Installation

Downloading

The application can be downloaded from the latest release page, found at https://github.com/on4kjm/FLEcli/releases.

The application is available in the following packaging:

  • FLEcli_v..._macOS_64-bit.tar.gz is the MacOS version.
  • FLEcli_v..._windows_32-bit.zip is the Windows version. Only the 32 bit is proposed as it should work also on older Windows version.
  • FLEcli_v..._Linux_64-bit.tar.gz is the 64 bits distribution for Linux.
  • FLEcli_v..._Linux_32-bit.tar.gz is the 32 bits distribution for Linux
  • FLEcli_v..._Linux_arm.tar.gz is the 32 bits ARM (instruction set 6) distribution (for RaspberryPi older models for example)
  • FLEcli_v..._Linux_arm64.tar.gz is the 64 bits ARM (instruction set 6) distribution

After downloading the appropriate archive, you can validate its sha256 and compare it with the value in the checksum.txt file.

Compiling

The application can also be compiled from sources if Golang is available. How to proceed is out of the scope of this notice.

Installing

Unpack it in a convenient location. Depending on your Operating System, you can make it available from any location:

  • Adding the directory to the path for Windows
  • Creating a (permanent) alias on Linux or MacOS
  • Moving the executable to a directory that is in the path, such as /usr/local/bin for Linux or MacOs.

HomeBrew

Currently there is no Homebrew installation available.

Docker

The application is also available as a docker container. It can be started with: docker run --rm -i --user $(id -u):$(id -g) -v $(pwd):/FLEcli_data on4kjm/flecli <FLEcli command>. If no command is specified, help is displayed. To avoid typing the whole command, an alias is recomended as described in the docker specific instructions.

Important note: when specifying the path of a file (input or output), it must be relative to the directory the container was started in.

MacOS

WARNING: at this stage, the MacOS binary is not signed. It will fail to load on the recent OS version unless a very permissive security setting is enable (which is not advised).

Please find here a detailed procedure to use FLEcli on a Mac despite the missing signature.
