WebVirtCloud is a web interface for managing KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) instances on Linux. In this guide, we'll walk through the steps to install WebVirtCloud on Ubuntu 20.04.

Step 1: Update Your System

Before starting the installation, ensure your system is up to date. Open your terminal and run:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Step 2: Install Required Dependencies

Install necessary packages:

sudo apt install git python3 python3-pip python3-requests python3-flask -y

Step 3: Clone the WebVirtCloud Repository

Clone the WebVirtCloud repository from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/retspen/webvirtcloud.git

Step 4: Configure WebVirtCloud

Navigate to the cloned directory:

cd webvirtcloud

Copy the configuration file:

cp webvirtcloud/settings.py.example webvirtcloud/settings.py

Edit the settings.py file to configure your KVM connection and other settings:

nano webvirtcloud/settings.py

Step 5: Install and Configure Gunicorn

Install Gunicorn:

pip3 install gunicorn

Run the application with Gunicorn:

gunicorn -w 4 -b 0.0.0.0:8000 webvirtcloud:app

Step 6: Set Up Nginx as a Reverse Proxy (Optional)

If you want to set up Nginx as a reverse proxy, install Nginx:

sudo apt install nginx -y

Configure Nginx to serve the WebVirtCloud application:

sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/webvirtcloud

Insert the following configuration:

server {
        listen 80;
        server_name your_domain_or_IP;

        location / {
            proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
