In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Tmate on OpenSUSE Latest. Tmate is an open-source terminal sharing software that allows multiple users to collaborate on a single terminal session.
The first step is to update your system packages to their latest versions. Open the terminal and execute the following command:
sudo zypper update
Next, Tmate depends on several packages that must be installed. Run the following command in the terminal to install them:
sudo zypper install libevent-devel libmsgpack-devel cmake zlib-devel libssh-devel
Now it's time to clone Tmate from its official Github repository. Open the terminal and navigate to your preferred directory. And then execute the following command:
git clone https://github.com/tmate-io/tmate.git
After cloning the Tmate repository, we need to build and install it. Move to the cloned directory and execute the following commands one by one in the terminal:
cd tmate
./configure && make
sudo make install
Finally, we need to verify the Tmate is installed by checking its version. Execute the following command in the terminal:
tmate -V
If Tmate installed correctly, you should see the version number.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Tmate on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now use the Tmate command to share your terminal sessions with remote users.
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!
