Update Native Postman on Ubuntu

How to update Postman on Ubuntu 16.04

Thanks for tuning in to this post, about how to update your native Postman application to the latest version.

Let’s begin!

First of all, you download the latest linux package from https://www.getpostman.com/.

downloadLinux

 

Then you open the tar.gz package from your Download folder, and you press the “Extract”-button in the upper left corner. (Just extract it into the Download folder, it will be moved later on).

ExtractIt

 

Now your download folder should look like this.

Extracted

 

Then we open the “Terminal” and put this command to remove the old Postman application.

sudo rm -rf /opt/Postman

Then we need to copy the extracted Postman folder to the old Postman folders position. This is achieved by putting this command in the terminal.

sudo mv Downloads/Postman /opt/

Now you can startup your postman application again, and it is now up-to-date.

 

Have a great day!

8 Simple Steps to installing Cordova/PhoneGap Tools in Visual Studio 2013 Community

If you are looking for a great tool to create simple apps, developed with HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I suggest you use Cordova/PhoneGap.

I have created this little 8 simple steps guide on how to install Cordova in VS2013, because in the future I’m going to write a few more blog post about developing and creating apps within VS2013 using the Cordova Tools.

It’s 8 simple steps, and I expect that you’ve got VS2013 Community installed, so here we go!

Step 1 – Open VS2013 Community.

Step 2 – Click on FILE -> New -> Project

Cordova VS2013 - 1

Step 3 – On the left side choose JavaScript, and in the middle you now see “Install Tools for Apache Cordova”. Double click it.

Step 4 – A browser will open with this window. You can now close your VS2013 and then click on the “Install the Multi-Device Hybrid App Tools”-button.

Step 5 – Save the file.

Step 6 – In my case when I try and run the downloaded file, I get this error about “Windows Management Framework 3.0” not being installed on my computer. If this does not appear on your screen, please jump to Step 7, otherwise click “Cancel” and follow the next steps.

Step 6.1 – The ”Windows Management Framework 3.0” can be downloaded from Microsoft. So either google it or click here.

Step 6.2 – Click “Download”

Cordova VS2013 - 7  

Step 6.3 – You will have som installation files to choose from. Depending on your operating system, see below what file you should select.

Step 6.4 – Install the downloaded file, it will ask for permission to install update for Windows, click Yes. You will have to accept license and terms, and when the installation has finished you must reboot your computer.

Cordova VS2013 - 10

Step 7 – Click the checkbox to agree to the license terms and so on. Click “Next”.

Cordova VS2013 - 11

Step 8 – If not all Third Party software is checked, then click “Select All” and click “INSTALL”.

Cordova VS2013 - 12

You should now have installed Cordova Tools for Visual Studio 2013 Community. You can now create a project, just follow Step 1Step 2 and Step 3 – except there is now this “Blank App” (see below). So create your project and play around.

Cordova VS2013 - 13

Next post will be about creating Projects and testing it on an Android device.
