How to Install Wastebin on FreeBSD Latest

Wastebin is an open-source project that allows users to upload and share files quickly and easily. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps of installing Wastebin on FreeBSD Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure your FreeBSD system is up-to-date and has the following packages installed:

• git
• npm
• Node.js

You can install these packages using the following command:

sudo pkg install git npm node

Step 1: Clone the Wastebin Repository

First, we need to clone the Wastebin repository from GitHub. We will use the git command to do this. Navigate to the directory where you want to install Wastebin and type the following command:

git clone https://github.com/matze/wastebin.git

This will clone the repository into a directory named wastebin.

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Next, we need to install the project dependencies. Navigate into the wastebin directory and type the following command:

npm install

This will install all of the required packages and dependencies needed for the project to run.

Step 3: Configure the Application

Now, we need to configure the application. In the wastebin directory, open the config.json file using a text editor. This file contains the configuration for the application.

You can customize the configuration as per your needs. For example, you can change the port number or the storage directory for uploaded files. Save the changes once you’re done.

Step 4: Start the Wastebin Server

Finally, we can start the Wastebin server. To do this, navigate to the wastebin directory and type the following command:

npm start

This will start the Wastebin server on the port specified in the config.json file.

You can now access the Wastebin application by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:<port_number> where <port_number> is the port number specified in the config.json file.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Wastebin on your FreeBSD Latest system. You can now use this application to upload and share files quickly and easily.
