Setup the CLI

Linux
To get Akamas CLI installed on Linux, run the following commands:
curl -o akamas_cli -O https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/akamas/cli/$(curl https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/akamas/cli/stable.txt)/linux_64/akamas
sudo mv akamas_cli /usr/local/bin/akamas
chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/akamas
You can now run the Akamas CLI following by running the akamas command.
In some installations, the /usr/local/bin folder is not present in the PATH environment variable. This prevents you from using akamas without specifying the complete file location. To fix this issue you can add an entry to the PATH system environment variable or move the executable to another folder in your PATH.
Auto-completion
To enable auto-completion on Linux systems with a bash shell (requires bash 4.4+), run the following commands:
curl -O https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/akamas/cli/$(curl https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/akamas/cli/stable.txt)/linux_64/akamas_autocomplete.sh
mkdir -p ~/.akamas
mv akamas_autocomplete.sh ~/.akamas
echo '. ~/.akamas/akamas_autocomplete.sh' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
Windows
To install the Akamas CLI on Windows run the following command from the Powershell:
Invoke-WebRequest "https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/akamas/cli/$($(Invoke-WebRequest https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/akamas/cli/stable.txt | Select-Object -Expand Content) -replace '\n', '')/win_64/akamas.exe" -OutFile akamas.exe
You can now run the Akamas CLI following by running .\akamas in the same folder.
To invoke the akamas CLI from any folder, create a akamas folder (such as C:\Program Files\akamas), and move there the akamas.exe file. Then, add an entry to the PATH system environment variable with the value C:\Program Files\akamas. Now, you can invoke the CLI from any folder, by simply running the akamas command.
The Akamas CLI can be accessed by simply running the akamascommand.
