Vaults is a secure file encryption and decryption tool developed for GNU/Linux systems. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Vaults on Alpine Linux Latest.
Before installing Vaults, we need to install its dependencies. Open your terminal and execute the following commands:
apk update
apk add build-base gcc abuild binutils cmake
Next, we will download the Vaults source code from its GitHub repository. Run the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/MatrixEternal/vaults.git
Now, go to the Vaults directory by executing the following command:
cd vaults
Use the following commands to compile and install Vaults:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make install
The first command creates a build directory, and the second command moves into that directory. The cmake command generates the compilation files, and make compiles the code. make install installs Vaults on your system.
Verify that Vaults is installed correctly in your system by running the following command:
vaults --version
If you see the version of Vaults, that means it has been installed correctly.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Vaults on Alpine Linux Latest. Now you can use Vaults to encrypt and decrypt your files securely.
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!
