Patch release for the npm launcher fix (#41, #42): `idx` and `idx-mcp` now install their binary on first run when the package manager skipped postinstall, as npm 12 does under `npx` with its `allow-scripts` policy (and pnpm 10+ and bun by default).

# Install script
|
|
|
|
`install.sh` installs a prebuilt `idx` binary from GitHub Releases. It is the
|
|
fastest path on Linux and macOS and needs no Rust toolchain, Node, or sudo.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/0xrsydn/idx-cli/main/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each release also carries a copy of the script as a release asset, so a
|
|
versioned URL stays stable:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -fsSL https://github.com/0xrsydn/idx-cli/releases/download/v0.3.2/install.sh | sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## What it does
|
|
|
|
1. Detects the OS and CPU with `uname` (Rosetta shells on Apple Silicon get
|
|
the native arm64 build).
|
|
2. Resolves the newest `vX.Y.Z` release through the GitHub API. It does not use
|
|
`/releases/latest`, because this repo also publishes non-app releases such
|
|
as `ownership-snapshot-current`.
|
|
3. Downloads the binary and `SHA256SUMS`, and refuses to install on a checksum
|
|
mismatch.
|
|
4. Runs `idx version` from the download to confirm it executes here.
|
|
5. Moves the binary into the install directory in one step, replacing any
|
|
previous install.
|
|
6. Prints a PATH hint when needed, plus notes about optional helper tools.
|
|
|
|
It never edits shell profiles and never calls a system package manager. On
|
|
NixOS it suggests the flake instead, and when `mutool` or `curl_chrome*` are
|
|
missing it prints the matching package-manager command so you can install
|
|
them yourself.
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
| Flag | Environment | Default |
|
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
|
| `--version <tag>` | `IDX_VERSION` | newest `vX.Y.Z` release |
|
|
| `--dir <path>` | `IDX_INSTALL_DIR` | `$HOME/.local/bin` |
|
|
| | `IDX_GITHUB_URL` | `https://github.com` (for mirrors) |
|
|
| | `IDX_GITHUB_API` | `https://api.github.com` (for mirrors) |
|
|
|
|
Pass flags through the pipe with `sh -s --`:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/0xrsydn/idx-cli/main/install.sh | sh -s -- --version v0.3.2 --dir ~/bin
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Supported platforms
|
|
|
|
Same assets as the npm package: `idx-linux-x64`, `idx-linux-arm64` (static
|
|
musl builds), `idx-darwin-arm64`, `idx-darwin-x64`. Windows users can run the
|
|
script inside WSL.
|
|
|
|
## Uninstall
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
rm ~/.local/bin/idx
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Config and cache live in `~/.config/idx/` and `~/.cache/idx/`.
|
|
|
|
## Tests
|
|
|
|
`scripts/install-sh-test.sh` runs the script against a local fake release
|
|
server, so it needs no network. CI runs it with `sh` and `dash` on Linux and
|
|
with `sh` on macOS, plus ShellCheck.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
scripts/install-sh-test.sh
|
|
INSTALL_SH_SHELL=dash scripts/install-sh-test.sh
|
|
```
