# Boid CLI

> A linux command line interface for Boid 

### From a fresh Debian/Ubuntu install:
```shell
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.34.0/install.sh | bash

command -v nvm

nvm install node
```
##### This CLI has only been tested on Debian and Ubuntu based distributions.


### Setup

> install this package first

```shell
$ npm install boidcmd -g
```

##### REQUIRED: you must first install boinc-client package. 
sudo apt install boinc-client -y

Make sure to check that it is running, this can be done with the command:
```shell
$ boinccmd --get_state
```
if you get an authentication error code -155 , you will have to blank out the password
in the file /etc/boinc-client/gui_rpc_auth.cfg ( the file just needs to be empty)
and restart the boinc-client service.

```shell
$ service boinc-client restart
or
$ systemctl restart boinc-client
```

> now setup boid by typing the following command:

```shell
$ boidcmd setup
```

> additional commands can be found in the help menu

```shell
$ boidcmd help
```
