SonoBus to start automatically on a Linux Ubuntu system without a graphical interface

estudacara

Hello, my friends!

I would like to know if it is possible to configure SonoBus to start automatically on a Linux Ubuntu system without a graphical interface.

To give an example, I have one computer with Linux Ubuntu 24 (without a graphical interface) equipped with a headset and a microphone, and another computer with Linux Ubuntu 24 (also without a graphical interface), also with a microphone and headset.

Both computers need to communicate with each other.

I want the system to automatically load all settings and join the conversation group upon startup, without manual intervention.

If the connection is not established immediately, the system should keep attempting to connect.

I have limited knowledge about SonoBus and would like guidance on whether it can meet this requirement and how to configure it properly.

It would be nice to have a commandline version but there isn't one, as it seems.

If there is a command line interface, I don't see any documentation of it.

I don't use SonoBus but looks like you can run SonoBus headless with passing a -q parameter and a setup file:

https://github.com/sonosaurus/sonobus/issues/109

You can put that command in /etc/rc.local to get it to start at boot.

Score! Great find. 😎
I think imma try that out as a science experiment.

It seems my question is common among many here. I will test this GIT.

Thank you very much, everyone!

If anyone has another suggestion, it will make many people happy.
