File contents

binenv Plugin

Binary version manager that installs CLI tools via shims and tracks versions in a lock file. Keeps kubectl, terraform, and other binaries pinned per project.

Installation

go install github.com/devops-works/binenv@latest

Basic Usage

# Install a binary (latest version)
binenv install kubectl

# Install a specific version
binenv install kubectl 1.29.0

# List installed binaries
binenv list

# Show available versions
binenv available terraform

Typical Workflow

  1. Add a binenv lock file to your repo
  2. Run binenv install to sync all pinned tools
  3. Shims in ~/.binenv/shims route to the correct version

Usage Examples

  • "List all CLI tools managed by binenv"
  • "What terraform versions are available?"
