In this tutorial, we will guide you step by step on how to install Send, a simple and private file sharing service, on Clear Linux Latest.
Send is an open-source application available on GitHub. It allows users to securely and easily send files from one device to another using a modern, intuitive user interface.
Before installing Send, you must have the following:
Open the terminal on your Clear Linux system.
Install the required dependencies:
sudo swupd bundle-add git go
This command installs git and go, which are needed to download and build Send.
Download the Send source code from GitHub:
git clone https://github.com/timvisee/send
Navigate to the Send directory:
cd send
Build the Send binary:
go build
(Optional) If you want to generate a self-signed TLS certificate, run the following command:
./send tls generate
This will create a new self-signed certificate in the ./cert.pem and ./key.pem files.
Note: It's recommended to use a valid HTTPS certificate from a trusted certificate authority for production use.
Run Send:
./send
This will start Send on port 3000. You can access the Send web interface by entering http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.
Note: If you want Send to be accessible from outside your local network, you need to configure your firewall to allow incoming traffic on port 3000.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Send on Clear Linux Latest. You can now use Send to securely and easily share files with your friends and colleagues.
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!
