Installation of the Epinio CLI

The epinio cli can be used to interact with a cluster that has Epinio installed on it. Application developers shouldn't need to access the cluster directly. Requests to the Epinio API server are authenticated with Basic Auth. No direct access to the cluster is required (e.g. through kubectl).

From Homebrew (Linux and Mac)

Epinio has its own formula available in the homebrew/core tap.

brew install epinio

Alternatively, if you want to get the latest Epinio CLI faster, there is a custom tap you can use:

brew tap epinio/tap
brew install epinio/tap/epinio
