Spruce is a open-source tool for working with BOSH releases, manifests, and stemcells. This tutorial covers how to install Spruce on OpenBSD.
Before installing Spruce on OpenBSD, make sure that you have:
Spruce is written in Go, so you'll need to install Go on your machine. To install Go on OpenBSD, follow these steps:
$ doas pkg_add go
$ go version
This should display the installed Go version.
The next step is to clone the Spruce repository from GitHub. To do this, follow these steps:
Open the terminal and navigate to the directory where you'd like to install Spruce.
Clone the repository by running the following command:
$ git clone https://github.com/geofffranks/spruce.git
This will download the Spruce repository to your local machine.
Once you've cloned the Spruce repository, you'll need to build it. To do this, follow these steps:
Navigate to the directory where you cloned the Spruce repository.
Run the following command to build Spruce:
$ go build -o spruce
This will build Spruce and create an executable file called spruce.
To install Spruce, follow these steps:
spruce executable file to a directory in your $PATH. For example, run the following command:$ sudo cp spruce /usr/local/bin/
$ spruce --version
This should display the installed Spruce version.
You have successfully installed Spruce on OpenBSD. You can now use Spruce to work with BOSH releases, manifests, and stemcells.
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!
