Ockam v0.96.0

[mrinalwadhwa]

We have new release - v0.96.0

Ockam.app

We're building a desktop system tray App for Ockam.
If you're feeling adventurous, in this release you can try a super early version on macOS or linux by running:

brew install --cask build-trust/ockam/ockam-app --no-quarantine

Let us know what you think.

Ockam Command

We also shipped many small experience improvements to Ockam Command.

You can also install Ockam Command on Linux and MacOS systems using curl.

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSfL https://install.command.ockam.io | bash

This will download a precompiled binary and add it to your path.

Hey @mrinalwadhwa, I tried installing Ockam.app on my linux machine with the stipulated command above but couldn't install it because --cask doesn't work on linux. I did my research and its actually not implemented in linuxbrew: Linuxbrew/brew#742

So I was wondering if there's an alternative way to install Ockam.app on linux. Thank you and I look forward to your response.

[bL34cHig0]

Oh, I thought it could work on linux because of this:

But thank you for clarifying this 🙏

[mrinalwadhwa]

@bL34cHig0 to add to what @nazmulidris said above. The App does compile and can be run on Linux but we haven't yet done the work to package an installer for Linux. If you want to you could compile the ockam_app crate from source for Linux

@bL34cHig0 Thank you for pointing that out! 🙏🏽

@bL34cHig0 Actually wait let me correct myself, we do package it, we just don't have homebrew support for it.
You can get the deb package here https://github.com/build-trust/ockam/releases/download/ockam_v0.96.0/ockam.app.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.deb

@mrinalwadhwa oh thanks for sharing that. I'll check it out.
