Installing Goploader on Pop!_OS

Goploader is a simple and secure file-sharing tool that allows users to upload and share files quickly and easily. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Goploader on Pop!_OS latest.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Install Go

Before installing Goploader, we must first install the Go programming language, as it is a dependency. You can download the latest Go binary distribution from the official website, or use the following commands to install it:

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install golang

Once the installation is complete, check the Go version by running the following command:

$ go version

Step 2: Install Goploader

Now that we have installed Go, we can proceed to install Goploader. You can use the following commands to clone the Goploader repository from Github:

$ git clone https://github.com/Depado/goploader.git
$ cd goploader
$ make build

This will download the Goploader source code and compile it into an executable binary.

Step 3: Run Goploader

To run Goploader, use the following command:

$ ./bin/goploader --config config.yaml

This will start the Goploader server, which can be accessed via a web browser at http://localhost:8080. By default, Goploader uses a simple upload form to allow users to share files. However, you can also configure it to use other frontend applications or APIs.

Conclusion

That's it! You have successfully installed Goploader on Pop!_OS latest. Now you can easily share files securely and quickly with your friends and family.
