The Linode CLI is the command line tool for interacting with your Linode services.

This is our 12th early developer release of our command line tool. We're working toward a tool that will eventually allow you to interact with all Linode services.

Please help us make Linode CLI even more awesome by sending us your feedback and ideas. It is our goal to shape the tool to meet your needs.

Installing on OS X from Homebrew

Homebrew is a powerful and easy-to-use package manager for Mac OS X. If you don't already have Homebrew installed on your system, you'll want to follow their excellent installation instructions first: http://brew.sh. Homebrew can be installed with a single command.

Installation:

Linode CLI is distributed through the Linode Homebrew tap.

Once Homebrew is installed on your system, add the Linode tap and install Linode CLI with the following:

brew tap linode/cli
brew install linode-cli

Keeping up-to-date:

Homebrew makes it easy to keep current with the latest and greatest version of Linode CLI:

brew update
brew upgrade linode-cli

How to Get the Source

Linode CLI is hosted on GitHub and is open source, dual-licensed under the GPLv2 and the Perl Artistic License. This is a developer release, so for now, depending on your system, you may need to install dependencies manually as described in the README.
