Wayback is a tool used to browse and access archived web pages. It is an open source project that can be accessed through GitHub. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Wayback on an Ubuntu server.
Before we start with the installation process, here are the things you will need:
First, update your server's package list and install Java JDK:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install default-jdk
After installing Java, check if it is installed correctly by running the following command:
java -version
Next, install Git by running the following command:
sudo apt install git
Verify that Git has been installed by running:
git --version
Now, we need to clone the Wayback repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/wabarc/wayback.git
cd wayback/
After cloning the Wayback repository, we need to build it. Here are the commands to do that:
./gradlew wayback:war
To run Wayback, use the following command:
./gradlew wayback:bootRun
Once the server is up, you can access Wayback by visiting the following URL:
http://localhost:8080/wayback/
You have successfully installed Wayback on an Ubuntu server. This tool can help you browse and access archived web pages. Enjoy browsing through the past!
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!
