Bin is a command-line tool for storing, accessing, and managing snippets of code. If you want to use Bin on your Void Linux system, you will need to install it from the GitHub repository. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do that.
Before you can install Bin on your Void Linux system, you need to make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step to installing Bin on Void Linux is to clone the GitHub repository. To do this, open the terminal and enter the following command:
git clone https://github.com/w4/bin.git
This will download the Bin repository to your system.
Once you have cloned the Bin repository, you can install it on your system. To do this, navigate to the bin
directory by using the following command:
cd bin
Next, you need to run the following command to make the bin
command available system-wide:
sudo make install
This will install the bin
command to /usr/local/bin
. If you want to install Bin to a different location, you can use the PREFIX
option. For example, if you want to install Bin to /opt/bin
, you can use the following command instead:
sudo make PREFIX=/opt install
Once you have installed Bin on your system, you should verify that it is working correctly. To do this, run the following command:
bin --version
This should display the version of Bin that you have installed on your system.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Bin from the GitHub repository on your Void Linux system. You can now use Bin to store, access, and manage code snippets from the command line.
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!
