Linux Debian installation

Download

Open https://boilerplate.com/cli, select Linux - Debian, choose the required version and architecture, then download the .deb installer or standalone bpcli binary. Debian builds are available for x64 and arm64.

The CLI page can also generate a wget command for the selected file. Use the generated path for the selected version, architecture and file type rather than copying an example URL from another build.

Validate the package

When the CLI page shows a SHA1 value, validate the downloaded .deb package or standalone binary before running it on shared or production infrastructure.

Standalone binary

Run the downloaded binary directly when you do not want a package installation:

Copy./bpcli help

To make it available globally, place it in a stable directory and add that directory to PATH:

Copyexport PATH=$PATH:/path/to/bpcli

Add the same line to .bashrc when the change should persist. If the binary is downloaded without execute permissions, run chmod +x ./bpcli before executing it.

Installer

Install the downloaded .deb package, then close and reopen the terminal:

Copysudo dpkg -i bpcli_<version>_<arch>.deb
bpcli version
bpcli help
