Goploader is a fast, secure, and anonymous file uploader that uses end-to-end encryption to secure your files. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install goploader on Ubuntu Server latest with step-by-step instructions.
Before starting the installation process, you must ensure that your Ubuntu Server is up-to-date with the latest updates and has installed git and docker on your system. Ensure that you have the root user access or the sudo privileges to install and execute the commands.
First, open the terminal, and navigate to the directory where you want to install goploader. To clone the goploader repository, run the following command in the terminal.
git clone https://github.com/Depado/goploader.git
The above command will clone the goploader repository into the current directory.
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the cloned goploader directory, and build a docker image using the following command.
cd goploader
docker build -t goploader .
The above command will build a docker image for goploader with the tag goploader.
Now, run the goploader docker container using the following command.
docker run -d \
-v /var/goploader:/go/files \
-p 8080:8080 \
goploader serve
This command will run the goploader container in detached mode -d, map the /var/goploader directory to the /go/files volume inside the container, map the host machine's port 8080 to the container's port 8080, and then start the goploader server with the serve command.
To test whether goploader is working or not, open a browser and navigate to http://<ubuntu-server-IP-address>:8080, where <ubuntu-server-IP-address> is the IP address of the Ubuntu Server.
If it shows the goploader browser page, then goploader has been successfully installed on your Ubuntu Server.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to install goploader on Ubuntu Server latest. With goploader, you can now securely share files online without worrying about security issues.
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!
