Typical Installation

artifact is compiled for linux, mac and windows. You can find releases on the github release page.

For Linux and Mac, simply download and unpack the tarball with tar -zxvf <release_name>.tar.gz. Then put it somewhere in your PATH

You can then update to the newest version with art update

Windows

The recommended method of installation for windows is to use the scoop package manager.

First, install scoop from a powershell terminal:

iex (new-object net.webclient).downloadstring('https://get.scoop.sh')

Then install artifact:

scoop install artifact
