How to Install Dnote on Alpine Linux Latest

Dnote is a command-line tool for capturing and organizing technical notes. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to install Dnote on Alpine Linux Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following components:

Step 1: Install Go

Dnote is built in Go, so we need to install Go before we can install Dnote.

To install Go, run the following command:

apk add go

This command will download and install the Go programming language on your system.

Step 2: Download and Install Dnote

To install Dnote, we need to download the binary for Alpine Linux.

wget https://github.com/dnote/dnote/releases/download/v0.8.2/dnote_0.8.2_linux_amd64.tar.gz

Next, extract the downloaded archive:

tar -xzvf dnote_0.8.2_linux_amd64.tar.gz

Move the extracted binary file to /usr/local/bin:

sudo mv dnote /usr/local/bin

To verify that Dnote is installed correctly, run the following command:

dnote --version

This command should output the version of Dnote that you just installed.

Step 3: Configure Dnote

After installing Dnote, you need to configure it by creating a configuration file. The configuration file is used to store your API key, which is required for syncing notes across devices.

To create a configuration file, run the following command:

dnote config

This command will prompt you to input your API key, which you can obtain by creating an account on the Dnote website.

Alternatively, you can set the API key using the -api-key flag:

dnote config -api-key YOUR_API_KEY

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Dnote on Alpine Linux Latest. You can now start using Dnote to capture and organize your technical notes.

If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
