Problem with installing HACS

[markfarmeruk (MFARMER)]

I cannot get HACS to install via Github- what am I doing wrong?

[vingerha]

you are not reading/copying the instructions correctly

Please pay attention to the instructions

it is cd /config, not cd / config, and an enter after that

it is wget -O - https://gat hacs.xyz | bash - and not w get

still wrong

Thanks- Have tried, but now get this:

I am sorry for being direct but do you read what you are typing/copying?
Look at (e.g.) my screenshot…it is GET not GAT

[francisp (Francis)]

gethacs.xyz

not

gat hacs.xyz

Thank you!

Getting there, so what option do I now select?

[nickrout]

You are still not typing what is shown . There is a space between - and https

Thanks!

All now sorted. Thank you for bearing with me!!!

Let me translate, that may help you: command line in linux is made up of tokens separated by spaces

wget is a web downloader
-O is an option to wget, it sets where the download output goes
- is a shortcut for std output (don't worry too much, it is an imaginary but helpful pipe to put stuff
https://get.hacs.xyz is the place on the web that you are telling wget to get
| is a pipe command, take the output of the stuff on the left into the command on the right
bash is the command that executes a script
- this time is stdin, or the other end of the pipe

So that one line asks wget to download something from the website get.hacs.xyz and then treat it as a script which bash runs.

That is spot on, thanks for your assistance.
