Chapter 2. Installing the CLI

Procedure

1. Download binary files for your system architecture.

   Choose the latest Version for 2.2 at Software Downloads.

   For a Mac with Apple silicon, use Rosetta 2 and the Skupper CLI for Mac on x86-64 download.

2. Unzip the downloaded file and place the Skupper executable on your PATH.

3. Verify installation:

   $ skupper version
   client version                 2.2.1-rh-1

Procedure

1. Use the subscription-manager command to subscribe to the required package repositories. Replace <version> with 2 for the main release stream or 2.2 for the long term support (LTS) release stream.

   Note

   Replacing <version> with 2 installs the latest 2.x version, while 2.2 limits updates to the 2.2.x long term support release stream.
