Installation Error

[atomsett]

As I know next-to-nothing about node.js, I am unable to troubleshoot the install.

Do you already have Node and NPM installed? If not then you'll want to go to npmjs.com and do that.

To verify those are both installed, use these commands:

Node -v Npm -v

If those both provide you with version numbers then you performed the install correctly. Next, cd into the trtl-cli folder and perform an install by using the command npm install.

From that point, you should be able to use the trtl commands from location.

Looks good now try any of the commands. You can start by just typing trtl and that should show you available commands.

I deleted the trtl-cli folder, downloaded the github repo again - then ran the install as documented in the readme.. and trtl --help worked! Thanks for your help!

Glad to help!
