Installing

Install using All-in-one (AIO) system packages (DEB/RPM)

Jerakia 1.2+ ships as a completely self contained system package available on Debian, Ubuntu and Redhat/CentOS based systems. This is the recommended installation method for users wanting to run Jerakia Server and connect to Jerakia from other tools using the API. We use Packager.io for automated package building and repo hosting.

There are two repositories available, testing contains experimental and pre-releases and should never be used in production, these are for people wishing to test the latest features of Jerakia before they are released. The stable repo contains official releases.
