Manual Installation Instructions¶
Mac/Linux Installation¶
If you cannot / wish not to use the shell script to install for Linux or OSX, you can alternatively install dpm manually by running this set of commands in your terminal:
The latest stable release version can be found by hitting the following URL:
VERSION="$(curl -sS "https://get.digitalasset.com/install/latest")"
And you can then use this to retrieve the tarball of the full installation, extract, and install, as outlined in the full instructions below.
Manual installation for Mac/Linux¶
# get latest version number
VERSION="$(curl -sS "https://get.digitalasset.com/install/latest")"
# set your architecture to either amd64 | arm64
ARCH="$(uname -m | sed 's/x86_64/amd64/;s/aarch64/arm64/')"
# set your OS to either darwin or linux
OS="$(uname | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')"
# pull down appropriate tarball for your OS and architecture
readonly TARBALL="dpm-${VERSION}-${OS}-${ARCH}.tar.gz"
# determine location of tarball to download
TARBALL_URL="https://get.digitalasset.com/install/dpm-sdk/${TARBALL}"
# make tmpdir
TMPDIR="$(mktemp -d)"
# download tarball
curl -SLf "${TARBALL_URL}" --output "${TMPDIR}/${TARBALL}" --progress-bar "$@"
# create directory to extract into
extracted="${TMPDIR}/extracted"
mkdir -p "${extracted}"
# untar to extracted directory
tar xzf "${TMPDIR}/${TARBALL}" -C "${extracted}" --strip-components 1
# bootstrap dpm
"${extracted}/bin/dpm" bootstrap "${extracted}"
# verify dpm version runs and does not return an error
if ! "${extracted}/bin/dpm" version; then
echo "dpm version failed" >&2
exit 1
fi
# cleanup tmpdir
rm -rf "${TMPDIR}"
Windows Installation¶
Download and unpack the windows dpm-sdk archive (.zip), then:
Manual installation script for Windows¶
1# Extract the downloaded zip ($ZIP_PATH) to temp directory ($EXTRACTED)
2# Avoid using the system's temp directory as the user may not have rights to it
3New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $EXTRACTED | Out-Null
4Expand-Archive -Path $ZIP_PATH -DestinationPath $EXTRACTED
5
6# Optionally, override the TMP and DPM_HOME environment variable to point to directories other than the default,
7# as the user might not have rights to the default directories.
8# (You might also want to persist these variables as DPM uses them on every invocation)
9$env:TMP = "<user-owned temporary directory>"
10$env:DPM_HOME = "<user-owned directory>"
11
12& "$EXTRACTED\windows-amd64\bin\dpm.exe" bootstrap $EXTRACTED\windows-amd64
Unstable Version Manual Installation¶
Preview / unstable versions are also available for experimentation, though it is always recommended to use the stable versions listed above instead.
Unstable Mac / Linux¶
Follow the Mac/Linux Installation instructions to install an unstable version, but note the differences in VERSION and TARBALL_URL.
The latest unstable release version can be found by hitting the following URL:
VERSION="$(curl -sS "https://get.digitalasset.com/unstable/install/latest")"
The unstable tarball can be retrieved from the following URL:
# determine location of tarball to download
TARBALL_URL="https://get.digitalasset.com/unstable/install/dpm-sdk/${TARBALL}"
Unstable Windows¶
Download and unpack the latest windows unstable dpm-sdk archive (.zip), then follow Windows Installation instructions.
