This is a step-by-step guide to installing Stakpak CLI on Linux.

Prerequisites

Install Homebrew

Before installing Stakpak CLI, ensure the following prerequisites and dependencies are met.

Second, install homebrew:

After installation, you need to add Homebrew to your shell's PATH. The installer will typically provide instructions.

echo >> /home/user/.bashrc
echo 'eval "$(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> /home/user/.bashrc
eval "$(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"

To verify that Homebrew is installed correctly, run:

You will get "your system is ready to brew".
