Chibisafe is an open-source file uploader and sharing platform. It allows you to easily upload, organize and share your files with others. Here's how you can install Chibisafe on Debian Latest.
Before we begin, you need to ensure that you have the following prerequisites installed on your system:
If you don't have these prerequisites installed, you can install them as follows:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3 python3-pip nodejs -y
The first step is to download the latest release of Chibisafe from the official website at chibisafe.moe. You can download it using this command:
wget https://github.com/ElliottF/Chibisafe/releases/latest/download/Chibisafe.Linux.zip
This will download a zipped file, which we need to extract.
unzip Chibisafe.Linux.zip
Now we need to install the dependencies of Chibisafe. Run the following command to install the dependencies via pip3.
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
After installing the Python dependencies, we now need to install the NPM packages by running the command below.
npm install
Once the installation is completed, we have to build the NPM packages using the command below.
npm run build
The last step before launching Chibisafe is configuring it. Copy the example.config.py to config.py. Use the command below to copy the file.
cp example.config.py config.py
Open the config.py file and update the necessary fields like SECRET_KEY and DB_*
nano config.py
At this stage, we have successfully installed Chibisafe on your Debian system. Now it's time to launch it.
./start.sh
That's it! You can now access the Chibisafe platform at http://localhost:8000 on your web browser.
You can now easily upload and share files on your own Chibisafe file sharing platform. If you face any issues, you can refer to the official documentation.
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!
