Requisites
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
- [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org) (>= v4)
|
|
- [Git](https://git-scm.com)
|
|
- The following executables should be correctly installed in your shell environment:
|
|
- `ssh`: Any recent version of the OpenSSH ssh client (required by `resin sync` and `resin ssh`)
|
|
- if you need `ssh` to work behind the proxy you also need [`proxytunnel`](http://proxytunnel.sourceforge.net/) installed (available as `proxytunnel` package for Ubuntu, for example)
|
|
- `rsync`: >= 2.6.9 (required by `resin sync`)
|
|
|
|
##### Windows Support
|
|
|
|
`resin sync` and `resin ssh` have not been thoroughly tested on the standard Windows cmd.exe shell. We recommend using bash (or a similar) shell, like Bash for Windows 10 or [Git for Windows](https://git-for-windows.github.io/).
|
|
|
|
If you still want to use `cmd.exe` you will have to use a package manager like MinGW or chocolatey. For MinGW the steps are:
|
|
|
|
1. Install [MinGW](http://www.mingw.org).
|
|
2. Install the `msys-rsync` and `msys-openssh` packages.
|
|
3. Add MinGW to the `%PATH%` if this hasn't been done by the installer already. The location where the binaries are places is usually `C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin`, but it can vary if you selected a different location in the installer.
|
|
4. Copy your SSH keys to `%homedrive%%homepath\.ssh`.
|
|
5. If you need `ssh` to work behind the proxy you also need to install [proxytunnel](http://proxytunnel.sourceforge.net/)

Plugins
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
The Resin CLI can be extended with plugins to automate laborious tasks and overall provide a better experience when working with Resin.io. Check the [plugin development tutorial](https://github.com/resin-io/resin-plugin-hello) to learn how to build your own!

FAQ
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
### Where is my configuration file?
|
|
|
|
The per-user configuration file lives in `$HOME/.resinrc.yml` or `%UserProfile%\_resinrc.yml`, in Unix based operating systems and Windows respectively.
|
|
|
|
The Resin CLI also attempts to read a `resinrc.yml` file in the current directory, which takes precedence over the per-user configuration file.
|
|
|
|
### How do I point the Resin CLI to staging?
|
|
|
|
The easiest way is to set the `RESINRC_RESIN_URL=resinstaging.io` environment variable.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can edit your configuration file and set `resinUrl: resinstaging.io` to persist this setting.
|
|
|
|
### How do I make the Resin CLI persist data in another directory?
|
|
|
|
The Resin CLI persists your session token, as well as cached images in `$HOME/.resin` or `%UserProfile%\_resin`.
|
|
|
|
Pointing the Resin CLI to persist data in another location is necessary in certain environments, like a server, where there is no home directory, or a device running Resin OS, which erases all data after a restart.
|
|
|
|
You can accomplish this by setting `RESINRC_DATA_DIRECTORY=/opt/resin` or adding `dataDirectory: /opt/resin` to your configuration file, replacing `/opt/resin` with your desired directory.
