In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Eclipse Che on Arch Linux. Eclipse Che is an open-source cloud-based IDE that allows developers to write, build, and test code online.
Eclipse Che requires Java to run. You can install Java on your Arch Linux system by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S jre-openjdk
Eclipse Che runs as a containerized application, and therefore, it requires Docker to be installed on your system. You can install Docker on your Arch Linux system by running the following command:
sudo pacman -S docker
Once Docker is installed, start the Docker service using the following command:
sudo systemctl start docker
Verify that the Docker service is running by running the following command:
sudo systemctl status docker
You can install Eclipse Che on your Arch Linux system by using the AUR package manager. To install the AUR package manager, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S base-devel git
Next, clone the Eclipse Che AUR package using the following command:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/eclipse-che-bin.git
Change your current working directory to the cloned repository by running the following command:
cd eclipse-che-bin
Finally, install the Eclipse Che package using the following command:
makepkg -si
Once the installation is complete, you can start Eclipse Che using the following command:
eclipse-che
Next, open a web browser, and navigate to the following URL:
http://localhost:8080
You should now be able to access Eclipse Che on your Arch Linux system.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Eclipse Che on Arch Linux. Eclipse Che is an open-source cloud-based IDE that allows developers to write, build, and test code online.
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!
