Step 1: Install the CLI

Download via curl

For Linux/OS X run the following commands in your terminal and you are ready to go:

curl -L https://files.sloppy.io/sloppy-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /tmp/sloppy
sudo cp /tmp/sloppy /usr/local/bin/sloppy
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/sloppy

Download manually

Alternatively download the client for your operating system, copy the binary named sloppy to your favourite PATH (e.g. /usr/local/bin) and make it executable (not needed for Windows) with:

chmod +x /usr/local/bin/sloppy
