In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Shiori, a simple bookmark manager built with Go language, on the latest version of FreeBSD.
Before starting this tutorial, make sure that you have:
Install Go language
First, you need to install Go language on your FreeBSD server using the following command:
# pkg install go
Install Git
You also need to install Git, which is needed to clone the repository:
# pkg install git
Clone the Repository
Clone the Shiori repository using the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/go-shiori/shiori.git
Build the Binary
Move into the shiori directory and build the binary file using the following command:
$ cd shiori
$ go build
Install and Run the Binary
Run the binary after building it:
$ sudo ./shiori
This will prompt Shiori to create a database in its folder, which will store all your bookmarks.
Access Shiori from your browser
Open your browser and go to http://localhost:8080
to see your Shiori instance in action.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Shiori on your FreeBSD server. You can now add, organize, and search all your bookmarks on your personal and secure bookmark manager.
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!
