Chibisafe is a lightweight and easy-to-use image hosting and sharing platform. Installing Chibisafe on NetBSD can be a simple and straightforward process, as long as you follow the steps below.
Before you begin the installation process, make sure that you have the following:
Chibisafe requires multiple dependencies to properly function on the system. Make sure to install these dependencies to avoid any errors during the installation process:
# pkgin update -y
# pkgin install -y git python38 py38-pillow py38-pip
You can download the latest version of Chibisafe from their official website. Make sure to download the stable version and save it to your NetBSD instance.
# git clone https://github.com/Chibisafe/chibisafe.git
Chibisafe requires additional Python packages to work properly. You can install these packages through the Python package manager using the following command:
# cd chibisafe
# pip3.8 install -r requirements.txt
Navigate to the Chibisafe directory and create a copy of the config.py.example file to config.py.
# cp config.py.example config.py
Open the newly created config.py file and modify the necessary parameters according to your preferences. Some of the parameters that you should modify include:
SECRET_KEYUPLOAD_FOLDERSQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URIALLOWED_EXTENSIONSSave and exit the file once you’ve modified the necessary parameters.
You can launch Chibisafe by using the following command:
# python3.8 run.py
This will start the instance on http://0.0.0.0:5000. You can navigate to this URL to access the instance and start using Chibisafe.
Following the steps above should allow you to properly install and configure Chibisafe on your NetBSD instance. With Chibisafe, you can quickly and easily host and share your images with others, making it a useful tool for personal and professional purposes alike.
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!
