How to Install Picsur on NetBSD

Picsur is a tool that allows you to easily upload images to Imgur via the command line. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Picsur on NetBSD.

Prerequisites

Before you begin with the installation process, you need to make sure that the following software is installed on your system:

• Git
• Go
• Imgur API credentials

Installation

Follow the steps below to install Picsur on NetBSD:

1. Open the terminal on your NetBSD system.

2. Clone the Picsur repository from Git using the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/rubikscraft/Picsur.git
   

3. Navigate to the Picsur directory:

   cd Picsur/
   

4. Create an imgur.credentials file in the Picsur directory using your Imgur API credentials. You can get these credentials from Imgur Developer Portal.

   The credentials should be in the following format:

   client_id = YOUR_CLIENT_ID
   client_secret = YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET
   

   Replace YOUR_CLIENT_ID and YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET with your own Imgur API credentials.

5. Build the Picsur binary using the following command:

   go build picsur.go
   

6. Once the build is complete, you can run Picsur with the following command:

   ./picsur
   

7. If you want to use Picsur from anywhere in the terminal, then you can add the Picsur directory to your system's PATH variable using the following command:

   export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/Picsur
   

   Replace /path/to/Picsur with the actual path to the Picsur directory.

You have successfully installed Picsur on NetBSD! You can now use Picsur to upload images to Imgur via the command line.
