This installing guide only shows what this Wiki editor believes is the best way to do, but you can try installing it in different way.

## Install using Gradle (Wrapper)
This method is pretty easy, just clone the entire repository (use ``git clone https://github.com/MangoPlex/Multipacks.git`` if you have Git, or just download it as ``.zip`` file, but like, whoever want to do that?), open a terminal inside the repository folder, then type ``./gradlew :multipacks-cli:installDist``.

To confirm that you have installed Multipacks CLI using Gradle, try typing ``multipacks-cli`` in your terminal. If you see some generic "missing command" error, you might have to restart your terminal.

Updating Multipacks CLI is also pretty easy. If you cloned with ``git`` command, use ``git pull`` then use ``./gradlew :multipacks-cli:installDist`` to install again.

## Install by downloading Multipacks CLI
### First time installation
- Choosing a location that you less likely ever touch it (something like ``C:\mpcli`` or ``/home/username/.mpcli``). We'll choose ``C:\mpcli`` for this installation guide.
- Download Multipacks CLI archive on [Releases](https://github.com/MangoPlex/Multipacks/releases) page.
- Extract all contents inside ``multipacks-cli.zip/multipacks-cli-VERSIONNUMBER/`` (``VERSIONNUMBER`` indicates the version of Multipacks CLI) to the folder that you've choosen (in this case, copy both ``bin/`` and ``lib/`` to ``C:\mpcli``).
- Add ``<choosen folder>/bin`` to the path environmental variable.

#### Adding to path environmental variable on Windows
- On Windows 10+, you can just type "envir" inside the search bar, look for "Edit the system environmental variables" and click on it. On other versions, you'll have to find "System Properties".
- Inside "Advanced" tab, click on "Environmental Variables..."
- There are 2 sections that can have path: User variables and System variables. If you are planning on allowing all local users to use Multipacks CLI, continue with System variable, otherwise just go for User variables. We'll go with User variables for this guide.
- Find ``Path`` under "Variable" column then click on it.
- Click the "Edit..." button
- Click "New" and type (or paste) ``<choosen folder>\bin``. Since we've choosen ``C:\mpcli`` to store Multipacks CLI installation, we'll type ``C:\mpcli\bin``.
- Click "OK" across all opened windows to confirm changes.
- Restart your terminal.

### Updating Multipacks CLI
- Download Multipacks CLI archive again
- Extract all contents inside ``multipacks-cli.zip/multipacks-cli-VERSIONNUMBER`` to the folder that is storing previous version of Multipacks CLI (in this case, copy both ``bin/`` and ``lib/`` to ``C:\mpcli`` once again)
- Restart your terminal
