Installation

The preferred installation method is to install globally with Composer. Refer the official composer documentation for more information on installing Composer globally. Run this at the command line:

$ composer global require eecli/eecli

Make sure your global Composer installation's bin folder is added to your PATH in your ~/.bash_profile (or ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc) so that you may run the binary eecli from the command line:

export PATH=~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH

For more installation methods, please see the full Installation guide in the Wiki.
