Getting Started

From Scratch

Install script

If you're installing the new circleci CLI for the first time, run the following command:

bash -c "$(curl -fSl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CircleCI-Public/circleci-cli/master/install.sh)"

This will install the CLI into the /usr/local/bin directory.

If you do not have write permissions to /usr/local/bin, you may need to run the above command with sudo.

Homebrew

brew install circleci

Snapcraft

sudo snap install circleci

Upgrade from existing CLI

If you installed the old CLI before, and you're on version less than 0.1.6, you need to run the following commands:

circleci update
circleci switch

This command may prompt you for sudo if your user doesn't have write permissions to the install directory, /usr/local/bin.

Updating after install

The CLI comes with a built in version managment system. You can check if there any updates pending and update if so using the following commands:

circleci update check
circleci update install

Configure the CLI

You may first need to generate a CircleCI API Token from the Personal API Token tab.

$ circleci setup

If you are using this tool on circleci.com. accept the provided default CircleCI Host.

Server users will have to change the default value to your custom address (i.e. circleci.my-org.com).

Note: Server does not yet support config processing and orbs, you will only be able to use circleci local execute (previously circleci build) for now.

Validate A Build Config

To ensure that the tool is installed, you can use it to validate a build config file.

$ circleci config validate
Config file at .circleci/config.yml is valid
