Wastebin is an open-source tool that allows you to share snippets of code or text with others. In this tutorial, we will go through the process of installing Wastebin on a NetBSD operating system.
Before proceeding with the installation, make sure that you have the following prerequisites installed:
First, open your terminal and clone the Wastebin repository from GitHub using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/matze/wastebin.git
Once the repository is cloned, move to the Wastebin directory using the following command:
cd wastebin
Before running Wastebin, you need to install its dependencies. To install the dependencies, run the following command:
npm install
This command will install all the required modules and packages required by Wastebin to run.
Configure the environment variables by renaming the .env.example to .env and updating the information as needed.
cp .env.example .env
Finally, to run Wastebin, use the following command:
npm start
This will start the Wastebin server and it will be visible by accessing http://localhost:3000 on a web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Wastebin on NetBSD. You can now create and share code snippets with others.
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!
