Node-Client Installation

Node-Client Requirements

1. Host OS is Ubuntu 24.04, 22.04, 20.04, Rocky Linux 9.2, RHEL 9.2, Windows (amd64) or MacOS (amd64 or arm64)

Install Node-Client

The file naming convention is node-client-<version>-<distribution>. In this guide we will use version 0.3.0. Please see Release for alternative versions and distributions.

1. Download a release tarball from Download
2. Extract Node-Client

 tar -xvf node-client-0.3.0-<distribution>.tgz;

3. Deploy Node-Client

   • Linux OSes

     After unpacking the deployment package, run deploy-node-client.sh. deploy-node-client.sh checks dependencies and previously installed versions. It will install any missing dependencies and deploy the node-client binary.

     Supported Parameters for deploy-node-client.sh:

     • -a Deploy all : default
     • -d Deploy node-client and check package dependencies. Skip version and Ubuntu ISO checking.
     • -l <version> link the installed node-client to this specific version
     • -h print usage

     cd node-client-0.3.0;
     ./deploy-node-client.sh;
     note

     node-client deployment on Linux systems provides autocompletion.

   • Windows / MacOS

     For Windows and MacOS, no deployment script is provided. In the MacOS package, only a node-client binary is supplied, and in the Windows one, only an .exe.
     You can run it through a terminal or powershell as a normal binary. For convenience, you can put it into a directory in your $PATH.

     note

     No autocompletion is provided for Windows/MacOS.
