====== Administration Documentation ======

===== First setup =====
When first setting up the Pi I went to make certain that it was updated. So I used the commands:
<code>
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt upgrade 
</code>
saying yes when it asked me if I wanted to use up the space that it needed. After doing this a few times I decided that sense I was going to be constantly updating the Pi why not have it check for updates every week. So I went into root's crontab, done by:
<code>
   sudo crontab -e
</code>
and put into that file:
<code>
0 3 * * 1 apt-get update
30 8 * * 1 apt full-upgrade --yes
</code>
Which basically says that at the start of every week at 3 am check for updates. Then at 3:30 upgrade everything that had an update, with the --yes being the answer for when the command prompts about whether I wish to use up storage for these updates.
I also made certain to change the default password of the admin account on the Pi so that way if/when I make the Pi available to be accessed remotely I do not have anyone getting access to my Pi.
===== Vim =====

After that I proceeded to find and download addon files for the text editor Vim, so that I could have it act like how I am used to Vim being. With custom colour schemes and line numbers. Which I then configured for my personal use in the .vimrc file located in my home directory.

===== Dasm, stella, SDL =====

Then I had to grab Dasm, stella, and SDL for use in my projects for Comporg and Sysprog, respectfully, which was a matter of using the commands:
for Dasm and stella
<code>
   sudo apt-get dasm 
   Sudo apt install
</code>
and for SDL:
<code>
   sudo aptitude install .....
</code>
with the dots being the specific libraries that I needed, like libsdl-image1.2 the SDK image library for SDL version 1.2.

===== Webserver =====
When I went about setting up a webserver for my Pi I did the normal way of
<code>
   sudo apt install apache2 -y
</code>
which grabbed the apache2 onto the Pi allowing me to make a webserver on the Pi. But I wanted to be able to use PHP for making a database down the line so I also went to install php with the command:
<code>
   sudo apt install libapache2-mod-php -y
</code>
which allowed me to now use php when setting using my webserver. I had to get rid of the index.html file and make it into a php file so that the server could recognise it. With this done however it was time to setup a Dokuwiki.

===== Dokuwiki =====
To get Dokuwiki onto the Pi i had to run the simple command of:
<code>
   sudo apt-get install dokuwiki
</code>
which when and found the files for dokuwiki and installed them onto the Pi.
After that it was a matter of going into localhost in a web browser to test it out. After seeing that it worked I went about setting ownership of the page files to me so that I could edit wiki pages from the command line and is what I used in order to have a separate directory for pages. I will discuss other things I did to configure the Dokuwiki that I use here: [[hpc0:dokuwiki|Dokuwiki Documentation]]

===== Steamlink =====
I had an idea that since the video game platform know as Steam had implemented a way for you to stream games off of any computer that is running with your account open. I wondered if I could do something similar with my Pi so that way I could have a very portable device that would allow me to play games anywhere with a good internet connection. After doing some research I found out that the steamlink application that Valve originally made for their "console" was available for free and could run a Pi 3 or newer with Rasbian stretch. Which after checking what Rasbian I had I found that I could run it. In order to get it I had to download directly from one of Valve's servers which was a simple command of:
<code>
   curl -#Of http://media.steampowered.com/steamlink/rpi/steamlin_1.0.7_armhf.deb
</code>
which gave me a package file that I needed to install on to my device which was a matter of using the command:
<code>
   sudo dpkg -i steamlin_1.0.7_armhf.deb
</code>
which proceeded to install steamlink onto my Pi.

===== Misc =====
I have otherwise grabbed a portable version of firefox for I found that the in-built chromium web-browser was eating up a lot of my memory and so I grabbed a web-browser that would not eat as much memory.
