Setup linux java environment
wget java file (can not use wget directly, need some vars)
1 | wget --no-check-certificate --no-cookies --header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u111-b14/jdk-8u111-linux-x64.tar.gz |
unzip java file
1 | tar -xvzf jdk-8u111-linux-x64.tar.gz |
- f: this must be the last flag of the command, and the tar file must be immediately after. It tells tar the name and path of the compressed file.
- z: tells tar to decompress the archive using gzip
- x: tar can collect files or extract them. x does the latter.
- v: makes tar talk a lot. Verbose output shows you all the files being extracted.
setup java environment variables -> .bashrc
1 | JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jdk_home |
