Install the Respresso CLI

Current version of the CLI is 2.0.0.

Install on Linux

Once you install the CLI, the respresso command will become available from all of your terminals.

Please note that, currently, the Respresso CLI executable for Linux is not signed. You can verify the downloaded executable's hash to make sure it is matching the one released by Respresso. Instructions are listed below.

Superuser rights

When you run the command, you will need to type in the superuser password, as /usr/local/bin/respresso is a usually protected location.
(The Respresso CLI won't gain any superuser rights, just the installation needs it.)

This command does the followings:

  1. Downloads the CLI to the current directory.
  2. [Executed with sudo] Moves the downloaded executable to /usr/local/bin/respresso. This allows you to access it from anywhere with the respresso command
  3. [Executed with sudo] Grants execution permission to the executable. This allows the system to execute the file.

Manual installation

Installing the Respresso CLI can be done similarly as the above command does it:

  1. Download the Respresso CLI executable:
    Download
  2. Move the downloaded file to /usr/local/bin/respresso
  3. Grant the execution permission to the file. You can do it as a superuser with this command: chmod +x /usr/local/bin/respresso

Verifying the downloaded executable's checksum

There is no official way to verify the Linux executable's issuer, but you can check that the checksum is matching the official releases.

The current, 2.0.0 version must match the 453db309f9e4230049ca48c6ba690fdb15c908f15f11140ddd963bfc2c9cd640 SHA-256 checksum.

You can use the sha256sum command from GNU Coreutils (preinstalled in most distributions) to compute the hash of the downloaded file:
sha256sum respresso
