In this tutorial, we will go through the steps required to install LogPaste, a command-line tool for sharing log files, on Ubuntu Server. LogPaste is open-source software available on GitHub at https://github.com/mtlynch/logpaste.
This tutorial assumes that you have:
Before installing LogPaste, we need to install some required dependencies. We can do this by running the following command on the terminal:
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip
This command installs Python 3 and Python 3 pip, a package installer for Python 3.
Next, we need to clone LogPaste from GitHub to our Ubuntu Server. To do this, run the following command in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/mtlynch/logpaste.git
This command clones the LogPaste repository from GitHub to your local Ubuntu Server. The repository will be cloned to a new directory called "logpaste".
Now that we have cloned the LogPaste repository, we can install LogPaste by running the following command in the terminal:
cd logpaste
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
sudo python3 setup.py install
This command changes directory to the LogPaste directory and then installs the required Python modules using pip3. Finally, it runs the setup.py script to install LogPaste itself.
To verify that LogPaste has been installed correctly, run the following command in the terminal:
logpaste --version
This command should output the version number of LogPaste installed on your Ubuntu Server.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed LogPaste on your Ubuntu Server! You can now use LogPaste to share log files with others. For more information on how to use LogPaste, refer to the official LogPaste documentation at https://github.com/mtlynch/logpaste#readme.
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!
