Installation

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iankressin/eql/main/eqlup/install.sh | bash && eqlup

This command will:

1. Install eqlup (the EQL version manager)
2. Run eqlup to install the latest version of EQL

The installation process will:

1. Detect your operating system (Linux/MacOS)
2. Download the appropriate binary
3. Install it to /usr/local/bin/eql
4. Create a default configuration file at ~/eql-config.json with pre-configured RPC endpoints for various networks

Configuration

The ~/eql-config.json file contains RPC endpoints for different blockchain networks. You can customize it by adding new chains or modifying existing ones:
