The Crossplane CLI is a command-line tool for working with Crossplane, the cloud-native framework for platform engineering. It provides tools for building platforms on top of Crossplane and working with Crossplane clusters.

Crossplane is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation project.

Installation

The Crossplane CLI is a single binary, which we build for macOS, Linux, and Windows. You can download the latest version using the install script:

curl -sfL "https://cli.crossplane.io/install.sh" | sh

The script detects your operating system and CPU architecture and downloads the appropriate binary to the current directory. Note that it does not attempt to place the binary in your shell's $PATH, so you may want to move it.

To install a different version of the CLI, set XP_VERSION when running the install script:

curl -sfL "https://cli.crossplane.io/install.sh" | XP_VERSION=v2.3.1 sh

To install the latest build from our main branch, set XP_CHANNEL=master:

curl -sfL "https://cli.crossplane.io/install.sh" | XP_CHANNEL=master sh

Command reference documentation for the CLI can be found on docs.crossplane.io.
