Transfer.sh is an open-source file sharing platform that allows users to securely upload and share files online. In this tutorial, we will describe how to install transfer.sh on NetBSD.
Before we proceed with the installation, there are a few prerequisites that need to be met:
NetBSD Operating System installed on your machine.
Basic knowledge of the command-line interface.
Internet connectivity.
To ensure that you have the latest system packages installed on your NetBSD machine, update the packages by running the following command:
$ sudo pkgin update
Next, we need to install the required packages for transfer.sh. Run the following command to install them:
$ sudo pkgin install go git
After installing the required packages, clone the transfer.sh repository from its GitHub repository using the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/dutchcoders/transfer.sh.git
Once the repository has been cloned successfully, navigate to the transfer.sh directory using the following command:
$ cd transfer.sh
Now, build the transfer.sh executable by running the following command:
$ make
To install transfer.sh, run the following command:
$ sudo make install
If you don't have root access, run the following command:
$ make install PREFIX=$HOME/.local
After installing transfer.sh, you can start using it by running the following command:
$ transfer filename
Replace "filename" with the name of the file you want to upload.
That's it! You have successfully installed and run transfer.sh on your NetBSD machine. You can now use it to securely upload and share files online.
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!
