TAME - Installation

Installation

General

TAME is a command-line utility, so the installation of all versions of TAME involve opening an archive to a folder and pointing your OS's executable PATH variable to it.

Java

There are two ways to install TAME if you already have Java installed.

Via Shell (macOS and Linux only)

Open a command shell or Terminal window.
Type the following line (or copy and paste it into the prompt) and execute it.

On macOS:
```
curl -sSL https://tame-if.com/install.php?t=java-macos | bash
```
On Linux (you'll have to type your sudo credentials):
```
curl -sSL https://tame-if.com/install.php?t=java-linux | sudo bash
```
This will install TAME and set up tame, tamec, and tamep as shell commands.

If you did it properly and everything installed properly, typing tame (and pressing Enter) should produce something like this:

Type `tame --help` for help.

Via File

Ensure that Java's binary folder (bin) is visible from the PATH.
Download the installation package.
Decompress/unzip the package to an appropriate folder.
Add TAME's bin folder to your PATH environment variable (if TAME's folder is /opt/tame, the folder is /opt/tame/bin).

If you did it properly, opening up a new command line window and typing tame (and pressing Enter) should produce something like this:

Windows

Download the installation ZIP.
Unzip the package to a folder of your choosing using a package decompressor like 7-zip, or open it like a folder in Windows Explorer and copy the contents to another folder (you may need admin privileges for Program Files).
Add the bin subfolder in that folder to your PATH environment variable (if the full path to TAME is C:\Utilities\TAME, the folder to add would be C:\Utilities\TAME\bin). This differs by Windows version, but for most versions:
1. Open the Start Menu and type advanced system settings into the search bar.
2. Click "View advanced system settings"
3. Click the "Environment Variables..." button near the bottom of that window that appears.
4. In the "Environment Variables" window that pops up, find "Path" in the "System Variables" section and double-click it.
5. In Windows 8 and earlier, add a semicolon to the end of the value (;) and then the full path to the folder.
6. In Windows 10, click "New" and then add the full path to the folder into the list of paths.

If you did it properly, opening up Command Prompt or Powershell and typing tame (and pressing Enter) should produce something like this:

Via Terminal

Open a Terminal window.
Type the following line (or copy and paste it into the prompt) and execute it:
```
curl -sSL https://tame-if.com/install.php?t=macos64 | bash
```
This will install TAME and set up tame, tamec, and tamep as terminal commands.

Via File

Download the installation package.
Decompress the package by double-clicking it in Finder.
Move the created folder to a folder in your Home directory or another appropriate path.
Open a Terminal window.
Add the following line to your home directory's .bash_profile file (or .profile if it doesn't exist) with your favorite editor and save it:
```
export PATH="$PATH:/path/to/TAME/bin"
```
Where /path/to/TAME is the full path to the folder that TAME is in (make sure you point it at the bin subdirectory!).

If you did it properly, opening up a new Terminal window and typing tame (and pressing Enter) should produce something like this:
