Diagrams.net, formerly known as Draw.io, is an online diagramming tool that allows users to create a wide range of diagrams, flowcharts, and other visual representations. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Diagrams.net on Void Linux using the command line.
Before you begin, ensure that you have the following:
In order to ensure that we have access to the latest version of Diagrams.net and all of its dependencies, we need to update the package manager.
sudo xbps-install -Suy
This command updates the package manager with the latest software packages and dependencies.
Diagrams.net runs on the Java Virtual Machine. Therefore, we need to install the OpenJDK.
sudo xbps-install -S openjdk
This command installs OpenJDK on your machine.
Before we install Diagrams.net on our machine, we need to download the latest version.
wget https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases/download/v14.6.2/draw.io-x.x.x.x.xxxx.AppImage
Replace "x.x.x.x.xxxx" with the latest version number.
Now that we have downloaded the latest version of Diagrams.net, we need to set its permissions so that it is executable.
chmod +x draw.io-x.x.x.x.xxxx.AppImage
Again, replace "x.x.x.x.xxxx" with the latest version number.
Now that we have completed the installation process for Diagrams.net, we can run it by executing the following command:
./draw.io-x.x.x.x.xxxx.AppImage
Replace "x.x.x.x.xxxx" with the latest version number.
You have successfully installed Diagrams.net on your Void Linux machine. You can now create and edit diagrams, flowcharts and other visual representations 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!
