Installation
For Windows
The first step is to find and download the latest Windows (.EXE) installer for DocGoblin here.
Open the Installer File
Once the installer is downloaded, locate the file in your downloads folder and double-click it to open.
Opening the installer will launch the setup wizard. This wizard is designed to guide you through the installation process step by step, ensuring you donât miss anything important.
Windows Alert
If Windows interrupts the installation process and warns you of a potential danger, that’s normal – it’s doing its job.
To authorize installation, you can go to Start > Settings > Applications > Applications and Features. On the âChoose application originâ line, the setting can be âWindows Store Onlyâ. Replace this setting with âAnywhereâ and then you should be able to install DocGoblin.
This alert exists because DocGoblin is new software. Once many people have installed it on their computers, Windows will mark it as safe.
Follow the On-Screen Instructions
Next, carefully follow the on-screen instructions provided by the installer.
These instructions include selecting the installation directory and agreeing to the softwareâs terms and conditions. Be sure to read each step carefully.
Wait for the Installation to Complete
After youâve made your selections, click the âInstallâ button and wait for the process to finish.
The installation time will vary depending on your computerâs speed.
Launch the Software
Once the installation is complete, locate the software in the Start Menu or on your desktop and open it.
For Linux (.deb)
Download the package
The first step is to find and download the latest Linux (.DEB) package for DocGoblin here.
If you prefer the terminal, you can download the deb
file with wget or curl :
wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/JulienTroudet/docgoblin/releases/download/v1.1.1/docgoblin_1.1.1_amd64.deb
curl -k -O -L https://github.com/JulienTroudet/docgoblin/releases/download/v1.1.1/docgoblin_1.1.1_amd64.deb
Installing deb files with apt
apt
is a command-line utility for installing, updating, removing, and otherwise managing deb packages on Ubuntu, Debian, and related Linux distributions.
To install the DocGoblin deb
packages with apt you need to provide the full path to the deb file. If the file is located in your current working directory instead of typing the absolute path, you can prepend ./
before the package name.
sudo apt install ./docgoblin_1.1.1_amd64.deb
Installing deb files with dpkg
dpkg is a low-level package manager for Debian-based systems. Use the -i (or –install) option to install deb packages with dpkg
.
sudo dpkg -i docgoblin_1.1.1_amd64.deb
For Linux (.rpm)
Download the package
The first step is to find and download the latest Linux (.RPM) package for DocGoblin here.
If you prefer the terminal, you can download the rpm
file with wget or curl :
wget --no-check-certificate https://github.com/JulienTroudet/docgoblin/releases/download/v1.1.1/docgoblin-1.1.1-1.x86_64.rpm
curl -k -O -L https://github.com/JulienTroudet/docgoblin/releases/download/v1.1.1/docgoblin-1.1.1-1.x86_64.rpm
Installing rpm files using rpm command (CentOS, Fedora…)
The rpm command is the default package manager for Red Hat-based systems and only works with the .rpm format. To install an RPM package using rpm
, use the following syntax:
sudo rpm -i ./docgoblin_1.1.1_amd64.deb
Installing rpm files using yum command (CentOS)
The yum
package manager is an alternative method to install RPM files. yum
is still used in some Linux distributions.
sudo yum localinstall ./docgoblin_1.1.1_amd64.deb
Installing rpm files using dnf command (Fedora, RHEL, Rocky Linux)
Another method to install RPM files on Fedora and RHEL is to use the dnf
(Dandified YUM) utility. This tool is used primarily in RPM-based Linux distributions (Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, and other derivatives). dnf
is the successor to yum
, offering improved performance, dependency resolution, and a more modern command-line interface.
sudo dnf localinstall ./docgoblin_1.1.1_amd64.deb
