### How to Self Host and Install Robust IRC on Ubuntu Server

tutorials

Robust Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a decentralized and fault-tolerant IRC network that distributes IRC servers across multiple servers to maintain service, even if some of the servers go offline. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Robust IRC on an Ubuntu Server.

**Prerequisites**

Before starting the installation process, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:

-   Ubuntu Server installed on your system
-   Access to the root user account or a user account with sudo privileges

**Step 1: Update Your System**

The first step is to update your system's package list and upgrade any installed packages to their latest versions.

> sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade

**Step 2: Install Dependencies**

Robust IRC requires several packages to be installed on your system before it can be installed. Run the following command to install these dependencies:

> sudo apt install curl gcc make git zlib1g-dev libssl-dev

**Step 3: Install Robust IRC**

Now you can download the latest version of Robust IRC from its official website.

> curl -O https://robustirc.net/static/dist/robustirc-latest.tar.gz

Once the download is complete, extract the downloaded file using the following command:

> tar -xf robustirc-latest.tar.gz

Navigate to the `robustirc` directory and run the `make` command to build the Robust IRC binaries.

> cd robustirc make

This command will compile the Robust IRC server and generate multiple binaries used to run and manage Robust IRC.

**Step 4: Run Robust IRC**

After compiling the Robust IRC server, you can start the server using the following command:

> ./start.sh

This will start the Robust IRC server and print its log messages to the console. If you want to run the Robust IRC server in the background, use the following command:

> ./start.sh -d

This command will start the Robust IRC server as a daemon process and print its process ID (PID) to the console.

**Conclusion**

In this tutorial, you learned how to install Robust IRC on an Ubuntu Server. After following these steps, you should have a running Robust IRC server that can distribute its IRC servers across multiple nodes to maintain service, even if some of the servers go offline.
