# Clever Install (clin)
> It's actually not and installer, but a downloader, clin just sounds better than cldow IMHO
# What's it about?
It's just a tool to make downloading binaries for different platforms easier.
## For example
If you want to build a docker image, but you want to make it available on different platforms. But your tool needs other tools as dependencies, e.g. `helm`.
To install helm on Alpine you need to use curl, wget, or something. You need to choose a version, an operating system, and an architecture. For me, it was obvious that you must be able to use `uname -m`...
```BASH
uname -m
aarch64
uname -m
x86_64
uname -m
arm64
```
While release naming is also not very consecutive
- release_example.amd-macos.zip
- another-release-for-amd64-macos.zip
- linux-aarch64-release.zip
# How to install?
## Install
### Download
Get executable from github releases
Prebuilt binaries exist for **Linux x86_64** and **MacOS arm64** and **x86_64**
Don't forget to add the binary to $PATH
```
$ curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/allanger/clever-install/main/scripts/download_clin.sh | bash
$ clin -h
```
### Docker
You can use the `latest` or a `tagged` docker image
```
$ docker pull ghcr.io/allanger/clever-install:latest
$ docker run ghcr.io/allanger/clever-install:latest clin -h
```
