MicroBin is a simple and lightweight paste server written in Go. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing and running it on Arch Linux.
Before you start, you need to have the following installed on your system:
First, open your terminal and clone the MicroBin repository from GitHub using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/szabodanika/microbin.git
This command will download the MicroBin source code from GitHub to your local machine.
To build the application, navigate to the microbin directory and run the following command:
go build
This command will compile the MicroBin application and create an executable file called microbin.
Now that the application has been built, you can run it using the following command:
./microbin
This will start the MicroBin server on your local machine, listening on port 8080 by default.
To verify that the installation was successful, open your web browser and go to http://localhost:8080. You should see the MicroBin home page.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed MicroBin on Arch Linux.
MicroBin is a simple and lightweight paste server that is easy to install and use. By following the steps in this tutorial, you should now have a working instance of MicroBin running on your Arch Linux machine.
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!
