Transfer.sh is a simple file sharing service that allows you to share files from Linux terminal. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing transfer.sh on Linux Mint Latest.
Before we start, make sure that your system meets the following prerequisites:
To download and install transfer.sh, we need to have curl installed on our system. Run the following command in the terminal to install curl:
sudo apt-get install curl
Enter your root password when prompted and wait for the installation to complete.
Once the curl is installed, we can download transfer.sh to our system using curl. Run the following command in the terminal:
curl --upload-file /path/to/file https://transfer.sh/filename
Replace /path/to/file
with the path to your file, and filename
with the name you want to give to your file. You will get a link to download the file.
We need to make the downloaded transfer.sh file executable. Run the following command in the terminal:
chmod +x /usr/bin/transfer.sh
To test if transfer.sh is working fine, run the following command in the terminal:
transfer.sh /path/to/file
Replace /path/to/file
with the path to your file. You should get a link to download your file.
In this tutorial, we have successfully installed and tested transfer.sh on Linux Mint Latest. You can now use it to transfer files from your terminal.
