Tutorial Install Mylar3 Ubuntu to download comic books

In this tutorial Mylar3 install Ubuntu. We’re going to install Mylar3 on an Ubuntu system. And then we’re going to configure Mylar3 to download the comic books from the newsgroups.

Mylar3 install requirements

Chances are that git, is already installed. But just to be sure, execute the command below.

sudo apt-get install git-core

Now install Python and Cherrypy. If that hasn’t been done yet.

sudo apt-get install python python-cherrypy git -y

Mylar3 Install Ubuntu

We will now download the beta version. To the folder “.\Mylar” Note, the dot! This ensures that the folder is hidden.

sudo git clone https://github.com/mylar3/mylar3 -b development ./Mylar

Now put the rights on the Mylar folder.

sudo chown username:username -R ./Mylar

Now we are going to start Mylar.

python /opt/Mylar/Mylar.py -d

You can now access Mylar viahttp://your.ip.addres:8090.

Mylar3 installation start automatically Ubuntu

It is very useful if Mylar is started, while starting Ubuntu. So we are going to arrange that.

We’re going to create a startup script. Beware! You have to change the username to your own.

MYLAR_USER=Your Username
MYLAR_HOME=./Mylar
MYLAR_DATA=./Mylar
MYLAR_PORT=8090

sudo nano /etc/default/mylar

Press Ctrl+X no. And then on the Y key. Then press the Enter key.

Copy the startup script to the right place.

sudo cp ./Mylar/init-scripts/ubuntu.init.d /etc/init.d/mylar

Even now, get the rights right.

sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/mylar

Now apply the boot script.

sudo update-rc.d mylar defaults

You can start Mylar now with the following.

sudo service mylar start

You can restart Mylar with the following.

sudo service mylar restart

Or stop.

mylar service stop

You are now done with the startup script. Mylar will now be started automatically when the computer is restarted.

You are now done with the Mylar3 installation on an Ubuntu system. Now mylar3 has yet to be configured.
