Pomf is a simple file hosting software that allows users to easily upload files to servers. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Pomf on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before installing Pomf, you need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
The first step in installing Pomf is to clone the repository from GitHub. To do this, log in to your server as the root user, and then use the following command:
git clone git://github.com/Pomf/Pomf.git /opt/pomf
This command will clone the Pomf repository into the /opt/pomf directory on your server.
Before you can run Pomf, you need to install the required dependencies. You can install them using the following command:
apt-get install cpanminus
cpanm Carton
cpanm --installdeps .
After installing the required dependencies, you need to configure Pomf. To do this, copy the config.pl.example file to config.pl using the following command:
cd /opt/pomf
cp config.pl.example config.pl
Then, edit the config.pl file using a text editor of your choice:
nano config.pl
In the file, modify the following lines:
our $db_name = 'pomf';
our $db_user = 'pomf';
our $db_pass = 'pomf';
These lines define the database name, username, and password. Change them to match your desired configuration.
Finally, you can start Pomf using the following command:
carton exec plackup -p 8080 -s Starman
This command will start Pomf on port 8080 using the Starman server.
After following these steps, you should now have Pomf up and running on your EndeavourOS Latest server. You can now use it to easily upload and share files.
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!
