Blink is a monitoring tool that helps you keep track of your API performance and availability. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to install Blink on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
Open your terminal application on your computer.
Connect to your Fedora CoreOS instance using SSH.
ssh [user]@[ip_address]
Run the following command to download and extract the Blink package.
curl -sL https://github.com/blinkops/blink/releases/download/0.9.1/blink-0.9.1-linux-amd64.tar.gz | tar xz
Move the Blink binary to the /usr/local/bin
directory.
sudo mv blink-0.9.1-linux-amd64/blink /usr/local/bin
This allows you to run Blink from anywhere on your system.
Verify that Blink is installed by running the following command.
blink --version
If installed successfully, you will see the version number displayed in the output.
You have successfully installed Blink on your Fedora CoreOS instance. You can now use Blink to monitor your API performance and availability.
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!
