# BlenderUpdaterCLI

## Python 3 command line tool to update Blender to the latest buildbot version

If you want to support me, feel free to donate on Ko-Fi!



## Usage

### Minimal example:

```python BlenderUpdaterCLI.py -b 2.90.0 -p PATH```

#### Required flags:

* ```-p``` PATH (add a valid path where you want the downloaded archive to be extracted to)

* ```-b``` BLENDER (Desired Blender version - for example ```-b 2.90.0```)

#### Additional flag:

* ```-o``` OPERATINGSYSTEM (```windows``` or ```linux```) 

If this flag is omitted, the script autodetects the OS it's currently running on.

#### Optional flags:

* ```-r``` runs Blender after finishing

* ```-y``` installs even when version on server matches last installed version

* ```-n``` exits if last installed version matches version to be downloaded

* ```-k``` keeps temporary archive download.

* ```-t``` TEMP (Temporary file path. "./blendertemp" is the default. Unless -k specified it will be removed at the end of installation)

* ```-h``` shows help text

* ```-v``` shows version of the tool

### Verbose example:

```python BlenderUpdaterCLI.py -p C:\Tools\Blender -b 2.90.0 -o windows -n -r```

This will download the latest build of Blender 2.90.0 for 64bit Windows and copy it to C:\Tools\Blender
