Host deployment

Loggie uses Golang to be compiled into binary, and can be deployed to various systems according to needs. Here we provide a reference for deploying Loggie using systemd.

Pre-check

  • Operating System: Linux
  • System Architecture: amd64
  • Distribution supports systemd

The current release only contains binary executables generated by GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64. For other systems and architectures, please cross-compile based on the source code.

Download Binary

VERSION=v1.3.0
mkdir /opt/loggie && curl https://github.com/loggie-io/loggie/releases/download/${VERSION}/loggie-linux-amd64 -o /opt/loggie/loggie && chmod +x /opt/loggie/loggie

Please replace <VERSION> above with the specific version number.
