Debian and Ubuntu based distributions
Tested on Ubuntu 16.04-18.04, Debian 9.9, Mint 19.1
The easiest way to install Monitask for Debian/Ubuntu based distributions is to download and install the .deb package through the graphical interface. Installing the .deb package will automatically install the apt repository and signing key to enable auto updating using the system's package manager.
The repository and key can also be installed with the following script:
wget -qO - https://deskcap.blob.core.windows.net/deployment/Linux/deb/Release/PUBLIC.KEY | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://deskcap.blob.core.windows.net/deployment/Linux/deb/Release bionic main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/monitask.list
Then update the package cache and install Monitask using:
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install monitask
RHEL, Fedora, and CentOS based distributions
Tested on Fedora 28-30, CentOS 7, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
The easiest way to install Monitask for Fedora/CentOS based distributions is to download and install the .rpm package through the graphical interface. Installing the .rpm package will automatically install the yum repository and signing key to enable auto updating using the system's package manager.
We ship rpm package in a yum repository, the following script can also be used to install the key and repository:
sudo rpm --import https://deskcap.blob.core.windows.net/deployment/Linux/rpm/Release/PUBLIC.KEY
sudo sh -c 'echo -e "[Monitask]\nname=Monitask\nbaseurl=https://deskcap.blob.core.windows.net/deployment/Linux/rpm/Release/x86_64\ngpgkey=https://deskcap.blob.core.windows.net/deployment/Linux/rpm/Release/PUBLIC.KEY" > /etc/yum.repos.d/Monitask.repo'
Then update the package cache and install Monitask using dnf (Fedora 22 and above):
dnf check-update
sudo dnf install monitask
Or on older versions using yum:
yum check-update
sudo yum install monitask
