In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps required to install Send, a simple and private file sharing tool, on Fedora CoreOS latest.
Before attempting to install Send, ensure that you have a few prerequisites installed on your system:
To install Send from its GitHub repository, we need to install Git, which is used to clone the repository, and Go, which is required to build Send.
Install Git by running the following command:
sudo dnf install -y git
Once Git has been installed, install Go by running the following command:
sudo dnf install -y golang
Now, clone the Send repository from its GitHub page by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/timvisee/send.git
This command will clone the Send repository to your current directory.
After cloning the Send repository, navigate to the cloned directory by running the following command:
cd send
Next, build Send using the Go compiler by running the following command:
go build
Once the compilation is complete, you can install Send on your system using the following command:
sudo cp ./send /usr/local/bin/send
Finally, verify that Send has been installed by running the following command:
send --help
You should see the Send help page displayed on your screen, indicating that it has been installed successfully.
In this tutorial, we walked you through the steps required to install Send on your Fedora CoreOS latest operating system. Now that you have installed Send, you can use it to share files with others securely and privately.
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!
