How-to

Download the Contrast CLI from the latest release and install it in your PATH:

Linux (x86_64)

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fLo contrast https://github.com/edgelesssys/contrast/releases/latest/download/contrast-x86_64-linux
sudo install contrast /usr/local/bin/contrast

macOS (Apple Silicon)

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fLo contrast https://github.com/edgelesssys/contrast/releases/latest/download/contrast-aarch64-darwin
sudo install contrast /usr/local/bin/contrast

note

If you download the binary via a web browser instead of curl, macOS may show a warning that the software can't be verified. Remove the quarantine attribute to resolve this:

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine contrast
