Goeland is an open-source HTTP server written in Go. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing it on NetBSD.
Before you begin, make sure that you have the following:
The first step in installing Goeland is to clone the repository from GitHub.
Run the following command to clone the repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/slurdge/goeland.git
After cloning the repository, navigate into the goeland directory:
$ cd goeland
Next, build the source code with the following command:
$ go build
This will create a binary file called goeland in the goeland directory.
Before running the server, you need to configure it.
Create a configuration file named goeland.yml in the goeland directory with the following contents:
address: ":8000"
root_dir: "/path/to/your/web/root"
This configuration sets the address of the server to :8000 and the root directory to the path where your website is located.
Now that you have built and configured Goeland, you can run it by running the following command in the goeland directory:
$ ./goeland -config goeland.yml
This will start the server on the specified address in the configuration file.
Goeland is now running and serving your website. You can access it by opening a web browser and navigating to the address you specified in the configuration file.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Goeland on NetBSD.
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!
