Install Postman

_instructions.md

⚠ ⚠ ⚠ WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! I no longer use Postman and don't test these instructions.

WARNING: this gist is only for installation and should not be used to update Postman. Please use auto-update feature. WARNING: script was updated to use ~ instead of /opt. Make sure that you have write permissions for location, because otherwise it can cause some problems

How to:

1. Run install-postman.sh . Make sure that it has execute permissions =)

chmod +x install-postman.sh
./install-postman.sh`

2. Create Postman.desktop file, so that you could see it the laucher.

touch ~/.local/share/applications/Postman.desktop

And copy-paste data from Postman.desktop . Don't forget to replace USERNAME with your user for Icon: line (it can't expand ~ :( )

install-postman.sh

#!/bin/bash
cd /tmp || exit
echo "Downloading Postman ..."
wget -q https://dl.pstmn.io/download/latest/linux?arch=64 -O postman.tar.gz
tar -xzf postman.tar.gz
rm postman.tar.gz

echo "Installing to opt..."
if [ -d "~/Postman" ];then
    rm -rf ~/Postman
fi
mv Postman ~/Postman

echo "Creating symbolic link..."
if [ -L "/usr/bin/postman" ];then
    sudo rm -f /usr/bin/postman
fi
sudo ln -s ~/Postman/Postman /usr/bin/postman

echo "Installation completed successfully."
echo "You can use Postman!"

I've followed all your steps it successfully installed in my OS. The Postman icon shows in my applications but when I click on it nothing happened. The Postman did not open.

Below is my Kali Linux Version.
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Kali
Description: Kali GNU/Linux Rolling
Release: kali-rolling
Codename: kali-rolling

Nice, thank you!

Thanks!

What's the point of the symbolic link? @aviskase

Do apt-get install gconf2

Nice, thank you!

sudo snap install postman
just run this command and installed

A tad tidy up of all steps in the command below. Installs the latest version of Postman (or upgrades it if exists), libconf-2-4, and creates a desktop entry.

$ cd
$ curl -O https://gist.githubusercontent.com/vald-phoenix/7717a9c2e574aa0ca1ceb6685b4f1429/raw/3287a4670431cfd7ce4601195b910b51b864d847/install-postman.sh && chmod +x install-postman.sh && bash install-postman.sh
