Installing the Compiler

Shell (Unix)

bash -c "$(curl https://bebop.sh)"
bebopc --version

npm Package

You can install the Bebop compiler from npm, either globally to make bebopc available on your PATH, or locally to a node package for use in npm scripts.

Globally

# yarn
yarn global add bebop-tools
# npm
npm install -g bebop-tools

bebopc --version

Locally

# yarn
yarn add --dev bebop-tools
# npm
npm install --save-dev bebop-tools

Manual Installation

Windows

1. Download the latest release.
2. Unzip it somewhere.
3. Add the directory containing the executable to your system PATH: Control Panel > System > Advanced System Settings > Environment Variables... > Path

Now you can invoke bebopc from anywhere in Powershell or CMD.

macOS and Linux

Follow these instructions in a terminal:

# Download the binary release.
mkdir ~/.bebop
cd ~/.bebop
wget https://github.com/RainwayApp/bebop/.../osx-x64.zip  # TODO

Or just download it from the releases page.

# Unzip it.
unzip osx-x64.zip
rm osx-x64.zip

# Should say "bebopc: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64" on macOS or something else appropriate on Linux
file bebopc

# Should say e.g. "bebopc 0.2.5-alpha"
./bebopc --version

# Add this location to the path. Add as a line to your .bash_profile or .bashrc to persist it between sessions.
export PATH=$PATH:$(pwd)

Now you can run bebopc from anywhere to invoke the compiler.

These instructions will still work on Apple Silicon using Rosetta.
