How to Install 0bin on FreeBSD Latest

0bin is an open-source pastebin service which lets you share confidential information in a secure and encrypted way. This tutorial will guide you through the steps required to install 0bin on FreeBSD.

Prerequisites

Before installing 0bin, there are some prerequisites that must be met:

Installation

  1. First, download the latest version of 0bin from their GitHub repository:

    # fetch https://github.com/Tygs/0bin/archive/master.tar.gz -o 0bin.tar.gz
    
  2. Extract the downloaded archive:

    # tar -xzvf 0bin.tar.gz
    
  3. Move the extracted directory to your desired location. For example, if you want to install it in the default location of "/usr/local/www/0bin", run the following command:

    # mv 0bin-master /usr/local/www/0bin
    
  4. Install the required Python dependencies by running the following command:

    # pip install -r /usr/local/www/0bin/requirements.txt
    
  5. Configure 0bin by editing the "config.py" file located in the "/usr/local/www/0bin" directory. Customize the configuration to your needs.

  6. Set up the 0bin service to start automatically at system boot by creating a service file. For example, create a new file called "0bin" in the "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/" directory and add the following content:

    #!/bin/sh
    #
    # PROVIDE: 0bin
    # REQUIRE: LOGIN DAEMON NETWORKING
    # KEYWORD: nojail shutdown
    #
    # Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable 0bin:
    #
    # 0bin_enable="YES"
    #
    # You will also need to set the following variables:
    #
    # 0bin_user      (default: www)
    # 0bin_group     (default: www)
    # 0bin_command   (default: /usr/local/bin/python /usr/local/www/0bin/run.py)
    #
    
    . /etc/rc.subr
    
    name="0bin"
    rcvar=${name}_enable
    
    load_rc_config $name
    
    : ${0bin_enable:=no}
    : ${0bin_user:=www}
    : ${0bin_group:=www}
    : ${0bin_command:=/usr/local/bin/python /usr/local/www/0bin/run.py}
    
    pidfile="/var/run/${name}.pid"
    
    command="/usr/sbin/daemon -c -P ${pidfile} -f -u ${0bin_user} -g ${0bin_group} ${0bin_command}"
    start_cmd="${command} start"
    stop_cmd="${command} stop"
    status_cmd="${command} status"
    
    run_rc_command "$1"
    
  7. Make the "0bin" file executable:

    # chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/0bin
    
  8. Start the 0bin service by running the following command:

    # service 0bin start
    
  9. Verify that the 0bin service is running correctly by visiting the URL "http://localhost:8080" in your web browser.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed 0bin on FreeBSD Latest. You can now use it to share confidential information with security and peace of mind.
