Run locally

Installing and running XIBLE directly on your computer or server.

Prerequisites

No matter the operating system of your choice, XIBLE has one prerequisite for a local installation. XIBLE runs on top of Node.js and therefore needs Node.js to be installed.

You can refer to the following page for installing Node.js: download. Or perhaps you find a packaged Node.js version more suitable for you.

Be sure to select at least version 12.0.0 of Node.js. Older versions are not supported.

Linux & macOS

After you have installed Node.js (see prerequisites), all you need to do is take advantage of the NPM package to globally install your XIBLE installation;

sudo npm i xible -g --production

Once this is complete, you may start XIBLE the quick-and-easy way;

xible server start

Navigate to http://localhost:9600 to open the XIBLE editor. If you are running XIBLE on a machine other than your localhost, replace localhost with the IP address or DNS name of that machine.

sudo xible service enablesudo xible service start
