Debian/Ubuntu

Recommendations for a large number of cameras

If you plan to run more than 10 cameras with motion detection enabled, we recommend using PostgreSQL as the database, as it is more performant.

Installation

To install on Debian and its derivatives (Ubuntu, Mint, and others), run the following commands in the terminal:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y ca-certificates curl
sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/keyrings
sudo curl -fsSL https://code.tuna.am/api/packages/yucca/debian/repository.key -o /etc/apt/keyrings/yucca.asc
echo 'deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/yucca.asc] https://code.tuna.am/api/packages/yucca/debian stable main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yucca.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install yucca
Switching between editions

Both editions install the same /opt/yucca/yucca file, so remove the installed package before switching editions — see the "Removal" section below. Your data in /opt/yucca/data and the /opt/yucca/yucca.toml configuration are kept.

Verifying it works

After installation and startup, the WEB interface will be available at http://your-server-ip:9910 . If the interface is unavailable after installation, check the service status and view the server logs:

sudo systemctl status yucca
sudo journalctl -f -u yucca

Update

sudo apt update
sudo apt install yucca

Removal

sudo apt remove yucca
