pack v0.12.0

This is a beta release of the Cloud Native Buildpack local CLI. This platform implementation should be relatively stable and reliable, but breaking changes in the underlying specification may be implemented without notice. Note that pack is intended for local image builds, and thus requires a Docker daemon. The lifecycle should be used directly when building on cloud platforms.

Prerequisites

• The Docker daemon must be installed on your workstation or accessible over the network.

Install

macOS

If you're on macOS, you can use Homebrew:

$ brew install buildpacks/tap/pack

Linux

On Linux you can use the one of the following methods of installation.

Arch Linux

• pack-cli
• pack-cli-bin

Command

(export GH=buildpacks/pack; export LATEST=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/$GH/releases/latest | grep -o -E "https://.+?-linux.tgz"); echo "$LATEST"; curl -sSL "$LATEST" | sudo tar -C /usr/local/bin/ --no-same-owner -xzv $(basename $GH))

Others

Otherwise:

1. Download the .tgz or .zip file for your platform
2. Extract the pack binary
3. (Optional) Add the directory containing pack to PATH, or copy pack to a directory like /usr/local/bin

Run

Run the command pack.

You should see the following output
