CLI installation

1. Run the command:

   curl https://storage.yandexcloud.net/yandexcloud-yc/install.sh | bash
   

   The script will install the CLI and add the executable file path to the environment variable PATH.

2. Restart your terminal for the changes to take effect.

The CLI supports command completion for the bash shell. For command completion to work:

1. Install the Homebrew package manager.

2. Install the bash-completion package:

   brew install bash-completion
   

   The installation script will update the ~/.bash_profile file:

   # The next line updates PATH for Yandex Cloud CLI.
   if [ -f '/Users/<username>/yandex-cloud/path.bash.inc' ]; then source '/Users/<username>/yandex-cloud/path.bash.inc'; fi
   # The next line enables shell command completion for yc.
   if [ -f '/Users/<username>/yandex-cloud/completion.bash.inc' ]; then source '/Users/<username>/yandex-cloud/completion.bash.inc'; fi
   

3. After the installation is complete, add the following lines to the ~/.bash_profile file. Insert them above the lines automatically added by the installation script.

   if [ -f $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion ]; then
   . $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion
   fi
   

4. Restart your terminal.

For Windows, the CLI can be installed using PowerShell and cmd:

• To install using PowerShell:

  1. Run the command:

     iex (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://storage.yandexcloud.net/yandexcloud-yc/install.ps1')
     

  2. The installation script will ask whether to add the path to yc to the PATH variable:

     Add yc installation dir to your PATH? [Y/n]
     

  3. Enter Y. After this, you can use the Yandex.Cloud CLI without restarting the command shell.

• To install using cmd:

  1. Run the command:

     @"%SystemRoot%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -Command "iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://storage.yandexcloud.net/yandexcloud-yc/install.ps1'))" && SET "PATH=%PATH%;%USERPROFILE%\yandex-cloud\bin"
     

  2. The installation script will ask whether to add the path to yc to the PATH variable:

     Add yc installation dir to your PATH? [Y/n]
     

  3. Enter Y.

  4. Restart your terminal for the changes to take effect.
