Prologic Pastebin is a simple and easy-to-use web-based pastebin service that allows users to store and share text snippets securely. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing and setting up Prologic Pastebin on EndeavourOS.
Before we get started, you need to have a few things ready:
The first step is to install the dependencies required to build and run Prologic Pastebin. You can install these dependencies by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo pacman -S make git go
This will install the make utility, git version control system, and the go programming language.
Next, we need to clone the Prologic Pastebin repository from GitHub. Open a terminal and run the following command:
git clone https://git.mills.io/prologic/pastebin
This will download the source code of Prologic Pastebin to your local machine.
After cloning the repository, we will now build Prologic Pastebin using the following command:
cd pastebin && make
This will compile and build the binary files for Prologic Pastebin.
By default, the configuration file for Prologic Pastebin is located in the config.toml file in the root directory of the repository. You can modify this file to customize the settings of the application.
Create and edit the config.toml file in the pastebin directory using your preferred text editor:
cd pastebin
cp example.config.toml prod.config.toml
vim prod.config.toml # or nano, or whatever editor you prefer
Once the configuration file is set up, you can run the Prologic Pastebin application using the following command:
./pastebin
This will start the application and listen on the default port 8000. You can navigate to http://localhost:8000 in your web browser to access the application.
If you want to expose your pastebin service to the internet, you need to configure Apache web server.
Create an Apache configuration file for Prologic pastebin
sudo touch /etc/httpd/conf/extra/pastebin.conf
sudo nano /etc/httpd/conf/extra/pastebin.conf
And add the following lines to it
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName yourdomain.com
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8000/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8000/
</VirtualHost>
Replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain name you are using to access your pastebin service.
Now restart the Apache web service
sudo systemctl restart httpd.service
That's it! You have successfully installed and configured Prologic Pastebin on EndeavourOS. You can now use it to store and share text snippets!
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!
