Chapter 2. Installing the Enterprise Contract command line

Prerequisites

  • A working Red Hat Trusted Artifact Signer installation on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform version 4.13 or higher.
  • A workstation with the cosign and oc binary files installed.
  • Access to the OpenShift web console.

Procedure

  1. Download the ec binary file from the OpenShift cluster.

    1. Log in to the OpenShift web console. From the home page, click the ? icon, select Command line tools, go to the ec download section, then click the link for your platform.

    2. Open a terminal on your workstation, decompress the binary .gz file, then set the execute bit:

      Example

      gunzip ec-amd64.gz
chmod +x ec-amd64
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  2. Move and rename the binary to a location within your $PATH environment:

    Example

    sudo mv ec-amd64 /usr/local/bin/ec
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Verification

  • Run the ec version command. The result should be the version of the Enterprise Contract CLI that you just installed.
