Doozerd is a consistent distributed data store designed to provide strong guarantees of availability and consistency. It is open source and can be downloaded from GitHub at https://github.com/ha/doozerd. In this tutorial, we will cover how to install Doozerd on FreeBSD Latest.
Before starting, ensure that your FreeBSD system is up to date by running the following command:
sudo pkg update && sudo pkg upgrade
Doozerd is written in Go, so we need to install Go to compile and run Doozerd. You can install Go by running the following command:
sudo pkg install go
After the installation, check the version of Go installed on your system with the following command:
go version
Next, we need to clone Doozerd's GitHub repository to our local system. Run the following command to clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/ha/doozerd.git
Once the cloning is completed, change your directory to the cloned repository by running:
cd doozerd
Doozerd's build system requires the GOPATH variable to be set, so we need to configure GOPATH. Set GOPATH by running the following command:
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
To build Doozerd, run the following command:
go build ./cmd/doozer/
After the build is complete, you should see a doozer binary file in your current directory.
We can now install Doozerd by running the following command:
sudo mv doozer /usr/local/bin
Verify the installation by running the following command:
doozerd -v
If the installation was successful, you should see the version of Doozerd displayed.
In this tutorial, we have covered how to install Doozerd on FreeBSD Latest. You can now start using Doozerd to manage your consistent distributed data.
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!
