Pasty is a simple pastebin application that allows users to share code snippets and text-based content. It is available on GitHub and can be installed on OpenBSD with the following steps:
Before installing Pasty, you need to make sure that all the required dependencies are installed in your system. In OpenBSD, you can install the required dependencies by running the following command:
doas pkg_add sqlite ruby
The next step is to clone the Pasty repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command in your terminal:
git clone https://github.com/lus/pasty.git
Navigate to your cloned Pasty directory and run the installation script:
cd pasty
./bin/setup
This will install all the required dependencies and create the necessary database files.
Once the installation is complete, you can start Pasty with the following command:
foreman start
This will start Pasty and its dependencies such as the web server and background workers.
Pasty is now running on your OpenBSD system. You can access it by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:5000.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Pasty on your OpenBSD system. You can now start using it to share text-based content and 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!
