|
|
||||||
## Download Instructions
|
## via a package manager
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Go to the [GitHub Actions page](https://github.com/iwannet/hey/actions) for this repository.
|
|
||||||
2. Find the latest successful workflow run.
|
|
||||||
3. Click on the "Artifacts" section to see the available files.
|
|
||||||
4. Download the file that matches your operating system (e.g., `hey-linux`, `hey-macos`, `hey-windows`). (you may need to login to be able to download it)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Usage Instructions
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Extract the downloaded file to a directory of your choice.
|
|
||||||
2. Open a terminal or command prompt and navigate to the directory where you extracted the file.
|
|
||||||
3. Run the executable using the following command:
|
|
||||||
- Linux/macOS: `./hey-linux`
|
|
||||||
- Windows: `.\hey`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The executable should now run on your system.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Integrate with the System
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To make the `hey` executable easily accessible, you can place it in a directory that is already in your system's `PATH` environment variable, such as `/usr/local/bin/`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Linux/macOS
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory where you extracted the `hey` folder.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Run the following command to copy the folder to the `/usr/local/bin/` directory (you may need to use `sudo` depending on your user permissions):
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`sudo cp hey-linux /usr/local/bin/hey`
|
|
||||||
3. After running the command, you should be able to run the `hey` command from any directory in your terminal.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Windows
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### 1. **Add to PATH using PowerShell**:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To make the `hey` command available globally, you can add the directory containing the `hey-windows.exe` executable to your system's `PATH` environment variable using PowerShell.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Open PowerShell as an administrator.
|
|
||||||
2. Run the following command, replacing `C:\path\to\hey` with the actual path to the directory containing the `hey.exe` executable:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```powershell
|
|
||||||
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", $env:PATH + ";C:\path\to\hey\", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::Machine)
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Close and reopen your PowerShell or command prompt window for the changes to take effect.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
After running these steps, you should be able to run the `hey` command from any directory in your PowerShell or command prompt.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### 2. **Add to PATH** manually:
|
|
||||||
To make the `hey` command available globally, you can add the directory containing the `hey.exe` executable to your system's `PATH` environment variable.
|
|
||||||
- Open the Start menu, search for "Environment Variables", and click on "Edit the system environment variables".
|
|
||||||
- Click on the "Environment Variables" button.
|
|
||||||
- In the "System Variables" section, find the "Path" variable, select it, and click "Edit".
|
|
||||||
- Click "New" and add the full path to the directory containing the `hey.exe` executable.
|
|
||||||
- Click "OK" to save the changes.
