In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Wayback on Alpine Linux Latest. Wayback is a web archiving system that allows users to browse and search web archives. It is available on Github and can be installed on various platforms with different operating systems.
Before we begin, ensure that your Alpine Linux latest system is up to date with the latest security patches and software updates. You must also have sudo access.
We will begin by installing Git. This is required to clone the Wayback code repository from Github. Open a terminal window and execute the following command to install Git:
sudo apk add git
Now that Git is installed, we can clone the Wayback repository. Execute the following command to clone it into your current directory:
git clone https://github.com/wabarc/wayback.git
Wayback requires Java to run. To install Java, execute the following command:
sudo apk add openjdk11
With the Wayback repository cloned and Java installed, we can now build Wayback. Navigate to the Wayback directory by executing the following command:
cd wayback/
Then build Wayback using Maven:
mvn clean package
After building Wayback, we can launch it using the following command:
java -jar wayback-webapp/target/wayback-webapp-{version}.war
Replace {version}
with the version number of the Wayback you just built. You should now be able to access the Wayback web interface by pointing your browser to http://localhost:8080/wayback/
.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Wayback on Alpine Linux Latest.
