Shaark is an open-source network traffic analyzer that can help you monitor and troubleshoot network issues. Here is a guide on how to install Shaark on OpenSUSE.
Before installing new packages, it is always recommended to update your system to the latest version. To do this, open a terminal and type the following command:
sudo zypper update
Enter your password when prompted and wait for the update process to complete.
Shaark requires some dependencies to be installed before you can install the application. Run the following command to install the required packages:
sudo zypper install cmake gcc gcc-c++ libpcap-devel wireshark-devel
Next, you need to download the source code for Shaark. You can do this by cloning the Git repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/MarceauKa/shaark.git
Change your working directory to the cloned repository by running:
cd shaark
Create a build directory and switch to it:
mkdir build
cd build
Run the cmake command to configure the build:
cmake ..
Build and install Shaark:
make
sudo make install
After the installation is complete, you can verify that Shaark is working by typing the following command:
sudo shaark_test
This will run a simple test to ensure everything is working as expected.
Shaark is now installed on your OpenSUSE system, and you are ready to analyze network traffic. Use the command shaark to start the application. For additional help and information, refer to the Shaark documentation.
