This tutorial will guide you through the steps required to install Swift, which is from http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/ on Alpine Linux Latest.
Before we proceed with the installation, you need to make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to install the dependencies required by Swift. We can do this by running the following command:
sudo apk add python3 python3-dev libffi-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev git
After running the above command, wait for the installation to complete.
The next step is to download and install Swift. We can do this by cloning the Swift repository, and then building it.
git clone https://github.com/openstack/swift.git
cd swift
sudo python3 setup.py install
After running the above command, wait for the installation to complete.
To verify that Swift has been installed successfully, you can run the following command:
swift-object-info
If Swift has been installed correctly, you should see the output of the swift-object-info command.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Swift on Alpine Linux Latest. The installation process is relatively simple, and if you follow the steps above, you should have a working installation of Swift in no time.
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!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
