mix escript.install
Installs an escript locally.
If no argument is supplied but there is an escript in the project's root directory (created with mix escript.build
), then the escript will be installed locally. For example:
mix do escript.build, escript.install
If an argument is provided, it should be a local path to a prebuilt escript, a Git repository, a GitHub repository, or a Hex package.
mix escript.install escript mix escript.install path/to/escript mix escript.install git https://path/to/git/repo mix escript.install git https://path/to/git/repo branch git_branch mix escript.install git https://path/to/git/repo tag git_tag mix escript.install git https://path/to/git/repo ref git_ref mix escript.install github user/project mix escript.install github user/project branch git_branch mix escript.install github user/project tag git_tag mix escript.install github user/project ref git_ref mix escript.install hex hex_package mix escript.install hex hex_package 1.2.3
After installation, the escript can be invoked as

directory to your PATH
environment variable. For more information, check the wikipedia article on PATH: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PATH_(variable)
