Installation Steps

Once you are ready and set up, let's install CocktailBerry on your device! With your terminal open, copy and paste the following command. Now it's time to sit back and relax.

$ wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AndreWohnsland/CocktailBerry/master/scripts/all_in_one.sh | bash

This will check all the requirements, download the software plus needed packages and create the autostart settings. After that, the machine is already ready to go. When you start the system, the program will run automatically. More information about general installation can be found in the docs.

If you want to, you can directly start the program with:

$ cd ~ && bash launcher.sh

The CocktailBerry UI will start and you can set everything up. To get to the settings, go to bottles and click the gear icon. To have a full insight of the setup options you can check the official documentation for that.

Nice, you are all set up! Enjoy your CocktailBerry experience.
