# installer64
🚀 **One-Line installers for Tools and Applications**
---
## 📌 Overview
**Installer64** is a collection of one-line installers designed to quickly deploy tools and applications in ephemeral environments (containers, CI/CD runners, etc.), and regular operating systems.
**⚠️ Important Note:** **Installer64** is **not** a package manager. It aims to provided a single step, non-interactive automated deployment experience regardless of the tool's installation method.
## 📦 Installation
### Minimum Requirements
- Bash V4: used by installer scripts.
- Sudo: most installers will require privileged execution. Used if not already running as root.
- Curl or Wget, Tar and GZip: used to download and unpack _Installer64_ and _BashLib64_
### Installation
Install directly from the repository:
```shell
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/automation64/installer64/main/src/bootstrap | sh
```
---
## 🚀 Usage
- Select a tool installer from: `/opt/installer64`
- (Optional) Customize installation parameters.
- Run the system-wide installer:
```shell
sudo -E /opt/installer64/install-APPLICATION_NAME
```
- Or the user-wide installer:
```shell
/opt/installer64/install-APPLICATION_NAME
```
---
## 🏗️ Architecture
### Standard directory structure
_Installer64_ is configured by default to use the following standard directory structure:
- System-wide installations:
- `/opt`: base destination for installations
- `/opt/`: application installation directory.
- `/usr/local/bin`: standard searchable path where application binaries are published to
- User-wide installations:
- `$HOME/at64`: base destination for installations
- `$HOME/at64/`: application installation directory.
- `$HOME/.local/bin`: standard searchable path where application binaries are published to
### Base Installer64 parameters
_Installer64_ scripts can be customized using the following parameters as shell environment variables:
- `INST64_BASHLIB64`: Bashlib64 location. Default: `/opt/bl64`
- `INST64_CLI_PROMOTE`: Create symlink to searchable path?. Default: `YES`
- `INST64_DEBUG`: Enable script debugging?. Default: `NO`
- `INST64_LOCAL_BIN`: Searchable path for system-wide executables. Default: `/usr/local/bin`
- `INST64_LOCAL_ROOT`: Linux well-known base path for local content. Default: `/usr/local`
- `INST64_OPT_ROOT`: Linux well-known base path for non-os packaged content. Default: `/opt`
- `INST64_REFRESH_PACKAGE_MANAGER`: Refresh package manager before installation and cleanup after?. Default: `YES`
- `INST64_REPLACE_INSTALLED`: Replace if already installed?. Default: `NO`
- `INST64_SYSTEM_WIDE`: Install system wide?. Default: `YES` if running as root, `NO` otherwise.
- `INST64_USER_BIN`: Searchable path for user-wide executables. Default: `${HOME}/.local/bin`
### Installer specific parameters
Additional parameters are available depending on the installation method.
Parameter name format: `INST64__`
Common parameters:
- `INST64__METHOD`: Installation method.
- `INST64__PLATFORM`: Hardware platform (e.g., linux_amd64).
- `INST64__TARGET`: Full path to installation destination.
