Bencher is a command-line benchmark tool for testing systems and applications written in Go. This tutorial will guide you on how to install Bencher on Fedora Server latest version.
The first step is to update all software packages to their latest versions using the following command:
sudo dnf update
In order to install Bencher, we need to have Go language installed on the system. Use the following command to install Go:
sudo dnf install golang
After installing Go, we need to set some environment variables. Open the .bashrc file using the following command:
nano ~/.bashrc
Add the following lines to the end of the file:
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$GOPATH/bin
Save and exit the file by pressing Ctrl + X, then Y, and finally Enter.
Now we can install Bencher using the go get command:
go get github.com/ahmedaly109/bencher
To verify that Bencher is installed correctly, run the following command:
bencher -h
This should output the help message for Bencher.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Bencher on your Fedora Server system. You can now use it to benchmark your applications and systems.
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!
