Installing the mittwald CLI
On macOS
On macOS, the recommended way of installing the CLI is using Homebrew:
$ brew tap mittwald/cli
$ brew install mw
$ mw --help
You can also use Homebrew to upgrade the CLI:
$ brew upgrade mw
On Windows
Retrieve the latest release package (*.exe
file) from our releases page, and run the installer. After running the installer, you should be able to use the mw
command on either the CMD prompt or PowerShell.
On Linux
Currently, we do not provide a package for Linux distributions. However, you can use the NPM installation method, or run the CLI using Docker.
On any operating system
Using NPM
With a local Node.js installation, you can install the mittwald CLI using NPM:
$ npm install -g @mittwald/cli
$ mw --help
Using Docker
If you have Docker installed on your system, you can use the mittwald/cli
Docker image instead of installing the CLI on your system. In case of the Docker container, authentication works a bit differently: Make sure that there is an environment variable MITTWALD_API_TOKEN
present on your system; you can then pass that environment variable into your container:
$ export MITTWALD_API_TOKEN=xxx
$ docker run \
--rm \
-it \
-e MITTWALD_API_TOKEN \
mittwald/cli --help
