This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Lura on NetBSD. Lura is a library for compressing and decompressing images. It can be used to reduce the size of images files while preserving the quality of the image.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following requirements in place:
First, we need to install the dependencies required for Lura. Run the following command in the terminal:
sudo pkgin install gcc gmake pkg-config zlib
This will install the GCC compiler, GMake, the pkg-config utility, and the zlib compression library.
Next, we need to download the Lura source code. Go to the Lura website (https://luraproject.org/) and click on the "Download" button. This will take you to the GitHub repository. Click on the "Code" button and select "Download ZIP".
Alternatively, you can clone the repository using Git by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/luradev/lura.git
Once the source code is downloaded, navigate to the directory where it is saved and run the following commands:
./configure
make
sudo make install
The configure script will check if all the necessary dependencies are installed and set up the build environment. The make command will compile the source code, and the sudo make install command will install the Lura library on your system.
To verify that Lura is installed correctly, run the following command:
lura -V
This will display the version of Lura installed on your system.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Lura on your NetBSD system. You can now use Lura library to compress and decompress image files.
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!
