<h1>Installing GCLI</h1>
<h2>Through package manager</h2>
<p>If you're on FreeBSD you can just install gcli by running the
following command:</p>
<pre><code># pkg install gcli
</code></pre>
<h2>Compile the source code</h2>
<p>Other operating systems currently require manual compilation and
installation.</p>
<h3>Windows NT Notes</h3>
<p>It is entirely possible to build gcli on Windows using
<a href="https://msys2.org">MSYS2</a>. Please follow their instructions on
how to set up a development environment.</p>
<h3>Generic build instructions</h3>
<p>For this purpose go to
<a href="https://herrhotzenplotz.de/gcli/releases">https://herrhotzenplotz.de/gcli/releases</a>
and choose the latest release. Then download one of the tarballs.</p>
<p>For version 1.1.0 this would be:</p>
<p>https://herrhotzenplotz.de/gcli/releases/gcli-1.1.0/gcli-1.1.0.tar.xz</p>
<p>Now that you have a link, you can download it, extract it, compile the
code and install it:</p>
<pre><code>$ mkdir ~/build
$ cd ~/build
$ curl -4LO https://herrhotzenplotz.de/gcli/releases/gcli-1.1.0/gcli-1.1.0.tar.xz
% Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current
Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed
100 342k 100 342k 0 0 2739k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 2736k
$ ls
gcli-1.1.0.tar.xz
$
</code></pre>
<p>Install the dependencies for building gcli:</p>
<p>e.g. on Debian systems:</p>
<pre><code># apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev pkgconf build-essential
</code></pre>
<p>or on MSYS2:</p>
<pre><code>$ pacman -S libcurl-devel pkgconf
</code></pre>
<p>Extract the tarball:</p>
<pre><code>$ tar xf gcli-1.1.0.tar.xz
$ cd gcli-1.1.0
</code></pre>
<p>Configure, build and install gcli:</p>
<pre><code>$ ./configure
...
$ make
...
$ make install
</code></pre>
<p>Check that the shell finds gcli:</p>
<pre><code>$ which gcli
/usr/local/bin/gcli
$
$ gcli version
gcli 1.1.0 (amd64-unknown-freebsd13.2)
Using libcurl/8.1.2 OpenSSL/1.1.1t zlib/1.2.13 libpsl/0.21.2 (+libidn2/2.3.4) libssh2/1.11.0 nghttp2/1.53.0

</code></pre>
<h3>Advanced Windows Environment Setup</h3>
<p>In case you want to use the installed gcli from outside MSYS2 (e.g.
in cmd.exe) you may wish to update the <code>Path</code> environment variable
and add the <code>C:\msys2\usr\bin</code> directory to it. Make sure you have
the library paths set up correctly.</p>
