Installing the Command Line Interface

Install the PaaS CLI as a Python package.

Use the PIP tool pip3 to install the CLI Python package.

• On Windows:

  pip3 install -U psmcli.zip

• On Linux:

  sudo —H pip3 install -U psmcli.zip

  Note:

  On Linux, the sudo command is required in order to install a Python package with PIP if you installed PIP as the root user and to the default file system destination.

Note:

If your machine requires a proxy server in order to connect to the Internet, set the http_proxy and https_proxy environment variables prior to running PIP.

Windows example:

set http_proxy=http://myproxy.example.com:80
set https_proxy=https://myproxy.example.com:80

Linux example:

export http_proxy=http://myproxy.example.com:80
export https_proxy=https://myproxy.example.com:80
