Linux support #243

Closed jeblackburn closed 5 years ago

jeblackburn commented 5 years ago

I've started porting the install to support Linux. Is there any interest in adding my stuff to the official repo?

cjcjameson commented 5 years ago

@jeblackburn a different team at pivotal uses Ubuntu exclusively and they have a similar repo to this at https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cli-workstation

@xenophex @tjvman @willmurphyscode would you ever be willing to fork it into pivotal/?

tjvman commented 5 years ago

@cjcjameson That repo is (as the name implies) very CLI-specific about what it installs, so I don't think it seems like a good fit for folks looking for a general-purpose Linux workstation bootstrapper. There may be some stuff in there that could be adapted to a more portable script, though.

I'm curious as to why forking into the pivotal org would be needed - naively, I'd expect anyone who did want to base their own setup off of cli-workstation to just fork the repo as it currently stands. Am I missing something (such as some teams not being able to fork repos in the cloudfoundry org)?

@tjvman good points, all good to stay as is.
