Install
Description:
Installs a specified Godot engine version or uses the version defined in the gdproj.json
configuration file. This is particularly useful when setting up a project cloned from a repository.
So lets suppose you just cloned a project from a repository and you want to use the Godot version specified in the gdproj.json
configuration file.
Usage:
gdcli install [version]
Parameters:
version
(optional): The specific Godot version to install (e.g.,4.3.0-mono
). If omitted, the version specified ingdproj.json
will be used.
Behavior:
-
If a version is provided as an argument, gdcli attempts to install that specific version.
-
If no version is provided, gdcli checks the
gdproj.json
file for the required version. -
Downloads and installs the specified Godot version into the
dependencies
directory.
Example:
# Install a specific version
$ gdcli install 4.3.0-mono
Installing Godot 4.3.0-mono...
Successfully installed Godot 4.3.0-mono
# Install version from configuration
$ gdcli install
Installing Godot 4.3.0...
Successfully installed Godot 4.3.0
