Help with Self-Hosting Kiri:Moto Web Version on Ubuntu Server

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Hi there,

First of all, thank you for your work on Kiri:Moto – it's a great project!

I'm trying to self-host the web browser version of Kiri:Moto on a bare metal Ubuntu server for local use. I’ve been going through the repository and trying to build the app, but I’m having trouble figuring out the right steps.

I tried opening the /web/kiri folder and working from there, but I wasn’t successful in getting it running. I'm not sure if I'm missing a step in the build or if there's a recommended way to run it for local use.

If anyone has experience with self-hosting Kiri:Moto or has tips on how to get the web version running on a local server, I’d really appreciate the help!

Thanks in advance!

have you tried these steps from the README?

git clone git@github.com:GridSpace/grid-apps.git
cd grid-apps
npm run setup
npm run dev

then open http://localhost:8080/kiri

The installation went through successfully — the issue was that I was using an outdated version of Node.js (v12), while the project requires a more recent version (Node.js v22). After upgrading to the correct version, the setup steps worked perfectly.

Thanks a lot for your help!
