Uploady is a Python library for file uploads using the Flask framework. Here's a simple guide for installing Uploady on OpenBSD:
Before installing any Python library, make sure that Python3 and Pip3 are installed on your OpenBSD machine. To install, run the following command in the terminal:
$ doas pkg_add python-3.8.6p0
This command installs Python3. Replace python-3.8.6p0
with the latest Python3 package available on OpenBSD.
Next, install pip3 using the command:
$ doas pkg_add py3-pip-20.X.X
Again, replace py3-pip-20.X.X
with the latest available pip3 package.
Navigate to the directory/folder where you want to install Uploady and clone the repository using the command:
$ git clone https://github.com/farisc0de/Uploady.git
This command clones the Uploady repository from GitHub to your local machine.
Navigate to the newly cloned Uploady directory and install the dependencies using pip3:
$ cd Uploady
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
This command installs Flask, the framework on which Uploady is built, along with other necessary dependencies.
To run the Uploady application, enter the following command in the terminal:
$ python3 app.py
This command starts the Flask development server on your local machine. The application can now be accessed on http://localhost:5000/
.
With these simple steps, you can install Uploady on OpenBSD and begin using it for file upload functionality in your Python Flask applications.
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!
