Installation

Pre-requisites

Catalyst Forge heavily relies on Earthly underneath the hood. All CI execution steps rely on calling Earthly targets defined in Earthfile's. It's recommended you install Earthly on your local system using their installation instructions.

Forge CLI

The forge CLI is the primary interface in which you, as a developer, will interact with Catalyst Forge. The CLI is written in Go and is distributed as a single binary that is available for multiple platforms.

To get started, head over to the releases and download the archive that is compatible with your local system. Once downloaded, extract the archive to find a single forge binary. It's recommended you place the binary in a location on your local system that is accessible by $PATH.

Validate

To validate that forge is installed correctly, you can run:

$ forge version
forge version 0.1.0 linux/amd64
config schema version 1.0.0
