Installing on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Fedora, CentOS and similar

These instructions apply to any RPM-based distribution with systemd.

RPM binary packages exist to simplify the installation of Yggdrasil. These will also work on any other RPM-based distribution.

Install RPM package from COPR repository

There's a Fedora COPR repository available, which provides recent versions of Yggdrasil - not only for Fedora, but also for CentOS/RHEL!

Fedora

Installation on Fedora is easy as:

dnf copr enable leisteth/yggdrasil
dnf install yggdrasil

... and you're ready to go!

CentOS / RHEL

Paste the following into a new file /etc/yum.repos.d/yggdrasil.repo:

[leisteth-yggdrasil]
name=Copr repo for yggdrasil owned by leisteth
baseurl=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/leisteth/yggdrasil/epel-7-$basearch/
type=rpm-md
skip_if_unavailable=True
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/leisteth/yggdrasil/pubkey.gpg
repo_gpgcheck=0
enabled=1
enabled_metadata=1

Don't forget to change the baseurl according to your RHEL/CentOS version! In the config above, version 7 is used.

Install yggdrasil:

yum update
yum install yggdrasil

Visit our Builds page and download the relevant .rpm file, then install it on your system:

sudo groupadd --system yggdrasil
sudo rpm -i yggdrasil...rpm

Configuration will be generated automatically into /etc/yggdrasil.conf when the package is installed, and the Yggdrasil service will automatically be installed into systemd and started.

Please note: By using this installation method, you won't receive (security-/) updates for Yggdrasil!

Making configuration changes

Modify the /etc/yggdrasil.conf file and then either reload the config:

systemctl reload yggdrasil

... or restart the Yggdrasil daemon altogether:

systemctl restart yggdrasil

After installation

Read the Linux platform page page for further information about Linux platform support.
