SnyPy is a smart and simple serverless monitoring solution that provides insights into your business-critical systems, applications, and databases. In this tutorial, we are going to install SnyPy on Ubuntu Server latest.
Before installing SnyPy, we need to install Python on our Ubuntu server. You can install Python using the following command:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3
Now that we have Python installed, let's install SnyPy. We will download the SnyPy package and install it using pip.
git clone https://github.com/snyk/snyk.git
cd snyk
sudo pip3 install -e .
Once SnyPy is installed, we need to configure it by adding an API key. You can do this by following the steps below.
First, go to https://app.snyk.io/account and create an account if you have not already done so.
After you have logged in, click on Settings.
In the Settings page, navigate to API tokens and click on Create New Token.
Give this token a name and click on Create.
Copy the token you have just created.
Go to your terminal and run the following command to set the API key.
snyk auth your_api_key_here
Now that SnyPy is installed and configured, you can use it to monitor your environment. To test SnyPy, run the following command.
snyk test
This will scan your environment for vulnerabilities.
You can also use SnyPy to continually monitor your environment for vulnerabilities by setting up a cron job. For example, the following cron job will run snyk test every day at 11am.
0 11 * * * snyk test
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured SnyPy on your Ubuntu Server Latest.
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!
