Install the CLI
One binary per operating system. You do not need Go or a compiler.
The Retrojet CLI is a single file. Put the binary for your system somewhere on your PATH and you are done.
Pick your binary
| File | System |
|---|---|
retrojet-darwin-arm64 | macOS on Apple silicon (M1 and later) |
retrojet-darwin-amd64 | macOS on Intel |
retrojet-linux-amd64 | Linux x86_64 |
retrojet-linux-arm64 | Linux ARM64, for example Graviton or a 64-bit Raspberry Pi |
retrojet-windows-amd64.exe | Windows x86_64 |
Each release also ships a checksums.txt with the SHA-256 of every file, so you can check that a download is complete
and unchanged:
shasum -a 256 retrojet-darwin-arm64 # hash of the file you downloaded
grep retrojet-darwin-arm64 checksums.txt # the published hash, must be the same
Install script
curl -fsSL https://retrojetdev.cloud/compose.sh | sh
checksums.txt, and add it to your PATH. Use the manual steps below for now.Manual install
macOS and Linux
The example uses the Apple silicon binary. Swap the file name for your system from the table above.
mkdir -p ~/.retrojet/bin
cp retrojet-darwin-arm64 ~/.retrojet/bin/retrojet
chmod +x ~/.retrojet/bin/retrojet
echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.retrojet/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
On Linux with bash, write the last line to ~/.bashrc instead. Open a new terminal afterwards.
macOS blocks binaries downloaded through a browser until Apple has signed them, with the message “cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified”. Remove the quarantine flag once:
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ~/.retrojet/bin/retrojet
Files downloaded with curl, like the install script will do, never get this flag.
Windows
- Create a folder, for example
C:\Tools\retrojet. - Copy
retrojet-windows-amd64.exeinto it and rename it toretrojet.exe. - Add the folder to your
Pathunder Settings → System → About → Advanced system settings → Environment Variables. - Open a new terminal.
