Install "Lomorage Photo Assistant" on Fedora

Currently we only support x86/AMD64 Fedora (current stable release).

1. Enable RPM Fusion

ffmpeg (needed for video processing) isn't in Fedora's base repos due to licensing, so RPM Fusion needs to be enabled first:

sudo dnf install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm

2. Add lomoware source

sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/lomoware.repo > /dev/null <<'EOF'
[lomoware-fedora]
name=Lomoware Fedora Repository
baseurl=https://lomoware.lomorage.com/rpm/fedora
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://lomoware.lomorage.com/rpm/fedora/repodata/repomd.xml.key
EOF

3. Install Lomorage

Unlike Debian/Ubuntu, lomo-vips isn't a separate package on Fedora -- vips is available directly from Fedora's own repos and pulled in automatically.

sudo dnf install lomo-backend -y

Make sure the user can sudo without password, if not, execute the following command to add it:

echo "$USER ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/$USER

4. Configuration parameter customization

User can use environment variable in "/opt/lomorage/etc/environment" to control configuration parameter as below. You can change based on your own setup.

4.1 Change mount directory

You may need to specify the mount directory if the USB drive is not mounted in "/media" directory.

To specify the mount directory to be "/media/pi", add environment variable LOMOD_MOUNT_DIR=/media/pi in /opt/lomorage/etc/environment, such as

echo "LOMOD_MOUNT_DIR=/media/pi" | tee -a /opt/lomorage/etc/environment

this parameter should be the directory mount, not the sub-directory

Make sure the user has the r/w permission for above mount directory, this parameter should be the parent directory mounted, for example if it's mounted as "/media/pi/disk0", then you should use "/media/pi/".

4.2 HTTP Listen Port

Lomod listens on port 8000 by default. If it is conflict and you want to specify own listen port, you can add environment variable LOMOD_PORT_HTTP in /opt/lomorage/etc/environment. For example,

echo "LOMOD_PORT_HTTP=8888" | tee -a /opt/lomorage/etc/environment

Another option is cp /lib/systemd/system/lomod.service /etc/systemd/system/lomod.service and then edit "/etc/systemd/system/lomod.service" and change "ExecStart" directly to specify the parameters used (run /opt/lomorage/bin/lomod -h to check the parameters), and run sudo systemctl daemon-reload, then it will use "/etc/systemd/system/lomod.service" instead. "/lib/systemd/system/lomod.service" is expected to be overwritten when upgrade.

5. Run

Restart "Lomorage Photo Assistant":

sudo systemctl restart lomod
