Deploying Executable

Copy the executable from the flamenco working-copy across to the RaspPi. The buildx will have created an execs folder and labelled the executables according to their platform type (eg: _arm64).

scp ./execs/linux_arm64/flamenco-manager_arm64 pi@RASP-IP-ADDRESS:/home/pi/flamenco-manager

Ensure it is executable by changing the file permissions…

ssh pi@RASP-IP-ADDRESS
chmod u+x flamenco-manager

Quickly see if it works while logged into the RaspPi by running it from the command line…

./flamenco-manager

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ./flamenco-manager

The Flamenco Manager app will try and launch a browser to http://RASP-IP-ADDRESS:8080/app/ but this will fail in a terminal. You can however navigate to this address and go through the Flamenco Setup Assistant.

If you want to run headless Flamenco Manager, then see next section on using flamenco-manager.yaml configuration to skip the Flamenco Setup Assistant.

See Systemd Service instructions to start Flamenco Manager at startup.
