Prerequisites
PMultibot is a Node.js-based application and requires a server (VPS or Dedicated) to operate. Shared hosting environments are not suitable for running PMultibot.
Since PMultibot operates on Node.js, it demands more resources than typical websites. This guide provides essential details for running PMultibot effectively.
Note: All of PMultibot's documentation is designed for Ubuntu 20-based Linux servers. We currently do not offer guides for Windows. For optimal performance, we highly recommend using an Ubuntu 20-based Linux server.
What do you need?
To run PMultibot using our installation guide, you should have the following:
- Server: A VPS or Dedicated machine (Ubuntu is preferred)
- Domain Name: A domain name (e.g.,
projectphil.co.uk) to make your website publicly accessible - Payment Processor: A PayPal Business or Stripe account to handle transactions
- Discord Account: To use for login methods
System Requirements
Here are the minimum and recommended specifications for hosting PMultibot:
| Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|
| OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Processor: 1 CPU Core Memory: 2GB Storage: 25GB | OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Processor: 3 CPU Cores Memory: 6GB Storage: 50GB |
These requirements may vary based on file sizes, traffic, and overall resource usage.
