Getting started is easy! A snap package for ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors is available in the Snapcraft Store.
Snaps contain all the necessary dependencies, so you just need to have snapd installed on your system.
Most modern Linux distributions come with snapd pre-installed. You can check if it's running by typing snap \--version in your terminal.
If it's not installed, you can easily add it. For example, on Ubuntu and other Debian-based distros, run the following commands. The first command updates your package list, and the second installs snapd.
# apt update
# apt install snapd
For instructions on other Linux distributions, please visit the official Snapcraft documentation.
Once snapd is ready, you can install the editors with a single command. This will download and install the latest stable version from the Snap Store.
# snap install onlyoffice-desktopeditors
That's it! The application is now installed and ready to use.
You can launch the editors in two ways:
-
From the terminal:
$ snap run onlyoffice-desktopeditors -
From the application menu:
Look for ONLYOFFICE in your computer's application menu (usually under an "Office" category).
Here are some helpful commands for managing the Snap package.
To open and save documents on USB drives or external hard disks, you need to grant the snap permission to access removable media.
# snap connect onlyoffice-desktopeditors:removable-media
If you need to remove the application, simply run:
# snap remove onlyoffice-desktopeditors
