Fiche is a command-line utility that allows users to create a pastebin or a file-sharing service. It is easy to install Fiche on Debian, and this guide will show you how to do it.
You will need a few things before you can install Fiche in Debian:
Once you have these prerequisites, follow the steps below to install Fiche.
Before installing Fiche, let’s ensure that your system is up to date by running the following command:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
This command will update your Debian system to the latest version and install any available updates.
Before installing Fiche, you must first install its dependencies. Run the following command in the terminal to install them:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libssl-dev
The first package "build-essential" installs common compilers and building tools, and the second package " libssl-dev" installs the SSL development libraries.
To install Fiche, you need to download the source code and compile it. Follow these steps:
Go to the Fiche GitHub page at fiche">https://github.com/solusipse/fiche and download the source code by clicking the "Code" button and selecting "Download ZIP".
Extract the downloaded ZIP file to a directory of your choice.
Open the terminal and navigate to the directory containing the Fiche code.
Compile and install Fiche by running the following commands in order:
make
sudo make install
Once Fiche is installed successfully, you can test it to confirm it is working correctly. Use the following command to start the Fiche server:
fiche
This will start the Fiche server on port 9999. You can now use any web browser to access Fiche by typing your Debian system IP address and port number (e.g http://192.168.1.1:9999) into the address bar.
Fiche is now installed on your Debian system, and you can start sharing files through the command line. With Fiche, you can easily upload and share files with other users. Keep in mind that Fiche is limited in that it can only share files of a fixed size. If you need to share large files, consider using other file-sharing tools.
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!
