Meteor on ARM (UDOO, Raspberry, ...) current stable: 1.1.0.2

Great work Tom!

I have a bananaPi . Is there any way i can use your codebase for it ?

Hi, if you use a debian based distro like Lubuntu or Bananian ( http://www.lemaker.org/portal.php?mod=list&catid=4 ) you should be able to just simple follow the guide for installation from my tumblr blog. There is nothing different on a Banana so that you can use the Meteor unversal fork on that as well.

To get Ubuntu core on Banana have a look at: ( http://www.lemaker.org/thread-3007-1-1.html )

Is there any plan to support Meteor 1.2?

Hi Maxime ( @mquandalle )

yes, as soon as MDG will deliver release 1.2 I will update the universal fork. I have already tested once the changes to release rc-4 which was pretty successful.

Cheers, Tom

Woah, it’s great that it’s already working for 1.2 release candidate. I don’t know much about the work required to port a Meteor application to an ARM architecture, I just asked this question because I would like to deliver Wekan on ARM servers such as the Raspberry or Scaleway, and I use Meteor 1.2. I’ll try that once it gets ready, thank you for making it possible :slight_smile:

Hi Maxime ( @mquandalle )

there is normally “no” work to port your app on the ARM architecture. If you only use meteor functionality and some packages it runs out of the box. Sometimes the package developer has not uploaded the package for ARM than you have to get the package from github and build it within your app.

If you need some really special conditions like NPMs without binary support on ARM than it might get a bit more difficult – but I had none of those yet.

So, my expectation (as have a short view on your sources) is that it won’t take much more time than checkout and build.

Cheers,
Tom
