Geo2tz is a lightweight utility that lets you convert geographical coordinates to time zone identifiers. It can be useful for a variety of applications that need to know a user's time zone based on their location. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to install Geo2tz on a Fedora Server.
Before installing Geo2tz, we need to install some dependencies on our system. These include the GCC compiler, the Make build tool, and the Standard C Library.
sudo dnf install gcc make glibc-devel
Next, we need to download the Geo2tz source code from its GitHub repository.
git clone https://github.com/noandrea/geo2tz.git
Once the code has been downloaded, navigate to the Geo2tz directory and run the Make command to build the program.
cd geo2tz
make
After the program has been built, we can install it to our system by running the following command:
sudo make install
This will copy the Geo2tz binary to the system's default binary path, which usually is /usr/local/bin/.
To verify that Geo2tz has been installed correctly, run the following command:
geo2tz --version
This should print the current version of the program.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Geo2tz on your Fedora Server. You can now use the command-line utility to convert geographical coordinates to time zones. To get started, refer to the program's documentation by running "geo2tz --help".
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!
