macOS installation

Install BPCLI on Intel or Apple Silicon Macs with `.pkg` packages or standalone binaries.

Download

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

Validate the package

Use the SHA1 command shown on the CLI page when you need to verify the .pkg package or binary. If sha1sum is not available, install a compatible checksum tool or use the validation command shown for your environment.

Standalone binary

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

./bpcli help

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

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

Add the same line to .zshrc when the change should persist. If macOS blocks the standalone binary, confirm that it came from the official CLI page and approve execution according to the security prompt shown by the operating system.

Installer

Open the downloaded .pkg file and complete the installation wizard, or use the generated installer command:

sudo installer -pkg bpcli_<version>_<arch>.pkg -target /
bpcli version
bpcli help
