Saucebase install

The one-command way to create a new Saucebase application.

macOS / Linux

curl -fsSL https://install.saucebase.dev | bash

Windows (PowerShell)

irm https://install.saucebase.dev/install.ps1 | iex

iex can't forward arguments, so it drops you into saucebase new and prompts for the project name. Or run saucebase new my-app yourself afterwards.

What it does

1. Installs PHP + Composer via php.new if they aren't already present.
2. Installs the global saucebase CLI (composer global require saucebase/installer).
3. Runs saucebase new to scaffold and configure your app.

PHP and Composer are the only tools it touches globally — everything else (Docker services, database, modules) is handled per-project by the CLI.

Already have PHP and Composer? Skip the script entirely:

composer global require saucebase/installer
saucebase new my-app

Fallback URL

Until install.saucebase.dev DNS is wired up, use the raw script directly:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/saucebase/install/main/install.sh | bash -s -- my-app

Hosting

This repo publishes to GitHub Pages via .github/workflows/deploy.yml. Point install.saucebase.dev at GitHub Pages with a DNS CNAME record → <org>.github.io (the workflow writes the CNAME file into the published site). The unix install.sh is also served at the bare root as index.html, so curl -fsSL install.saucebase.dev | bash works.
