Damselfly is a lightweight and efficient file manager designed for server environments. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Damselfly on a Fedora Server Latest system.
Before we start, please ensure that you have:
It is always a good practice to update your system to the latest software packages. To do this, open the terminal and run the following command:
dnf update -y
To install Damselfly, we need to install some dependencies first. Open the terminal and run the following command:
dnf -y install git libattr-devel fuse-devel go
We will now download the Damselfly source code from Github and build it. Open the terminal and run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/Pyros2097/damselfly.git
cd damselfly
make
This will download the Damselfly source code from Github, change the current directory to the downloaded code, and compile it.
Now that Damselfly has been built, we need to install it. Open the terminal and run the following command:
make install
This will install Damselfly on your system.
Next, we need to mount Damselfly. Run the following command:
mkdir ~/damselfly
~/go/bin/damselfly ~/damselfly
This will create a directory named "damselfly" in your home directory and mount it using Damselfly.
To verify that Damselfly is installed and working, navigate to the damselfly directory using a file manager or the terminal. You should see your server files and folders.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Damselfly on your Fedora Server Latest system.
