Updog is an open-source Node.js-based utility that allows users to upload files to a server with ease. This tutorial will guide you through the installation process of Updog on your Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before installing Updog, make sure that your Ubuntu Server is updated to the latest version. Additionally, ensure that you have Node.js installed on your system. If you don't have Node.js installed, you can follow the instructions below to install it:
Open your terminal on Ubuntu Server and run the following command:
sudo apt-get update
Next, run the following command to install Node.js:
sudo apt-get install nodejs
Once installed, verify the installation by running the following command:
node -v
This command should return the version of Node.js installed on your system.
Follow the steps below to install Updog on your Ubuntu Server.
Open your terminal on Ubuntu Server and run the following command to install Updog via NPM:
sudo npm install -g updog
Once the installation is complete, you can run Updog by running the following command:
updog
This will start the Updog server on the default port 9090.
If you want to specify a different port, you can do so by adding the -p option followed by the port number you want to use. For example, to start Updog on port 8080, run the following command:
updog -p 8080
You can now access the Updog server by opening a web browser and navigating to http://<server-ip>:<port>. Replace <server-ip> with the IP address of your Ubuntu Server and <port> with the port number you specified in step 3 (or 9090 for the default port).
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Updog on Ubuntu Server Latest. You can now use Updog to upload files to your server with ease.
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!
