Show HN: Install GitHub release binaries from the CLI

• efrecon 5y ago
  I usually use binenv (https://github.com/devops-works/binenv https://github.com/devops-works/binenv) to install binaries from releases. But maybe I misunderstood and this isn't the same.

    nice! looks good, didn't know about it. I'll try it by installing it with my tool ;) binenv supports versioning which is nice, and reads from a maintained list (https://github.com/devops-works/binenv/blob/develop/distributions/distributions.yaml https://github.com/devops-works/binenv/blob/develop/distribu...). mine is just simpler, a single script, and accepts any user/repo

      I also wrote one of those scripts, bin/tarinstall (https://github.com/efrecon/bininstall https://github.com/efrecon/bininstall). It even doubles as a GitHub Action to install stuff you need for your pipeline. binenv usually performs better and handles versions more easily, so ... I sometimes install binenv using bininstall and use binenv to install the rest... hmmm...
