (/var/www/html/). To do so, you can firsly move into the web root with the following command:

cd /var/www/html/

And then download the repo as zip, unzip the "src" folder into /var/www/html and ename "src" to "AOB". You can do this with WinSCP if you are using windows. Or otherwise, you can use git clone command similar to the example below. Make sure you have installed git using sudo apt-get install git before using the git commands.

git clone https://github.com/tobychui/ArOZ-Online-System/
sudo mv ArOZ-Online-System/src ./AOB
sudo rm -rf ./ArOZ-Online-System

sudo mkdir -p "/etc/AOB"
sudo chmod 777 -R "/etc/AOB"
sudo chmod 777 -R ./AOB
sudo chown -R www-data ./

Open your default browser and visit the http://{Raspberry_Pi_IP_Address}/AOB/ and follow the on scren guide for setting up a new user.
